Kenta and the teachers at Study Garden were absolutely amazing, I can not recommend them as a host enough! Thank you for such a great time and immersing me in true Japanese culture.

My first time volunteering and I loved it. Kenta's family is so welcoming and lovely, they made me a part of their family and culture from day one. It was so fun playing with their kid and talking to them! At the school, I met wonderful volunteers who'll be always in my heart, we made so many plans together. The children we had to teach English to were wonderful too, I'm going to miss everyone. This one experience, it's going to remain in my soul forever. ¡Muchas gracias por todo! ¡¡Nos vemos pronto!!

This has been such a great experience, the classes are very fun and easy to teach and the stay was very complete. They were so helpful in anything we needed and in the spare time we were able to explore beautiful parts or Tsuru and Kawakuchiko. I totally recommend this experience to all people that is looking to have a deeper experience with Japanese culture and looking forward to teach English and collaborate with other volunteers.

We spent a little over a month at Study Garden, and it truly was a wonderful experience. Connecting with the children, helping them improve their English, and being surrounded by such positive energy made everything incredibly memorable. I'm very grateful to Kaede and Fumi-san for always making sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed—they took care of us so well. We also want to thank Kenta for giving us this opportunity. We hope to come back someday.

We really enjoyed our stay in Study Garden. Kenta-San, Fumi-San, and kaede were very nice and taught us a lot. I appreciated Fumi-San being able to pick us up from the bus station. I appreciated the flexibility in schedules. The living area was kept clean. The other workdpackers were engaging and nice. We will miss you all!
