The Hokkaido International Foundation (HIF) offers an eight-week summer intensive program on Japanese language and Japanese culture every year. This program consists of the three major components as below. “Homestay”, “Japanese Language Class” and “Independent Study” are closely related to one another in order to promote students’ learning. Former participants found it important to establish a balance of the three so that they can take full advantage of the program. None of the three can be downgraded or lost.
