Music videos

Today, I will introduce studying English by reading lyrics on music videos. On YouTube, there are music videos that come with lyrics and Japanese subtitles. I think that if you learn while listening to music, you will enjoy it, you will find your favorite singers, and some interesting songs and you will remember. Of course, if you watch a music video while reading the English subtitles and Japanese subtitles, I think that it is easy to understand because there is a translation. Also, in this class there was a week we watched previews of movies, television, movies etc in English with English subtitles. I think that music video are also good for listening practice while reading the lyrics. The lyrics are like subtitles in English. If you can't hear some words, you can look at the lyrics and understand. If you don't understand some words, meaning, you can write it on a note or notepad to memorize later.

I bought in the explanation DVD of One Direction's lyrics about 3 years ago. A booklet was also attached. The contents of the lyrics are detailed and it tells what kind of story songs are in the booklet. I found I could can study English while having fun. On the DVD, you can watch the normal music video first, then you can watch the music video with English subtitles.

Extensive Reading's good points

イメージ
In my college life, I studied English at home and at school, I took English exams, I read books of English conversation. But when I studied English and thought that it was “difficult”, I felt tired feelings and my motivation disappeared. I did my homework, read a story, answered some questions, and wrote my impression, but if I didn't understand the sentences, I stopped reading…… But if you do it like that, the deadline will surely come. Even school and examinations come. I can’t not do my homework. Then, how can you motivate yourself? It is good if you can enjoy studying English. If you enjoy studying English, and you can think you want to learn English better, you can do your homework enjoyably. If so, how can you study and have fun? About that, I would like to introduce my ideas on this blog. Of course, it is my recommended study method, but your feelings of studying may change. Please try it. This theme is extensive reading . At Tsurumi University, we have an event calle

Watching Overseas Drama for Learning English

イメージ
This time I would like to write about using overseas drama for learning English. If you watch an overseas drama once, you will be captivated and you will want to watch it again, right? Overseas dramas are different from Japan, and the story is very long.   There are many good points that you can learn English by watching drama. First, listening skills will improve with the English voice. Moreover, it becomes easier to understand English with subtitles. More than anything, the conversation used in overseas drama has expressions that can be used even in our daily life. I think it's an effective way to learn English it you are interested or you watch a drama you like. And if you watch any overseas drama series, you will hear the same words many times. Listening to it, you can understand that "this expression has come again and can be used in this scene and various places". I think that it is easiest to learn English most by watching the drama you like.

Diary

イメージ
In my last blog, I want to introduce as a way to learn English diary. The more you write in your diary, you will be able to look back on your memories in the future. When you read it, you will think that your English will improve even more. Writing diary is a person worried about becoming three day boss, that is fine. I think that I don't have to write in my diary every day. It is good to write only on a day when you have fun memories. When I feel sad or when I have forgotten to write in my diary, I shouldn't worry? I should stop writing for a while. It's ok to write at my favorite pace. At the bookstore and the library at the school has books that how to write  a schedule notebook in English, frequently used words to write a diary, and so on. You can memorize even if you don't understand some words look at the book and write words. I also started to write diary after watched the overseas drama "Vampire Diaries" I introduced previously. It's a lot
