speaker notes

1. I'd like to tell you about my history of my learning languages. I learned many languages in my all life.

2. This time, I'd like to talk about learning English in my high school.This is out line.

3. When I was high school student, I studied English very hard because I had entrance exam for universities. Actually, I wanted to go other public university. Now, I go to Kumamoto Gakuen University. It is not the school which I wanted to go.

4. I would like to tell you about how to study English. I think that it has three important points of my studying.

5. First of all, I studied a lot of words. I needed to have English vocabulary for passing entrance exam, so I bought English words card and studied over and over. Then, if I had unmemorable cards, I wrote words and pronounce again and again. The photo are words card and idiom card. The words card are called "Tango Ou", it means "words of prince".

6. The other way was listening to CD of pronouncing many English words. I have a book which called "Yumetan". It meant that "your dream can realize!". Yumetan is the book for memorizing of English words. What a funny name the book was!  The book was used by my English class of my school. Sometimes I had a quiz in the class, so I studied very hard!

7. Second, I had to read long sentence. In common English exam, it was made long sentence. 

The picture is the common exam of English. It is not one of my favorite exams. I hate the exam very much!!

8. However, it was the hardest for me to read long English sentence, so I practice reading long sentence any number of times. Sometimes, I was taught some hangs by my teachers. I became more and more read better reading English long sentence than before.

9. Next, I had to write English composition. I needed to write English sentences in 2nd exam for public university.

10. One of the hang was using simple words, and make simple English sentences. I changed the questions of Japanese to simple Japanese, and changed Japanese to English. Then, the Japanese sentences should be easy for making English sentences. The other hang was nothing, anyway, I made them and corrected right sentences.

11. In addition, when I was 2nd grade of high school, I listened to radio for study English. It was very basic and simple, but I reviewed basic English. The radio's channel was broadcasting every ordinary day. I listened to the channel every time.

12. As a result, although I could not go the school I wished, but it is good choice that I go to Kumamoto Gakuen University. It is precious experience that I studied all subjects very hard. I will make use of the experience to the full, and I hope I will get a job.

13. That's All! Thank you for listening!!
