Let's have a fun conversation, beginners to advanced learners welcome!! 私は、言語というのは、コミュニケーションの道具だと考えています。たとえ教科書で学んだとしても、それを実際に使う機会がなければ、それは全く無意味です。 正しい文法を習得し、それを使うことは重要です。しかし、相手の話すことを理解し、自分の考えを伝えられなければ、会話は成り立ちません。 私の授業は、言語を良いツールとして使いこなし、慣れ親しんでいただけるように、自然な会話から始めます。 I think that language is simply a tool used in communication. It's meaningless if you learn a language, but don't know how to use it. Of course, it’s important to learn correct grammar and usage, but if you can’t understand and convey your opinion, you won't be able to have meaningful conversations. I consider language to be a tool, and in our class, I want to teach you how to use that tool effectively. That's why our classes always start from natural conversation.
