【講義概要】
Focused on speaking and listening skills at an intermediate-college level, this course develops speaking and listening skills needed for functional everyday use. Students will enhance their fluency and accuracy for effective communication and interaction using English. Listening practice includes a range of skills from identifying key words and expressions, apprehending the overall message, and inferring attitude or reason. And within similar contexts as that practiced for listening, students advance their skill for extending conversation, expressing ideas and opinions, making effective presentations, and so on.
【学習到達目標】
Students are expected to more fully (1) understand generally clear standard speech; (2) grasp the main point of broadcast news or similar programs ; (3) enter unprepared into social conversation but participate; (4) connect phrases in speech meaningfully
【履修上の注意】
Students will learn how to communicate in English, with few pauses and with informative answers. Students will also learn how to ask and answer questions in a conversational manner and greatly improve their communication skills.
The important information will always be on the whiteboard in the classroom so always pay attention to information written there.
【事前準備学習】
Each student should make sure that he or she practices listening, asking questions, and answering questions. Practice thinking of what your partner might say or ask you and without pauses or silence as that is not natural in English.
