英語学習方法〜How To Study With Effortless English

みなさんこんにちは。
いつもブログを読んでいただき、ありがとうございます！
さて、今日はEffortless Englishメンバーが、サイトを使っていかに勉強しているかをご紹介します。
みなさんにも参考にして頂き、自分の好きなリスニング教材や英語のコンテンツを使って、この方法も試してみて下さい！

では、How To Study With Effortless English！！

1. Listen to the Vocabulary Explanation a few times. Once you understand it, listen to it at least one time every day for 1-3 weeks.

2. Listen to the Mini-Stories a few times. Try to re-tell the stories, using the new words/phrases. Listen to each Mini-Story lesson (regular and POV) at least one time every day for 2-4 weeks.

3. Read the Learning Guide, and review new vocabulary, a few times.

4. Listen to the Article & read the Text, a few times.

5. Listen to the Article a few times (without reading). Listen to each article at least once every day, for 2-4 weeks.

6. Listen to the Article sentence by sentence. If you are ready to speak, pause after each sentence and copy the pronunciation- especially the intonation. If you are not ready to speak, just listen carefully too the intonation and rhythm.

7. If you have time, write a Forum Comment about the topic, use some of the new vocabulary.

下記はEffortless Englishの具体的なレッスン内容について説明しています。Free Report (English)より抜粋。

Vocabulary Lessons

This is a listening lessons. You learn new vocabulary by listening to me discuss new words. You do not study lists in a book. You do not learn by reading.

I teach you important new words and phrases. These are words that educated native speakers actually use-- not textbook English.

You download (get) the Vocabulary Lessons from the website after you join. The lessons are MP3 files, so you can play them on your iPod, MP3 player, or computer-- anywhere you want.

TPRS Mini-Story Lessons

Next, you download (get) the Mini-Story Lessons. I use the powerful TPRS method to teach you to speak English fluently. This is a Listen First lesson. You do not read the story, you listen to it many times and practice it.

In this lesson, you improve pronunciation and you learn how to use vocabulary correctly. The TPRS Mini-Story lesson is the most powerful English teaching method I know. Use it to speak naturally and fluently.

Text Article and Vocabulary Guide

Next you read a real English article that uses your new vocabulary. This article is written at a university level, but I make it easy to understand with a "side by side" vocabulary guide.

Reading is also input. Most of your time with Effortless English will be spent listening, but a little reading will help you learn vocabulary quickly.

I give you the meaning of difficult words next to the article text, so you don't waste time using a dictionary. Obviously, since you have already learned some of the words in the first two lessons-- you understand the article quickly and easily.

Point of View Mini-Stories

Point of View Mini-Stories teach you grammar. How? You listen to the same story told from many points of view. For example, you might first listen to a story in the present. Then you will listen to the same story told in the past (it will start with "10 years ago"). Then you will listen to the same story told with a mix of past & perfect tenses (it will begin with "Since 2004"). Then you will listen to the same story told in the future ("Next year...").

You don't need to study grammar rules. You don't need to memorize grammar. You just listen to these stories many times and automatically learn the grammar.

Movie Lessons

As a member you also get movie lessons. I use an English language movie to teach you conversational English. You learn common idioms and slang. You also practice your pronunciation. Each movie lesson includes-- the audio for a movie scene, the script for the scene, a Mini-Story for the scene, a Point of View Story for the scene, and a Commentary for the scene.

Pronunciation Lessons

As a member, you also get pronunciation lessons. I teach you to speak with a standard American accent. You learn the "music" of American English in short and easy lessons. When you do this for 15 minutes every day, you will speak English like an American.
