Misson Statementとの関係性 / Connection to our Mission Statement

The ENGLISH INTERMEDIATE course is a component of the teaching credentials program, which builds on the ENGLISH FUNDAMENTALS course to further help students develop the core English language skills of reading, writing, listening and speaking to be successful English teachers in Japan. By actively participating in class activities, students will have the confidence and ability to strengthen their ʻFrontier Spiritʼ and bridge the gap between New Asia and the rest of the world.

The ENGLISH INTERMEDIATE course provides students with further opportunities to learn the English language and productive & receptive skills in preparation to achieve the CEFR B2 level at the TOEIC® Listening & Reading score 785-940 score range. This course has a special focus on grammar and vocabulary learnt through reading, writing, listening, speaking and communication tasks that reinforce previously covered materials throughout the current academic term and from their senior high school coursework, but with an increase in the complexity of the materials presented and the tasks required of students in the ENGLISH FUNDAMENTALS course.

授業調査に対するコメント Comment on Course Evaluation

We could get opportunity for practice.

"・わからないところや説明ができなくて困っているところを聞きに行けば、わかりやすく丁寧に教えてくれました。
・worksheetを確認してもらえば、間違っているところを直して送ってくれました。"

この授業は実践で英語を使って、先生になる教習体験ができる授業で、英語の語彙力の向上または英語コミュニーケーションが十分身に染みる授業ですので、よかったです。

学生が主体となって、授業を展開することで教えることやプレゼンのスキルを学ぶことができた。
