Reflection

This class had many things to do so it was difficult. I'm not good at computer so making PowerPoint Slides and blog, putting manuscripts on my blog were hard for me.
Good points about this class are group members change everytime, do presentation before many classmates and I enjoyed other group's presentation. Group members change everytime so I could make friends with my classmates and do presentation before many classmates so I could get accustomed to doing presentation before many people.
Bad points about this class is it was short time to next presentation so connect PowerPoint Slides with group member was not easy. I wanted to check my manuscripts by teacher and correct them. I couldn't know grammar is correct or not.
Through this class, I could learn ability to write, read and do presentation. Use these ability,I want to continue studying English and improve them.

Power-Up Tutorial: Departmemt of British and American Studies


I will explain about freshman Power-Up Tutorial of department of British and American Studies.

In semester One, first, we have to settle into speaking English with natives because most people have learned English from Japanese teacher in high school and at once we learn essential classroom English and conversation skills. After building general foundation of useful English, we will learn to develop our conversation strategy skills which will enable us to participate in a broader variety of English speaking situations.

In semester Two we will read ‘Asahi Weekly’ every other week. By now, we will have the skills and confidence to express our opinions and discuss various real life issues with our classmates and teachers. We can know news in the world through reading ‘Asahi Weekly’ .
