LETTER FROM HAPPY ENGLISH SCHOOL　　May 14th 2025

Hello. How is everything is going? Now that the Golden Week is over, it is time to get down to business. You need to seriously study English not only to do well at school and pass qualification tests, but also to describe situations, explain things, and express your ideas and opinions-the last of which is the most important for communication. At Happy English School we focus on developing communication skills while also building vocabulary, grammar knowledge, speech fluency and accuracy, reading comprehension, listening competence and writing proficiency.

There is a long way to go. As I have told you, there is no shortcut for language learning. It is essential to always be ready to read, listen, speak and write English. You have already set sail out on the vast sea, so what you need to do is to fully immerse yourself in English.

Fortunately, you might have the opportunity to visit the World Expo. There you will have some chances to speak English with foreigners. You should make the most of this amazing opportunity to communicate with people from many different countries.

English is meant to be used in real life situations, and I encourage every student to use English when telling me something or asking a question. To truly acquire, English, you need to say things repeatedly or write extensively. Think about how babies acquire their native tongue, and you couldn’t agree more that even adults should follow a similar process. Successful language learners are those who develop their skills through trial and error. We will help correct your mistakes and provide practice so that you can feel more comfortable with the language and gain a strong command of it.

We will support you by guiding you toward achieving a high level of proficiency effectively. We will carefully monitor your progress and make sure you stay on the right track.

ゴールデンウィークも終わりました。本格的に英語の学習に取り組みましょう。

中学生や高校生は中間テストがあり、また英検も5月31日（土）にテストがあります。

もちろんコミュニケーションを図るための英語を練習してもらっているので、当教室では、「英語で何でも言えるように」「雑談でも何でも英語でどう言うか」教えています。ノートに書きこんで何でも覚えるようにしましょう。何でも覚えておくと役に立ちます。　

覚えるには、「何度も書く」「何度も言う」というアクションが必要です。覚えられるように普段から繰り返すことを習慣づけしましょう。語学学習には、記憶力と英語を使い、間違った場合にはその間違いから学ぶ姿勢が大切です。記憶力を高めるためにも自分の言葉としてアウトプットする練習を積み重ねましょう。状況を描写したり、物事を説明したり、自分の考えや自分の意見を表現することに積極的に取り組んでいきましょう。　

自分の考えや意見がないのは論外です。知識を持ち社会の事象を抑え、自分の考えをクリアーに言えるように常に学びましょう。いろいろなことがわかることは、楽しいことです。
