Hello.
a: I studied reading and listening on Net Academy. I read stories about Beatles and other story for twenty minutes and the level was two and three. It's interesting! I could read more quickly than before. After that, I did advance mode for twenty minutes. This was practice of listening with typing. I like it. Because this mode need to understand and catch words propery, quickly. If I could not do quickly, a dog that looks fierce pursues me on the screen. It is a thrill and fun for me!! And I studied on ESL Quiz site that linked by grammar site. It was There were many words that I did not know, so I learned alot of new words. In this quiz, I chose a word that fits an illustrative sentence. So, I could studied how to use the word in a sentence.
b: I'm glad to be able to read more quickly than before. And I like doing advance mode! It is like a game, so I could learn with enjoying. I think that this is important for people to learn something. Moreover, It is great to we can use many many web sites such as Ferris online Lab, this site has a lot of link, and the amount of these is enough to learn English.
c: I learned many new words, and how to use them in sentences. For example, bind, hinder, and so on.
Bind→I bind a hostage to his chair. Bind means to tie someone so that cannot move or escape
Hinder→ The heavy rain hindered traffic. Hinder means to make it difficult for something to develop or succeed
And also, I practiced and learned that how to listen many words with typing or writing on.
d: To add fun into study is important for me. And it will be effective way at learning English. Also, I had studied on same site;Net Academy before, but I found that to use some kind of sites is important and fresh for me!
Thank you.

Hello! How did you spent today, Culture Day? Many kinds of school festivals are held. Did you go there^^?
a: We could go to new web site; "Ferris Online English Lab" at last Friday. I studied listening in ELLO in this site. I listened "grade" which was spoken by Americans. It was about grade of children at school. I was going to try to listen without English text after listen some times but the listening was so difficult and quick that I only just listened with English text. It was different from Net Academy. Net Academy is a program that is made to learn English for Japanese like me, but there are no Japanese in ELLO, and the speakers spoke in a peculiar way each other. There were more words which I could not catch than Net Academy. The speakers are real, but Net Academy is just sound. ... Next I listened "Physical Education" for about thirty minutes include "grade". Physical Education was spoken by American man and Australian woman. They spoke about children don`t have enough time to exercise. They pointed that children are apt to do computer...and etc. These story were interesting but I was sad because I could not understand contents without English text. I depend on text. And there are questions about these stories at side space. It was good to confirm if I could understand their talk. I listened again and again and read text, so I could answer these questions. And I listened and watched some different sites. There were kids animation, historical story animal story and so on. One site has many sites, so I could link a lot of interesting site.
b: I am glad to go to new web site. Ferris Online has some kind of sites which Net Academy has not. I feel that I listen real English. I was surprised to listen real English. It is very important and interesting.
c: I learned new words and phrases in ELLO. And how pronounced by each speaker. There are as many speaking way as there are speakers.
d: I am going to continue listening! To continue is important. And I like listening music, so I will listen Western music. Although ELLO is difficult for me, I want to use this site to develop my skill. There are many many sites that will fit me to learn English. The environment around me is nice. To develop my skill depend on me...!!

a: We had much time to study ourselves. So I could try to do something what I wanted to learn. I learned listening for about twenty minutes. The unit was about horoscope and the level was three. I listened some phrases again and again. I could understand the content by expecting from the tytle, so this unit was a little more easy. Then I dictated the unit which was I listen, for ten minutes. I took some mistakes because I could not catch words. I tried to listrn again, and get a hint. While, after understood content with English text, I could answer all three questions at quiz. I am still depending on reading to understand contents. I will train! After that, I studied reading for thirty minutes. The level were two and three. I read from not right to left but left to right, my reading pace became more speedy. And I tried shadowing, it was very effective for me to listening and reading. I dictated the unit which were I read, for ten minutes. I tried to listen a lot of words one time as possible as I could. It was so interesting though it was difficult!
b: I think that dictation is fun and good training for me! It is like a game; writing correct spells running away from a pig. These spells were only spoken by speaker, I could not see spells so I depended on listening these phrases. And I became more carefully to listen when I dictated. I felt how concentrating is important!
c: I learned new words; unfold, primarily, and more words. And also I could learn pronunciations of these words at the same time by using pronounce system.
d: I think that understanding not everything but something important is good point at reading and listening. So I ignore words not important. I must choose words if I should pick up when I listen and read. This lead to understand quickly.

Today is already 20.October, it`s cold (*o*)!!
a: I studied listening for about thirty or forty minutes. I took many time to understand meaning of phrases, so I could only 2 units. These levels are two and three. Though I could find out meaning with English text, I could not do without the text. I realized that how I depend on English text! It is too bad. So, I tried to listen without the text. Then there were several words which I could not listen and understand although I could do if the text were. I found out that my weak point is phrases that are not read separate a word and another word. I changed speaker`s speed to more slow, then I listened again and again. Sooner, I didn`t feel that I become able to listen only speaker, I tried to returned to speed again. Now I wonder if I can development my skill of listening but I think it is important that changing the speed for myself when I can not listen. So I try to do. I hope my weak point will be strong point. Then I took a brake, I studied on Dojo of reading course for ten minutes. This level was four, And I learned several new words and wrote on my list for example sincerity and deserve. Then I studied reading until the class was finished. The level was three. I became sad because my reading pace was too slow!! I take many time to understand meanings of words. I need to practice that understanding meanings at the same time when I read. Reading and understanding at the same time is very difficult for me, I will do my best! I think that shadowing is helpful these weak point, so I will use this way next time.
b: Probably this was the first time that I studied long time and tried some kind of study courses. I am happy because I found out my weak points and there are some way to conquer these things in Net Academy. Net Academy has TOEFL exercises, it is very useful! I want to use these texts as possible as I can.
c: I learned about new words, I had already written in the above, for example sincerity, deserve, and something else. And a sentence that is spoken without pauses between words is more difficult to listen. The first time I understood the meaning of like this sentence is when I saw an English text. Unless the words are spoken with pauses, I can not listen right. But I learned that how to listen the peculiar phrases seeing the script.
d: I realized what I need to speed for reading! Even if I have some weak points, there are many solutions like Net Academy. So I never give up.

And I think speaking is the most difficult for me!! I become so nervous to speak to people. I do not think of good words and vocabularies. Grammar study is I studied at junior high school and high school, so perhaps I can understand grammar. But my pronounciation is too bad to speak. Like this, my goals are increasing!!
3: I need to practice and to speak,write,and many things and I need to used to doing such a things to reach my goals.
