Improve your English with lip Reading!
Hello Everyone I hope you have been having a great week.
Today I would like to talk about reading lips and how it can help you become better at English.
Learning a different language can prove to be quite difficult. Especially one that has pronunciation and grammar much different to your own. There are many different strategies you can employ to help make learning a bit easier and faster. One such strategy is lip reading.
How does lip reading work?
When listening to someone speak in your targetted language, you can look at their lips while they are speaking. Your brain will recognise the sounds and the movements of the lips and the mouth. It will make it easier to remember how to pronounce a word when you are able to recognise the movements of the lips` and the mouths of people who speak the language.
If you think about your own language. You are able to recognise mouthed words (words spoken without sound) very easily even though you cannot hear anything. To practice you can watch a TV show in your targeted language and look at the lips of the speaker. Listen for one minute. Listen again with the sound off and see if there are any words you can recognise. If you can recognise a word it means that your brain has made a connection between the sounds and the lip movement.
This is also useful for learning an accent. British and Americans prnounce words differently so their mouth movements are different. So much so that I can recognise that a person is British with the sound off the TV by looking at how they move their mouth.
Try it out! Lip reading is an easy way to help boost your language skill!
Till next time!

小学校でも英語の授業が始まったことで、英語学習の重要性が高まっています！
しかしながら、英語のテストの点数に一喜一憂したり、
目先の成績のための勉強になってしまっている方がいらっしゃるのも現実です。
アミティーでは、0歳半～高校生までの一貫したカリキュラムにより、
1学期ごと、テストとテストの間、といった短期目標ではなく、
長い目で見た長期目標を立てていくことができるのが魅力です！
例えば、小学校クラスの場合、
低学年の間は、しっかり基礎を身につけて語彙数を増やしていき、
高学年では語彙だけでなく文法にも目を向け、資格試験も視野に入れられる英語力を身につけます。
アミティー岡山青江校では、7/30～8/4の期間でプライベートレッスンを実施しています！
〇英検対策
〇TOEIC/TOEIC Bridge対策
〇クラフトレッスン
〇リーディング強化
〇語彙力強化 ...etc
得意を増やす期間にしましょう！
Hello Everyone. I hope you have been having a great week!
I would like us to discuss Interactive Seminars.
We have a computer room at each Amity School Branch and that is where we have Interactive Seminars. Students use the computers and do educational programs that are catered towards their level and age. They can even practice taking EIKEN tests!
Students have a chance to practice their reading and listening skills as well as improving their vocabulary. They can choose from a variety of programs that they will find intersting, educational and fun!
They can take Interactive lessons five times during Summer Seminars and if they would like to continue more times after that!
I highly recommend taking Interactive lessons! To help take your English to the next level!
Till next time!
