What do I do to improve my English skills?

  Although I told you in the other article before, I am writing articles and diaries in English to improve my English writing skill.  And today, I'll show you what I do to make my English better besides them. 

  First, I try to learn new words with the English-English dictionary that I bought recently.  In the dictionary, English words are explained in English sentences, so I can think and memorize only in English. 

  Second, I use a book called 発信型英語 類語使い分けマップ.  In this book, words that have almost the same meanings are put together.  Using this book, you can remember many words at once easily.

  Third, I imitate English sentences using and listening to the CD with the book, 決定版英語 シャドーイング超入門.  It definitely helps you because you can learn how a native speaker speaks English with the CD.  I mean you can master intonation and which words to emphasize.

  Fourth, I try to listen to English videos on Youtube.  Sometimes I watch dramas or movies overseas.  By doing this, I was able to catch what natives said more than before.  And you can learn English enjoying this way!

  And the last, I write down new words I learned through the above English study.  Every time I come across a new word, I try to check them out because I forget them soon if I don't write them down.

  That's it.  Thank you for reading!  Bye✋
