I am often in my office, B-313, but not on Thursdays or Fridays. Just come by, and knock on my door. If you want to be sure I'll be there, make arrangements with me before or after class.

The purpose of this course is to give students opportunities to practice using their English in order to help them become more confident and comfortable doing so and more fluent.

This course will be conducted only in English. All of the materials and speaking and writing and teaching will be in English. Translating back and forth between English and Japanese is not a part of this course. Each student needs to make effort to use only English while in class. Using Japanese in class will prevent students from making the best use of the opportunities to practice using English and will prevent other students from having the most opportunities to practice using English. Therefore, the final grades of students who use Japanese in class regularly will be very low.

Speaking activities will be the most common activity in class, for example, speaking with classmates in pairs or small groups and asking and answering questions orally. There will also be some writing done in class. The homework will involve reading in order to prepare for quizzes and for that day's speaking and writing activities.

Improving foreign language abilities takes a lot of time and effort. If you really want to improve your English, then you must do more than just the required work in the English courses you are taking. A few other things you can do on your own to help you to improve your English abilities are read books, newspapers, and magazines in English, watch or listen to the news, interviews, or other broadcasts in English, write a journal or diary in English, speak English into a recorder and listen to it afterward, meet with friends and speak only in English for a predetermined length of time (maybe half an hour), and remember new words or grammatical structures that you come across while reading or listening to English.
