KEG STARS - Congratulations to STARS award winners!〜目標の英語スコアアップ達成〜
2023.04.11 英語系
At the beginning of the academic year we hand out certificates for our STARS program. Students are awarded STARS certificates based on scores in public English tests such as TOEIC or EIKEN. AK was one of many students who had successfully reached the level to be awarded a STARS certificate - in her case she got two!
(国際英語学科では、学期始めにSTARSプログラムの修了証を授与します。学生たちは、TOEICや英検などの英語能力試験のレベルごとに設定された「星」の修了証を受け取ります。2023年度前期に修了書を獲得した学生の一人、AKさんは、なんと今回2つの証書を同時に授与されました!)

In the Department of International English at HJU, we encourage students to make English a part of everyday life as much as possible. We asked AK in which ways she makes English part of her life, in addition to the traditional classroom/homework experience.
(国際英語学科では、学生たちに毎日の生活の中でできるだけたくさん英語に触れてもらいたいと考えています。AKさんには、授業や課題といった一般的な勉強方法以外でどのように英語を生活に取り入れているのかを尋ねました。)
Q. 大学入学後の英語の勉強について教えてください。
A. 私は大学生になってVTuberにハマり、
When I became a university student, I was into VTubers who speak English. I often watch their YouTube stream, which is my hobby and studying English. I highly recommend VTubers because their voice quality is good and their English is easy to understand.
Q. TOEICや英検なども含め英語向上のための勉強法は?
A. まずは英語に慣れるために、
First of all, in order to get used to English, I think it is important to create an environment where you can always touch English in your life. Specifically, I look up the meaning of the English lyrics of the songs I usually listen to, and change the language of my smartphone to English.
So, congratulations to AK on achieving the 3 and 4 STARS certicate goals. It is great to see students finding more and more creative ways to add English into their everyday lives.
(AKさん、星3つと星4つの達成、おめでとうございます。学生たちは、英語に毎日触れるために色々な方法を試します。これから、どんな新しいアイデアや工夫で学生たちが英語力を伸ばしていくのか楽しみにしたいと思います。)
