c: This week I didn't get new vocabulary, but I could listen video what to say.

d: Last Saturday, November 27, I had TOEIC. This is first time, so it is very very difficult!!

a: On November18, I used new site to study English. It is called Ferris Online English Lab. First, I chose National Geographic KIDS of Listening. I watched video of animation. Characters in there are funny and story is very interesting, I like it. English using in the story isn't easy but animation help me understand the story.

b: Ferris Online English Lab is very very difficult for me because all is English. Native English is fast and pronunciation is natural, so I can learn real English. And variety of sites are in there.

c: The site is difficult to get more vocabulary than Netacademy. But there are a lot of word I don't know yet. The reason I didn't get it is my English is very poor, I think. I notice I should study English especially vocabulary.

d: I want to use this site to study English, if I don't have English class in the day. Increasing to hear, read and see English is important. And library of ferris university have English books and newspaper. So I am able to get vocabulary and level up my skill to use these.

a: In the last class, Nov.11th, I studied TOEIC, listening and reading. First, I tried TOEIC No2 about 40 minutes. Second, I chose reading at level 2 I have never tried. At last I chose listening at level 2.

b: Netacademy is useful because I can know my English level. To see own percents of right answer teach my level. I think knowing and choosing match level for me is very important. Today, after  I talked with teacher about my English level I should study from now on, I found level 2 of reading and listening are fit me. But I want to level up English skill.

c: Today I didn't use dojo, so I couldn't get many vocabularies than using dojo. But listening and reading texts was able to give me vocabularies and idioms.

d: My listening skill is vary poor. The reason is I don't have any time except school to hear native English. I want to get nice score at TOEIC, but listening of TOEIC is fast for me. And words are difficult too. Please give me advice to educate listening skill in my life.

a: Last Friday, Oct.28th, I use Netacademy to study English. Beginning I chose level 3 of Listening. It was about 25 minutes.After I finished unit 9,12, I try to advance mode. It is very difficult, so I don't get many points. Next, I chose level 1 of Reading. It was about 25 minutes. Level 1 is easy, if to understanding only. I finished unit 2,6,12 and 18. And I try to "writing mode" too. Reading was better than listening, but I think it was level 1. Finally, I learned words at dojo until class finished. Dojo every time give me new vocabulary.

b: I found Netacademy can polish writing skill. The reason is if I was able to understand and finish the text, Not all I was able to write all of sentence. I surely mistake many words spelling. Advance mode of Listening and Reading can practice and confirm spelling. Therefore the site educate writing too!!

c: This week, I get a lot of vocabularies and idioms.New words were discovered all course and dojo. I think vocabulary continue increasing, but it is important to make my vocabulary.

d: I don't like study reading because there are many words I don't know. But words is important for all of English, listening, reading and writing. So I decide to study more words. I want to level up English skill than now.

a: I used NetAcademy 2 to study TOEIC, reading and vocabulary. TOEIC is about 30 minutes. Reading is about 20 minutes, and I chose level 1. I chose vocabulary at level 2. First, I tried TOEIC test. It's very very difficult for me!!! My score was poor, and reading is particularly terrible. I am going to study more reading next week. Next, I learned two texts of reading. To understand story was easy, but to writing that is high level I thought.

b: I think TOEIC system in NetAcademy 2 is nice site!! It is able to take an exam like real test. And the site was told me how many score I can take. This system make me more study English.

c: This week, I learn new vocabulary at "dojo" too. In instance, instead, plenty, hook and so on. And recently I bought a vocabulary book, so I want to study hard to use it for TOEIC.

d: I feel vocabulary I have is increasing. The reason is I always study unit one at least everyday. I have to continue this for raising my English skill.

a: Today, I used ALC NetAcademy and study listening, reading and vocabulary. First, I study listening at level 3. Beginning, I couldn't listen fluently, but the end I can listen and understand sentence. Second, I chose reading at level 1. My reading skill is very slowly, so first WPM was only 60. After step 5, the WPM of sentence very very increasing !!!! It's 225 !!! I was surprise and I believe this sites is good to study English. Finally, I learn vocabulary at level 2. It's only level 2, however, it's difficult for me.

b: The websites is very very good. The reason is it's useful !! I want to learn all of English and I think it is interesting. But knowledge I have about English is little, so I should study many things of it. Knowledge I need is in the websites.

c: I learn new vocabulary of course at vocabulary lists, but listening and reading too. For example, horoscope, hostility and gain. I should review until I am able to understand the vocabulary without dictionary.

d: I feel I must study hard than now especially vocabulary and idioms. I think I had better increase times for English. And it's necessary to know English level of myself, so I try TOEIC next month.

1.  I want to be fright attendant when I was child, so I want to be able to speak English well too. These are my language aim. But I think there is no goal to study English.

2. Skills: As for my reading and writing skill, I have learned in high school. However, I can't read and write it no more and I' m not proud of my reading and writing. Also as for speaking and listening skill is poor because I usual have little chance to speak and listening English.
 
   Language: As for my pronunciation, I can't good at pronounce, but i think I' m able to speak more clearly. For example, I know the difference of 「R」 and 「L」. Vocabulary and idioms is poor. The reason is I don't like learn them. Grammar is the best genre. I' m interested and love all of grammar, so it is better than others.

   Fluency: I can't speak and understanding spoken English very well. I have never try to speak and listen English usual without English class.

3. I should have more chance to use and study hard English than now. If it is I don't like, for example vocabulary and listening is so.

4. I will study English everyday. I think ALC is nice "book" to help and learn English. To read books and newspaper written English is nice way too.
