Which is the best way for Japanese people to study English? Studying full-time in an English-speaking country for as long as possible! Realistically, this isn’t for everyone; people have lives to live in Japan and learning English is for passing exams, fun, brain exercise, practising what they have already learnt, or for work.
Throughout this month, I have written about the advantages and disadvantages of self-study, One-to-One, AND Group lessons. So, living in Japan, what is the best way to study English? I would recommend all three ways for the following reasons:
Self-studying benefits
- Self-studying is good to review what you have just learnt or what you are about to learn. You can never study too much. You can also prepare questions for a One-to-One or Group lesson.
One-to-One lesson benefits
- One-to-One lessons are great for learning specific English parts that suit you. The materials in these lessons should support your self-study and your questions answered in a way you can understand. Personalised guidance should be given including feedback on your successes and failures.
Group lesson benefits
- Group lessons are a good way to share the learning experience and use what you have learnt in One-to-One lessons or self-study. Speaking English with a variety of people in a class is great practice for when you will speak outside the class. It is a time to communicate your thoughts and ideas.
Start your journey
Other factors come into which way you should learn, however, why you are learning is the main thing. Other things to consider are; do you like the materials, do you like the method, are you progressing, are you finding it interesting, enjoyable, or helpful?
