English Environment

In order to improve English, I think it's effective to build an environment that you have to use English.

So today, I switched language settings of my smartphone and PCs to English.

For a while, I may be bewildered by the operation, but I think I will get used to them soon.

Also, I will watch American dramas in Netflix with English subtitles.

Anyway, I really want to improve my English, to write my doctoral thesis in English.

英語の環境

英語の上達のためには、英語を使わなければいけない環境を構築することが効果的だと思います。

今日は、スマートフォンとパソコンの言語設定を英語にしました。

暫くは操作に戸惑いそうですが、きっと近いうちに慣れるはずです。

Netflix で見るドラマも、英語字幕で見るようにします。

博士論文を英語で書くために、なんとしても上達したいです。

This is totally true, and it's very clever of you to realize it. By creating a need for using the language we are studying, we have many more opportunities to encounter new words and experience the language without barriers.

Finding movies and dramas on Netflix is also very good. I did the same for Japanese but with Hulu Japan. I found some movies and TV shows on there that I really loved. So I watched them in Japanese. My enjoyment increased my motivation every time :)

私はコンピュータの言語設定は日本語です。Eメールもそうです。この間は韓国語にしましたが、やっぱり韓国語の実力はまだまだなので操作に困りました！

他の役に立つ方法はすで読んだ本を英語で読むことです。六年前からずっと、私は聖書を日本語で読んできています。
