英語教育講義（２）

 In second semester, we learned motivation. While I took this lecture, I started thinking about motivation. Now, I work at two places, WEST and cram school. I have two motivations to work. Why I work at two places is to earn a lot of money and study how to teach students English. This two reasons are my motivations. Motivating don't happen unless an incident happens. I think that the motivation of studying a subject means that learner feels attractive to it.

 To keep motivations of studying, we should set a goal. For example, to go on university, we learn how to solve problems of subjects to pass entrance exam. If we don't set it, we may not do something to go on.

    As a goal setting, I suggest that remembering the reason why you decided to learn English in this university and how much effort you put it would naturally bring you some kinds of motivation. As well as looking for some reasons, looking back on your past may provide you with some energy. (Koyo Ogawa)

 In today's group, we talked about second language. There are some people which majors in Germany or French in my group. The trouble is that it's hard to memorize words because masculine noun and female noun are distinguished. the man that majors in Chinese told us that it was hard to pronounce it despite the fact that Japanese was similar to it in terms of using Kanji. German is also similar to English. For example, In English, "Name" is pronounced ”ネーム”, but in German, it is pronounced "ナーメ”.  Thus similarity and difference are shown those languages. I was able to understand the anguish of learning languages.

In today's class, I learned various things. Especially what I was impressed with is Mr. Kouyo Ogawa's presentation. I could know that Japanese are passive to the class, but America and United kingdom are less passive than Japan. Certainly, when I was a high school,  most of students are passive attitude, for example, when teacher said to students, "Can you understand?" they kept silent. Maybe, America and United Kingdom's student are active attitude toward to classes. I was glad to hear the difference between Japan and America, United Kingdom.
