スカイプまたはメッセンジャーで受講生対象に模擬面接をしていますが、このようなquestionsをして、英語力を測っています。

観点は
1)日本語で考えた文章を英訳したために不自然な表現になっていないか?
2)時制は正しいか?
3)質問された内容だけでなく+αの情報を加えて返答できているか?
4)話そうという気持ちが前に出すぎて、トピックから外れたことまで話していないか?
5)発音、言葉の使い方、なども同時にチェックしています。


会話テストや普段英会話の授業で気づくことですが1)と2)で問題点がある受講生が非常に多いです。1)は日本語に詳しいネイティブに習う、または英語が堪能な日本人に習うことによって解決できます。けれども、そういう出会いも難しい・・・のが大半かと思います。そんなときは、language exchangeを上手に活用して、ネイティブに「変な表現だったら指摘して!」とあらかじめお願いしておく。そうすれば、学びの多いlanguage exchangeになるはずです。

コメント(1)

ちょっとドキドキしながら読んでいました。その場に今、いるかのように創造しながら・・・。受けたことの無いテストって受ける前から緊張します。3年後の留学を目指していますがそのためにも今のうちからがんばらないと、と思いました。。。!町や国に関する質問が多いのも納得です。留学生・永住者、外国にいる以上は日本人は自分の国のことを語れないといけないですよね。
