    🍎 Children and Adults ! How to Improve English Pronunciation Dramatically ? Vol. 329

    English pronunciation is difficult for Japanese people. They study English hard in middle school, high school, and university, but when it comes time to speak with foreigners, they cannot communicate at all.
    It is said that there are 1.35 to 1.5 billion English speakers in the world, of which only about 400 million are native speakers.
    In other words, most English speakers are "second language learners of English. Some people say that since non-native speakers talk to each other, it is OK to pronounce English in their own way ! but what do you think?
    As with any language, learning the "standard pronunciation" of the language is a fundamental part of language learning.
    English has 5 vowels and 21 consonants. The first step is to learn the correct pronunciation of these 26 letters. This is where you must start.
    Learning the rules of pronunciation is phonics.
    If you want your child to learn "understandable English", it is important to teach the correct pronunciation rules through "phonics".
    Phonics can dramatically improve the pronunciation of both children and adults.

    🍎 Bilingual Education from Elementary School Why English Conversation Does Not Lead to English Acquisition Vol.328

    The younger the age of children, the more quickly they can learn English conversation.
    If English conversation is learned during childhood, when language absorption is high, English can be learned efficiently ! You think so, don't you?
    It is true that certain results can be seen by attending English conversation classes.
    However, when they reach the age of going up to elementary school, their minds change to the point where they cannot absorb English just by listening to it.
    It would be easy if you could build up your academic ability just by listening to lessons, but that is not the case.
    At home, students build up their understanding and knowledge by reading textbooks, books and reference books, and thinking about what they read.
    In elementary school, students must change their learning method from English conversation to "reading".
    Whether it is Japanese or English, "reading" work is essential from elementary school.

    🍎 Bilingual Education from Age 3: Children Learn English by Pattern Vol.327

    Children love to find "patterns" in the world around them. Patterns can be shapes, colors, sounds, letters, etc.
    One method of learning English that uses pattern recognition is Word Families. Children can memorize a lot of information effortlessly.
    Word families are a method of instruction in which "words ending in the same spelling and the same sound" are taught in groups.
    For example, words ending in "AN / An" include: ban, can, Dan, fan, man, pan, ran, tan, van.
    When word families are incorporated into English language learning, children discover "sound and spelling patterns".
    This discovery stimulates the child's curiosity. Using their imagination, they learn to read even unfamiliar words.
    TLC for Kids teaches word families through songs. As the child sings the song, he or she discovers patterns in the lyrics.
    Then they can learn new words in the form of potatoes.

    🍎 Bilingual Education from Age 3: The Sequence of Successful English Learning Vol.326

    The goal of English education for children is to develop reading skills.
    If children can read English books ( for native English speakers ), they will acquire English skills on their own through reading.
    Furthermore, through reading in English, they can be exposed to values from around the world and experience diverse cultures from around the world. They can acquire a global standard of culture.
    To learn reading successfully, it is important to learn in the "right order". That order is [Phonics → Sight Words → Multiple Reading].
    First, we teach the "sounds" of the alphabet through phonics. By teaching the correct pronunciation of the letters all the way through, students will be able to read English with native pronunciation.
    Next, Sight Words teaches the correct reading of frequently used words. Sight words are frequent words.
    After learning phonics and sight words, you will be able to read simple English sentences. From there, students will continue to develop "reading fluency" through multiple readings of very simple readers.
    If you are worried about teaching phonics by yourself or don't know how to teach sight words !, we recommend TLC for Kids !

    🍎 Bilingual Education from Age 0 Children acquire language through "rhythm" Vol.325

    All the world's languages have rhythm. English has a strong, crisp rhythm with great intonation ( and inflection ).
    Japanese is a monotonically rhythmic language with little intonation. Even a newborn baby can hear this difference in rhythm.
    If you want your child to become an "English lover," it is important to familiarize him or her with English rhythms.
    The teaching method that focuses on the rhythm of language is called phonemic awareness. This instruction fosters a "phonemic awareness" of English.
    By focusing on the rhythm and sounds of English, such as listening to the beginning sounds of words, listening to the end sounds of words, and connecting phonemes to form words, English learning can proceed smoothly.
    In American preschools and kinder, it is common to teach phonemic awareness through "songs". Through Mother Goose and hand play songs, they familiarize them with the sounds and rhythms of English.
    Then when the child begins to learn letters through phonics, he or she can enter the "sound-to-letter world" without resistance.
    The reason TLC for Kids teaches with "songs" is to develop phonemic awareness. They can memorize English rhythm, pronunciation, and phonics while having fun.

    🍎 Vocabulary you need to learn to master English and tips on the order in which you learn it Vol.323

    An essential element in learning English is vocabulary. It is important to learn the words in the order in which they are needed.
    The first two words to be taught to children are
    1 ) Everyday Words ( Familiar words needed for daily conversation )
    2 ) Learning Words ( Words needed for reading )
    " ★ Living words are taught with illustrations ( pictures ) taught with
    body parts, family, clothes, food, furniture, dishes, stationery, vehicles, animals, basic verbs, etc. "
    Many of the living words should be taught by category. Also, since they are nouns, they can be taught with illustrations or pictures.
    " " ★ Learning words are words that you can read first rather than mean
    Learning words are words that are commonly used in the "written word" or words you see in English books.
    These are called "sight words" in English-speaking countries, and are the "most important words" that are always taught in primary education. "
    Many of the words studied cannot be represented by illustrations and are studied in the order in which they occur most frequently, regardless of their order according to grammatical rules, such as past tense or plural.
    When teaching sight words to children, emphasis should be placed on "being able to read" rather than on meaning.
    If a child asks, "What does this mean?" it is effective to have the child guess the meaning of the word by the phrase.

    🍎 For Those Raising Children Abroad: How to Help Your Child Adjust to the Local School Vol. 322

    In order for children to adjust to the local school, it is necessary for them to acquire a level of English at an early age that will enable them to keep up with the classes.
    There are two types of English: conversational English, which is necessary for everyday life, and learning English, which is required at school.
    Dr. Jim ・ Cummins of the University of Toronto has published research showing that it takes five to seven years for children who learn English as a second language to acquire learning English proficiency.
    If a child does not understand a lesson for five years, he or she will lose confidence that he or she is not a good learner.
    To acquire learning English skills early, reading education must be "systematic". Start with "phonics" first.
    Once students are able to read, "Sight Words" is taught. Once students learn phonics and sight words, they will be able to read simple books on their own. Beyond that, we will work on reading speed and reading comprehension.
    By giving the right instruction, in the right order, the child will gain confidence that he or she can speak English !.
    This confidence is essential for the child's adjustment to the local school !

    🍎 English Skills for Life While in Japan ! Vol.321

    When families relocate or expatriate abroad, the education of their children is a primary concern.
    With younger children, moving is relatively easy, but for upper elementary school age and above, examinations need to be taken into consideration.
    We recommend an overseas school experience for children of any age. This is because it will give them English skills that they can use for the rest of their lives.
    If you acquire "English skills that will last a lifetime", you will always score high on English exams.
    This English proficiency will also give you a big advantage in university entrance exams and employment exams.
    We have children from expatriate families attending our TLC, and they are improving their English skills with a goal in mind.
    In fact, children who have returned from expatriation have acquired English skills, gained multicultural understanding, and grown as human beings.
    The key to a great future for our children is to view the expatriation period as an opportunity to learn English and to actively expose them to the language and culture.

    🍎 Raising Children While in the U.S.! Raising Children to Develop Their Individuality Vol.320

    In American schools, students are expected to actively participate in class. For example, debates and class discussions are commonplace.
    In America's multicultural society, it is essential to express your thoughts clearly. This is important to avoid misunderstandings.
    Teachers actively ask students, "What is your opinion ??" and respect individual thinking.
    For example, by asking even young children "what do you think ?", the ability to express oneself with confidence is nurtured.
    Unlike in Japan, in the U.S., children are educated from an early age to value their own voice.
    As a parent, it is vital to respect the child's willingness to "do things on his/her own" and to allow trial and error.
    As children learn from their own experiences, they develop problem-solving skills as well as a sense of independence.
    Parents and children should use their time together to create an environment in which the child can freely express his or her individuality.

    🍎 Children's Acquisition of English ? Motivation or ? Environment Vol. 318

    Childhood is the optimal period for learning. Creating an English environment at home is the key to improving English proficiency.
    Children who grow up in Japan naturally acquire Japanese language skills. In the same way, a rich English environment is effective for English learning.
    During this period, children unconsciously absorb the language of their surroundings. It is an "easy period" for learning.
    However, things change when they become teenagers. From this point on, motivation dominates learning.
    In junior high school and above, any learning requires "the motivation of the student". An English environment alone is not enough.
    Even as an adult, you cannot learn English from the environment alone. On the contrary, if you have strong motivation, you can learn English.
    The focus is on "creating an environment" until elementary school age, and "creating motivation" from junior high school age.
    If parents and instructors understand this and provide appropriate support, the likelihood of success in their child's English education will increase.

    🍎 Learning from the Americans: Cultivating Children's Individuality & Cultivating a Challenging Spirit Vol.318

    In raising children in the U.S., a country of competition, it is necessary to look at "cultivating a competitive spirit.
    In the U.S., "competitive" is usually seen in a positive light, as someone who is willing to work hard to improve his or her abilities, someone who has strong will and determination,
    someone who hates to lose and is tenacious, etc.
    It is the American way to improve one's abilities through competition in both study and sports.
    Of course, competition produces a handful of winners and many losers. The probability of being a loser is much greater.
    The reason I put my child in competition is because it is essential training for my child to live in American society. Even in serious competition, there is a tolerance that everyone should enjoy the game, and that even if you lose, you can always win the next time, so everyone can easily participate in competition.
    The U.S. provides an environment that fosters a healthy competitive spirit. Please think of it as "training to be a part of society," and actively give your child the experience of competition.

    🍎 Bilingual Education for 0~3 years old The process of children acquiring English language skills ? Vol.317

    The process by which children acquire English is the same as in Japanese.
    Babies select and memorize information that is highly relevant to them from among the countless "sounds" that exist around them.
    In Japanese, "mama", "papa", "mamma", "nenne", etc. are the first sounds that babies learn.
    The same is true of English: the more relevant words ( and sounds ) to the child, the more likely they are to be retained in memory.
    The easiest way to make it stick is to sing it.
    Songs can be memorized by the brain without the child having to "try" to remember them.
    At TLC for Kids, we use songs as "triggers". A trigger is a "memory trigger".
    Sometimes hearing a "song" can trigger an old memory. To make English stick with your child, you can increase the number of triggers with songs.

    🍎 What is the Royal Road to English Language Learning for Children and Adults? Vol.315

    The development of English ( language ) skills is a top priority in American elementary education.
    English does not mean teaching "English conversation. We focus on teaching the ability to read books in English, or "reading skills".
    The ability to read books in English = is important because reading skills will determine future academic performance.
    In American schools, students are required to engage in 20-30 minutes of simple reading at home every day and to read one short book as homework.
    By giving students the experience of reading widely, they can remove their resistance to the printed word in English and develop the ability to read English fluently.
    Once students are able to read English books, they can improve their English skills on their own.
    In American schools, reading education is provided in a step-by-step, systematic manner through science-based instruction.
    It is more like learning arithmetic ( calculation ) than English. It may ring a bell when you think of it that way.

    🍎 Bilingual Education from Age 3: How Children are Taught English in the U.S. ? Vol.314

    A popular teaching method among American teachers is word families.
    A word family is a group ( of words ending in a sound ( spelling ) family ) also called rhyming.
    For example, word groups ending in "AT" include CAT, FAT, HAT, MAT, PAT, RAT, and SAT.
    In word-family instruction, the "AT" sound at the end of "FAT" is grouped together and taught as "at". This makes it easier for the child to recognize the meaning of the word since it can be read as "huat" all at once.
    The word family uses rhyming ( phonemes ) to teach word reading, making it rhythmic, easy to remember, and fun while developing reading skills.
    Mother Goose, a Western children's song, has many rhyming lyrics and is effective when taught in parallel with Word Families.
    Mother Goose is a straw song that has been sung from parent to child in English-speaking countries, but it is full of educational elements.
    TLC for Kids teaches all 37 word families through "songs". Children can learn to "read English" and "pronounce English correctly" by singing the songs.

    🍎 Bilingual Education from Age 3: Teaching English Effectively through Songs ! Vol.313

    In the United States, English reading ( phonics ) learning begins in Kindergarten the year a child turns 5 years old.
    Before Kindergarten, children are taught Phonemic Awareness as preparation for beginning phonics learning.
    Phonemic ・ Awareness means phonemic awareness, but in essence it is a way to focus on the "sounds" that make up words.
    Before teaching phonics ( letters ) it is considered necessary to train phonemic ・ awareness ( sounds ).
    But ! phonemic ・ awareness and phonics can be taught to children simultaneously !
    " that is "singing".
    Reading English is difficult for young children, but singing English songs is easy. "
    So by incorporating phonemic ・ awareness ( sound ) and phonics ( letter ) elements into the lyrics, we can teach young children reading.
    TLC for Kids uses original phonics songs to teach children. Even Japanese children can learn the correct "pronunciation" of English as well as the knowledge necessary to read English by simply singing the songs in a fun way.

    🍎 Reading is More Effective than Accumulative Learning in English ! Vol.312

    I know that reading is important, but I am sometimes asked ?
    if I have to memorize and build up English vocabulary to understand the meaning. However, reading allows you to acquire both vocabulary and grammar skills at the same time.
    The way to do this is simple: change the genre of the books you read and gradually increase the difficulty level.
    If you read books on natural science, you can learn the names of organisms and technical terms through reading. Reading books about Washington or Lincoln's autobiography will give you terms and knowledge about history and politics.
    Rather than memorizing the meanings of random words, memorizing them in a book is better retained in the memory because of the storyline.
    Through English reading training, students can acquire the ability to "think in English", which allows them to understand English as it is spoken.
    TLC for kids can acquire "the ability to read English books with correct pronunciation = reading and comprehension skills" through daily home study materials and weekly classes.
    Only TLC for Kids offers "professional instruction" with extensive experience and achievements in bilingual development.

    In TLC for Kids lessons, children can learn English/Japanese language skills through songs in a fun way 👧👦

    🍎 Bilingual Education from Age 3: The Difference between Children Who Grow in English and Those Who Don't ! Vol.311

    We are teaching English to children but they are not improving at all !
    This is due to "lack of practice in reading and writing".
    American children learn to read and write in Kindergarten from the age of 4 or 5, one year before entering elementary school.
    The goal is for children to be able to read simple books and write short sentences by the time they enter first grade.
    It is important to support reading education at home in order to consolidate children's reading and writing skills.
    Also, post "alphabet charts" and "sight words charts" in places where children can "see" them.
    Children "unconsciously repeat information" that they see. This is a great way to help children learn how to read and write.
    At TLC for kids, children can acquire "the ability to read English books with correct pronunciation = through daily home study materials and weekly classes.

    🍎 Teaching English in English, not translating it into Japanese, is effective ! Vol.310

    Q : How do you teach English words ? A : It is effective to teach by the direct method without translating into Japanese.
    The method of teaching by translating English into Japanese, such as "This is Apple, apple," is called the "translation reading method" or "indirect method.
    On the other hand, pointing to a picture or illustration of an apple and saying "apple" or "This is an apple" in English is called the "direct method".
    I believe that the "direct method" of teaching English as it is in English is much more effective than the "grammar translation method. In fact, in my school, even if a student does not speak English at all, "almost everyone" will be able to understand English as it is, even though it is taught in English-only by a native English-speaking teacher. ( * In some cases, students in high school and above have difficulty switching to English thinking )
    Teaching English to children should focus on "creating thinking to understand English as it is in English".
    Teach English in English Only ! By practicing this, students will acquire "English thinking" that allows them to understand English without translation.
    TLC for Kids lessons are "direct method" without any Japanese intervention. Key words are accompanied by visual cues such as illustrations and pictures, so students will be able to understand English as it is without translating it into Japanese.
    In addition, the curriculum is designed to expose students to "English-speaking children's culture" such as Mother Goose and other hand play songs, seasonal events, and Aesop, Grimm, and Andersen fairy tales. Bilingual education professionals teach "live English".

    🍎 Overseas Transfer ! How to Improve Children's English Vol.309

    Children who attend local schools abroad every day experience more mental depression than their parents can imagine.
    If the child does not acquire a level of English ( learning English ) as quickly as possible,
    "I can't study !" and the child will become demotivated.
    To support children's English language skills, it is important to focus on "learning English", i.e., mastering English reading skills.
    Don't worry about "conversational English" skills, as these will come naturally as the child gets used to school life, makes friends, and regains confidence.
    Reading support will be provided in the order of "Phonics" → "Sight Words".
    Sight Words are learned in school from about the first grade onward with spelling tests.
    You should get a list of test ranges in advance, so practice with them at home and prepare them so that they always get 100 points.
