Before the fatal journey, Kiea's parents told how their daughter and her pals had held a party at their home before they went off to enjoy the major milestone.

TRAIZ 振り返り 150/107
トライズを始めて、73日目。
前回の振り返り記事から約１ヶ月半。
自身の英語力の変化はというと、
・リスニング力
100%理解ではないけど聞き取れる。※会話では
・Versant37
1点しか上がってないけど、テストを受験している時に
質問の意味がなんとなくわかる！という場面が多々あった。
もう少しリスニングの精度を上げたら、
１〜５問くらいは自信を持って正確に答えられそう。
・緊張しなくなった
もちろん全くしないというわけではない。授業が始まる前はドキドキするけど
始まってしまえば落ち着いて話せるようになった。
約3ヶ月間でこの微々たる変化なので、半年までにベラベラ喋れるようになるかといえばおそらく無理。ただ、自分の思っていることを詳細に話すことはできるようになると思う。ここまで持っていくことができたら、ペラペラレベルまでは回数こなすだけというか・・・あとは自分でネイティブキャンプなり使いながらレベルアップできると思う。
８月〜９月は休むつもりなので、その間にやること
・今までの授業を録画したテープを振り返って、教えてもらった単語など綺麗にまとめる。
・瞬間英作文Ankiの整理
・できるだけ毎日ネイティブキャンプで喋る
・先生に教えてもらったリスニングビデオを使って１日1~10単語覚える
