We can study English in Japan but it is as a subject not as a language. I think I can learn English when I have daily life in English surrounded by foreign people in a foreign country. I do not have confidence to speak English and think I speak poor English. I'm embarrased because I studied only reading and writing of English. However I have no resistance speaking English naturally and I come to be able to speak it positively because there is a man-to-man class by this studying abroad. Furthermore, I can touch it to be able to practice what I learned immediately due to having an internship. I keep this opportunity when I can have a valuable experience that I can participate in internship in a second grade abroad and not only I study English hard, but also I want to grow up to the person who is rich in aggressiveness. In addition, I want to participate in overseas volunteer activity triggered by this studying abroad.

We experienced three classes in this study abroad. First is social club. I tried to improve my English skill by I describing my opinion for one topic in this class. Second is internship preparation. I learned important things to work such as how to write a resume , how to interview and how to give a presentation. I never have experienced presentation , so I could learn many things. Finally, chatterbox is the most impressive class for me. This class is man-to-man. I listened and spoke English for two hours everyday. I could not listen to what to say in my first day, but I could gradually understand. I could enjoy studying English because I could feel my growth. In my opinion, I thought I had a little time to answer some questions, so I did not afford to be embarrass. However, it led to speak without afraid of mistake. “Don’t be shy.” We were said this word at the first time. I’m glad to be able to do this naturally.

I changed two points by studying abroad for one month . Firstly , it is my English skill. My English skills , listening and speaking , improved because I involved in English everyday and had a daily life conversation. It is difficult for me to improve these two skills ,so I'm glad to had a the chance to do. Secondly, I could come to insist my opinion . I'm friendly ,but I was not good at presenting my opinion in public because I thought it was embarrassing if i fail . In the first days of this studying abroad , I couldn't say my opinion ,and my teachers often said me " Did you have your opinion ?" . However , I managed to insist my opinion gradually .I noticed no one laughs at me even if I make mistakes , I don't have to be afraid of anything ,and I learn something from my failure . The envirenment took away the feeling of being embarrassed . These my changes will make my life more challenging from now on .
