▮ Level : CEFR A2～B2 TOEIC 400～800, EIKEN Grade Pre2～Pre1
▮ Number of Lessons: 50 lessons (Please take only the necessary ones)
▮ Flow of the Lesson
- Student should describe the picture, not only with short sentences but also by constructing complex sentences.
- The instructor will listen to the students’ descriptions and provide advice on corrections, paraphrasing, and other aspects.
- Once the student have finished their descriptions of the picture, the instructor will ask questions about it, which the student should answer.
Two pictures will be used in the lesson. As it is a 25-minute lesson, progressing at 12 minutes per pictures will allow for the completion of the text in one session.
※ Memo
12 minutes per picture is a rough guideline. Spending more time on a single photo is fine, as is moving through them more quickly.
