ご挨拶
Nancy’s Language Fun Club にようこそ！
Nancy Liu と申します。来日25年。以来、有名語学学校、
Welcome to Nancy’s Language Fun Club. Since you are looking at this page, I assume that you might be interested in foreign
languages and are probably thinking of taking up English or Chinese, or both.
Why would you like to learn a foreign language? Your answer to this question makes a huge difference in whether or not you will enjoy the learning
and how at ease you will become with a foreign language.
The answer I expect is communication, not others.
Any language is born and for communication. In other words, language enables us to communicate: to express ourselves
and to understand others. Learning a foreign language should NOT just serve the purpose of passing examinations or getting promoted at work, but to open mind and reach out to foreign people and
the culture they live in.
Most of you spent years at school studying English. Did you study to communicate? Did your teachers teach to communicate? What have you harvested
from years of struggling with English?
You might have been able to pass all the examinations, but can you use English? If you cannot use it to communicate with English
speakers, what’s the point of having studied it for so many years. What a waste of time and money and energy!!
It’s not only fun to speak a foreign language, but enlightening to be in touch with a culture different from your own. It’s like opening another
window in your brain.
And you know what, it’s a small world anyway.
