５，６，７月とエスタミネーでTOEICを受講したMegumiさん。大学３年生で就職活動に生かしたいと受講。当初は６００点を目指していました。大学では英語と全く関係のない学部で、最初はシャドウイングも大変で、文法も単語も、やらなければならないことが多すぎて圧倒されていましたが、来るたびに大学の講義よりおもしろい！と言ってくれ、毎回真剣に取り組んでくれました。本当に教師冥利に尽きるという感じです。彼女のパワーと努力のかいあって、７月末の受験でついに目標の最低限のコミュニケーションができるという６００点を１００点も上回る海外赴任社員適用以上のビジネスレベルと言われる７００点という好成績を得ることができました。
合格お祝いのケーキはMegumiさんのお母様が用意してくれたもの。いつも陰で彼女を支えてくれている親の愛情もすばらしいですね。
８月には１ヶ月カナダのトロントに行って、現地の学校でさらに英語に磨きをかけ、世界中の友人を増やし見聞を広めて来ました。来週からは教生のトレーニングが１ヶ月あるということで、また緊張の日々が続くそうですが、Megumiさん、あなたならなんでも全力で乗り切ることでしょう。エスタミネーみんなで応援していますね♥
Megumi has just returned from Canada and stopped by at our school. She had taken our TOEIC course for three months in May, June, and July. Her major field at the university is music and she has not had English classes for a long time. However, she wanted to get a TOEIC score of 600 for the job hunt and signed up for the class. At the beginning, she really struggled to do shadowing exercises, and learn lots of vocabulary and grammar items. Every time she came to the lesson, she made sure to do all her homework. She kept saying that my class was much more fun than her university classes (!). Her goal was to get 600 points (Basic Communication Level), but she got 700 points (Business Level) in the last exam she took in the end of July. I really admire her efforts!
She left for Toronto, Canada, in August for a month and just came back to Nagasaki. She told me that she made many friends from all over the world, visited Niagara Falls and New York, and did a 15-minute English presentation at the school she attended. She was confident and was very willing to talk in English. I was very excited to talk with her.
Megumi is starting to practice teaching at a junior high school from next week for a month. After that, she is coming back for the Business English Course to brush up her English even more.
