How do you expect to use English in the future

In Japan, learning English is as important as learning Japanese. Students in Japan usually start to study English when they enter a junior high school. Actually, the law concerning English teaching was revised several years ago. Today children who are the upper of elementary school have to study English. By the way, I still remember the day I first took my English class. Because I was unable to understand anything in the class. After that, I studied English seriously and I grew to like English. Now learning English has become a part of my life, so I want to get a job where I can use my English in the future. Therefore I will have to improve the ability to read, write and speak English to realize my dream.

First of all, I will need to enrich my vocabulary to acquire reading knowledge of English. When I read a text in English, I frequently come across words I do not understand. I usually look up the word in a dictionary so as to understand the content of the text. However, it is important for me to guess words I do not understand sometimes because dictionaries are not always useful. I will get an accurate understanding of a word after seeing it in a variety of contexts. If I have a large vocabulary of English words, I will be able to read Englirh books, English papers, or something written in English singly.

Knowing how to use a grounding in English grammar is an essential skill to write English sentences correctly. First, I will have to increase my vocabulary to write good English composition. A large vocabulary is useful not only to read a text in English but also to write English sentences. Second, to memorize a lot of English idioms is also important to learn a variety of expressions. Third, understanding of the rules of English grammar enables me to write an essay in English smoothly. Surely, it is difficult for me to acquire the ability to write English soon. However, these three things may play an important role to improve my writing skill.

If I want to speaking English fluently, I should take speaking and listening as a set. Because it is impossible to speak English fluently without learning correct pronunciation. Of course, the best way to learn correct pronunciation is talking to people who are good at speaking English, especially native speakers of English. Through conversation with he or she, I will be able to learn correct pronunciation and improve my speaking skill. I may also find differences between English and Japanese: how to express, unique phrases, etc. Thus conversation with people who speak English makes meaningful contributions to my speaking skill.

In conclusion, learning English enables me to communicate with people in a different country and to learn more about their culture. Therefore I hope to go abroad in the future in order to improve the ability to read, write and speak English.
