The Problem
CLICK HERE TO CONTINUE! »
English is the International Language. It is important for business, for travel, and for getting along in today’s world. It is taught in almost every country, yet even after more than 10 years of hard study, STUDENTS IN JAPAN, CHINA, KOREA AND MANY OTHER COUNTRIES CAN NOT SPEAK OR UNDERSTAND SPOKEN ENGLISH, AND THEIR TEST SCORES ARE THE LOWEST IN THE WORLD! Why is this? What is wrong with English education in these countries? Why can’t students speak English after so much hard study? That was the problem the team of designers at English Friends Press wanted to understand. They studied and researched the problem for years, and they found out why. The problem is in the English education style that is still commonly in use in those countries. The problem is that the STUDENTS ARE ASKED TO READ ENGLISH, BUT NEVER TO PRACTICE REAL LISTENING, PRONUNCIATION, REPEATING OR USING THE LANGUAGE FOR COMMUNICATION! As a result, the students are able to read to some extent (though not well because just reading will not give a real understanding of any language), but when the time comes to listen and communicate orally, they are at a total loss. They just don’t have the mental skill to think originally in English, or the physical skill to produce sentences to communicate their ideas.

The Solution
CLICK HERE TO CONTINUE! »
The designers at English Friends Press realized that students, like small children, need to listen to native speakers and then practice speaking themselves. They realized that LANGUAGE IS PHYSICAL! Every language has its own sounds, which are unique and different from every other language. STUDENTS NEED TO PRACTICE MAKING THE SOUNDS OF THAT LANGUAGE! THEY NEED TO DO PHYSICAL LANGUAGE EXERCISE, NOT JUST READING! There are many textbooks that have listening exercises, but most of them are very short, one or two-sentence exercises. They do not give students enough chance to listen to English for a long period of time, or to practice speaking forlong periods. The designers at English Friends Press realized that in order to become familiar with both listening and speaking, STUDENTS NEED TO HEAR AND REPEAT LONGER EXERCISES, not just one or two sentences. THEY NEED INTENSIVE EAR EXERCISE, MOUTH EXERCISE AND BRAIN EXERCISE! They need to strengthen their ears in order to understand native speakers. They need to strengthen their mouths in order to make the sounds of English. Then they need to practice making original sentences and try to communicate with native speakers.

The purpose os this program is to help students especially with the first two parts of their English language training - listening and pronunciation practice. Language school is a great place to learn a language, and we recommend that all students enroll in a language school. That is the place to practice communication. But YOU CAN DO MUCHOF THE PREPARATION WORK AT HOME! YOU CAN PRACTICE LISTENING AND REPEATING AT HOME. YOU CAN STRENGTHEN YOUR EARS AND YOUR MOUTH, AND GET READY FOR THE NEXT STEP! It is a waste of your time to pay money to a school and then not be ready to communicate when your are there! Be ready! Be strong! BE FAMILIAR WITH THE SOUNDS, GRAMMAR AND PRONUNCIATION OF ENGLISH BEFORE YOU GO TO SCHOOL! USE YOUR TIME AND YOUR MONEY WELL! WE CAN HELP YOU GET READY TO COMMUNICATE! WE CAN HELP YOU DO THE PREPARATION YOU HAVE TO DO IN ORDER TO COMMUNICATE SMOOTHLY!

We cannot be in the home with students, but we can give them many examples and a chance to practice, practice, practice. Practice listening! Practice repeating what you hear! Exercise your mouth! English has its own sounds. Practice them! Practice words! Practice sentences! Listen! Repeat! Those are the first steps toward being a good English speaker, and YOU CAN DO THE BASIC WORK AT HOME! The first step towards making original communications and sentences is to make the ear sensitive to the sounds of English and make the mouth familiar with the sounds of English. LANGUAGE IS PHYSICAL! YOU MUST LISTEN TO NATIVE SPEAKERS’ PRONUNCIATION AND YOU MUST COPY IT TO IMPROVE YOUR OWN PRONUNCIATION AND ABILITY TO SPEAK SMOOTHLY!
