本冊子は、英語の構造を掴むための英文集とその解説動画へのQRコードが付いた自習用です。
一文をしっかり読み解く精読の技術獲得やトレーニングは学習の基本です。これを怠ると、せっかく覚えた単語も使いこなせず、知らない単語の処理も感覚的になり、長文読解の際に情報の取捨選択が複雑になり、問題を解く余裕もなくなってしまいます。
ここでの解説で精読技術の基礎をある程度ゲットできます。一通り解説を聞いた後は、和訳での復習や英作文のトレーニングもある程度できるように工夫しました。まず和訳をしっかりしたい場合は模範訳がすぐには見えない「和訳での復習」から取り組むのも良いです。
ただ、数はあるものの、やはりトレーニング的にはまだまだ不足してます。この解説を聴いて、これまで自分が選んできた学習法(参考書のみ、対面授業、動画授業、個別指導など)では成長が遅く、間に合わないと感じた場合はぜひR塾の講座をご検討ください。英語は私の講座のみで、それぞれの実力に合った「授業3.0」形式です。ご安心ください。
また、塾生にとってこの冊子は完全におまけです。普段の学習だけで問題ありませんが、せっかく作ったのでシェアします。質問・確認・添削があればガンガン送ってください。
動画には私の雑感も入っていますが(ものによっては半分ほど)、興味がなければ最後まで観る必要はありません。それでも、最も伝えたいことを入れたかったので、聴いてくれると嬉しいです。
掲載した45の英文解説を通して、精読をパワーアップさせてください。そして、先人たちの名言から、生きるヒントを得て、力強く次へ進んで下さい。
皆さんの志望校合格と、その先に期待しています。
