Painless Strategies for Improving English Skills
LOC/ENG 8 • (Thursdays 19:00-21:00)

English Level: Intermediate to Advanced.

In this course, students will learn how to use clues to guess meanings of words and expressions. Checking every word in a bilingual dictionary is time consuming and boring. It is better to use the same strategies as native speakers in guessing the meaning of new words, phrasal verbs and idioms. The course will help you understand words in context, phrasal verbs, idioms, buzz words, signal words, jargon and much more. This may be the course that will give you a new, more dynamic approach to understanding English.

Instructor: Frances Fister-Stoga is a linguist who speaks more than five languages and has taught in the U.S., Canada, Europe and Japan. She has been a lecturer at the University of Tokyo since 1992.
