5. I got many “A” grades!!
6. How could that happen?
7. What I did to get high evaluation • Found the best theme that I could handle well and that was meaningful for me. • Studied it hard in English and also in Japanese to research it wider and deeper. • Got many feedbacks before submitting a paper or making a presentation to check and correct my English.
8. Finally, professors and classmates considered me contributing the class well!
9. What I learned from the experience is …
10. CONTENTS are much more important than using English correctly or fluently!
11. For engineers…
12. Messages from me • Don’t too much focus on “perfect" English. • CONTENTS are more important than fluency. • You already have something worth telling! • First, focus on brushing up your own CONTENTS and then tell it using English.
13. CONTENTS, in other words, What you say, what you do is much more important than English. English is just a tool
14. Thank you for listening!
