第1回

字幕なしで聞く

字幕なしで大意、テーマ、主要な情報をつかみます。

第2回

英語字幕を見る

知らない語や難しい文を確認します。必要なら辞書や短いメモを使います。

第3回

シャドーイング

1文ずつ繰り返し、発音、リズム、強勢、イントネーションをまねします。

第4回

ディクテーション

聞こえた内容から重要な文をいくつか書き取り、形と構造を鍛えます。

第5回

字幕なしで再聴

文字の助けなしで再度聞き、以前より分かる部分が増えたことを確認します。

トレーニング後

共有して言い換える

メモ、新出語、役立つ概念を共有し、その後で自分の言葉でエピソードを言い換えましょう。

次のステップ

精聴から多聴へ

集中的に学習したエピソードを後で流し聞きに回し、慣れた素材で聞く量を増やしましょう。

📝 IELTSスピーキングダイアログトランスクリプト

Interviewer: Good morning. Thanks for coming in today. How are you feeling? Candidate: Morning. A bit nervous, but ready. I was glad to get out of weeks of remote acedia. Interviewer: Remote acedia can be tough. We have a lot to cover. First, could you explicate the project you mentioned on your CV? Candidate: Sure. I led a cost-reduction project at GreenTech. We winnowed non-essential expenses and improved procurement. Interviewer: How much did you reduce costs by? Candidate: About 20 percent in the first year. It felt almost like a stroke of genius to find several small savings that added up. Interviewer: That sounds impressive. Don't call yourself a genius too soon, though. Candidate: I wouldn't. I actually had to explicate each change to skeptical managers. Interviewer: You said you managed a team. How many people did you oversee? Candidate: I managed a team of eight across procurement and analytics, and at times I supervised six junior researchers directly. Interviewer: Okay. We will have several interviews and then winnow candidates to three for the final stage. Candidate: That makes sense. During the panel interview last year I felt a crossfire of questions, which was intimidating. Interviewer: We try not to subject people to that crossfire here, but panels can be sharp. How did you cope with the stress and occasional acedia during long projects? Candidate: I took short breaks, reorganized priorities, and literally winnowed tasks to the essentials. It helped pull me out of acedia. Interviewer: Finally, can you explicate how you chose which costs to cut? Be specific. Candidate: We analysed usage data, ranked suppliers, and winnowed variables that showed low impact. I then explained results to stakeholders so they trusted the change. Interviewer: Great. One last thing: how did you handle the rapid questioning during that crossfire you mentioned? Candidate: I stayed calm, answered clearly, and admitted when I didn't know. It stopped feeling like a crossfire of doubts and more like a discussion.
