How I study English

I like English. English is necessary to learn words, listening, speaking, writing, reading, grammar and so on. Especially, I think that to learn a lot of English words is the most important thing. When I try to study English, I study words as a first step. Next, I study about English grammar. If I understand these two things, I can read English sentences. However, this is not enough to learn about English. Of course, English is a language, we need to contact other people. So we must communicate many English people adn our English skills increase.

My Hometown

I was born in Kumamoto in Kumamoto city. I will have been living in Kumamoto twenty years next years. Do you know Kusunoki? I live in there. No all the people know about Kusunoki. I will introduce about Kusunoki.
It is placed between Musashigaoka and Shimizu. In detail, it is 2km from Hikarinomori. Kusunoki is so countryside that there are not big shopping mall and some amusement places.
From my house to Kumamoto Gakuen University is about 6km.I usually go to Kumamoto Gakuen University by bicycle. It took about thirty minutes. If we have heavy rain, I go to school by car. All the classes that I take now begin first period. So if I go to school by car, I am caught in a traffic jam in North bypass. It often takes fifty minutes.
By the way, I live in housing development with my family. It is to be rebuilt by next year. The briefing session about that will be held this summer. So I and my family are going to move to Nagamine. It is near the red cross hospital. There is my grandparent’s house in Nagamine. If my family moves to Nagamine we and my grandparents live together. It is happy for me because I can meet my grandparents everyday and care for them. I like Nagamine better than Kusunoki. There is a road named Kokutaidouro near the Nagamine. There are so many shops that I like very much. For instance, There are joyful, mister Dornut, sushi shop and son on. As I often go to these shops, I think Nagamine is a very good place for me.
