Erisa, a member of the English club, passed Eiken Grade 1 this summer. Here is her comment.

   When I first began studying for Eiken Grade 1, I was hopeless because there were much more difficult terms compared to Grade Pre-1. However, I made sure to study some new words every day, even if it was just for a couple of minutes, so that it would become a habit. I also solved multiple past exam questions and whenever I came across a word I wasn’t familiar with, I always looked it up. It motivated me to study even harder when I saw that my scores on past exams were improving. In addition, because I found the speaking exam harder than the first exam, I read global news articles daily to be more aware of social issues and avoid getting stuck for words during the actual test.

   When I finally saw my exam results, I learned that consistent efforts truly pays off, and it gave me confidence to overcome challenges that are yet to come. I am especially grateful to the teachers at Ashikaga High School who helped me prepare for the speaking exam.
