Currently, the main focus of my English practice is to get my ears used to quickly spoken casual English conversations. And the link below is an example of learning materials I'm using for listening comprehension practice.
As long as you live in Japan, the amount of English you are exposed to is limited, but I would like to improve my English language skills as much as possible.

Currently, what I am looking foward to is a pro-wrestling match between AEW women's champion Mariah May and challenger Mina Shirakawa. The both ladies are beautiful, sexy, and very talented entertainers. Mina's passion and pro-wrestling sense are great, Mariah is extremely beautiful like a Barbie doll. Originally, these two ladies were tag team partners when Mariah was in Stardom Wrestling Promotion in Japan. I can't wait to see the storyline of the bout of friendship and good rivalry.

今現在、楽しみにしているのが米国のプロレス団体 AEW の女子プロレスの試合。キレイでセクシーでキャラクターも面白い選手が沢山います。2024年の12月中旬に行われるマライア・メイ vs 白川未奈の試合が特に楽しみ。
白川未奈さんは青山学院大・英文科卒の女子プロレスラーで得意の英語を活かして、今はアメリカのリングでも活躍しています。マライア・メイさんは、バービー人形かと思うほどの美人で、以前は日本の女子プロレス団体 スターダムに在籍していました。未奈さんとマライアさんはスターダム時代はタッグパートナーだったのですが、AEWのリングでは上記のビデオにある通り、仲間割れをして、お互い闘うことになった、という筋書きです。
今後のストーリーがどう展開していくのか？楽しみです。
志田 光選手にも期待しています。
As long as you live and work in Japan, the amount of English you are exposed to is limited. Therefore, one of important keys for improving your English is how well you increase opportunities to use English in your every day life.
In this contect, the word " use " does not necesarily mean speaking. Writing, listening, and reading are also included in this expresseion " use ". The point is to increase amount of English you are immersed.
Currently, one of my priorities in English practice is to get used to quickly spoken casual conversation.
The video below is one of learning materials I'm listening to, which is an interview video of a female pro-wrestler.
Because she speaks English quickly, also has southern accent.
Although total amount of time I immersed in English still lacks, I'd like to get my ears familiarize with that kind of conversations.
Today, I did two continuing education classes of Wellcoaches, which are necessary for recertifying one's credential in every three years. Also, watching and listening to those continuing education classes can be a good practice for my English listening comprehension. As I wrote previously, in order to further improve my English speaking & writing skills, brushing up my listening skill is essentially important. Although I live in Japan, I need to immerse myself in English spoken environment as much as possible.
