Introduction

This course was developed for the Asia North Area of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The aim of this eight-week course is to recruit more students from the high school student and young adult target age groups. Although this course, the Eiken Grade 3 Interview, was selected to specifically target junior high and high school students in Japan, the course is also available to other students as well. Eiken is an English proficiency test offered by the Eiken Foundation of Japan consisting of seven grades: The smaller the grade number, the higher the level of proficiency. The test consists of two parts. The first part covers listening, grammar and reading ability. The second part is done in an interview format to test speaking ability. This course focuses on the content and techniques needed to pass the second interview portion of the Eiken Grade 3 Test. In this course, your role as a missionary is to teach the techniques (pronunciation, expressions, etc.) needed for the students to be able to demonstrate English conversation skills, and to provide opportunities for the students to practice. You do not need a high level of English proficiency or any special certifications to be able to teach this course. The objective of the course is to help students feel comfortable speaking English. Your role is to encourage conversation and motivate the students with positive comments and a positive attitude recognizing their efforts and, more importantly, showing your genuine love and concern for them. Providing good classes is important, but remember that your mission is to bring souls unto Christ. This course is designed to invite more young people to come into contact with you. This course contains eight lessons. Become familiar with the contents and materials of each lesson. Each lesson is a one-hour group lesson. Although the course is structured as an eight-week course, students should be able to start the course at any time during the eight-week period. The lesson plans can be used flexibly which means that you do not have to cover everything. Please note that you are teaching beginning- to intermediate-level students and you may need to use some Japanese to help the students better understand what you are trying to teach them. Be sensitive to their needs and teach what you believe will help them the most. Everything you need to teach has been prepared for you. Enjoy learning with your students.

Lesson 1 | Introduction

If possible, before the lesson watch the tutorial on how to take the interview test found on the official Eiken webpage. This will give you a good idea of what you will be teaching. Grade 3 | http://www.eiken.or.jp/eiken/exam/grade_3/detail.html Objectives | In this lesson students will receive step-by-step instructions regarding the

interview test procedure. They will also learn a few useful sentences at each stage of the interview test.

Materials | Lesson 1 | Introduction Worksheet 1. Introduce yourself and have the students introduce themselves. Besides covering the

basics (name, hobbies, and of course your favorite ice cream flavor!), it is always fun to ask different questions such as “Where is your favorite place to go in your city/town?” or “Who is your favorite movie star?” Be creative and have fun.

2. Introduce the content of this lesson. In this class you will be guiding them through the

interview test process. You will also teach them a few useful sentences at each step. In this class, the students are not working on any specific questions; those will be covered in the following weeks. Ask if any of the students have taken the interview test before. If some of them have, ask them to briefly share their experiences.

3. Use the worksheet to teach. If possible show the tutorial on the official webpage. 4. After you go through the worksheet, have the students practice the sentences. Say the

sentences first and then have the students repeat. 5. Arrange two chairs facing each other to create an interview-like setting.

One missionary will play the interviewer, and each student will play the interviewee to practice the sentences. Depending on the time and the number of students, you may want to have two or more settings and/or you can decide if you want to go through the whole interview test or only cover certain parts.

6. Ask if anybody has any questions or comments. At the conclusion of the lesson, thank

each student for his or her participation and acknowledge their progress. Remind them that the next class will be about reading passages, and of course, to bring their friends!

Lesson 2 | Passage Reading Objectives | In this lesson you will teach some techniques about reading short passages

both silently and aloud. The students should have ample time to practice reading during the lesson.

Materials | Lesson 2 | Passage Reading Worksheet 1. Greet the students, and ask them about what they did since the last lesson. Welcome

any new students and let them to get to know the other students. 2. At the start of the lesson, briefly tell the students what they will be learning. Read one of

the passages on the worksheet and explain that in this lesson you will be teaching some techniques about reading passages like this both silently and aloud.

3. Teach the techniques listed on the worksheet. Give examples and demonstrate the

techniques. 4. Now, it is time to practice. The practice session consists of four stages. First, have the

students read the passage in silence for 20 seconds. It may be useful to bring a timer. The second stage is to have the students read the passage together aloud. While listening to them you may identify some words or phrases that the students are struggling with. The third stage is for you to help them with those difficult words and phrases. The last stage is to have the students read the passage together aloud once more. Do this with as many passages as you decide to use.

5. After practicing as a group, have each student come up to the front of the class and read

one passage. This is to help them overcome any anxiety they may have over speaking English in a nerve-wracking situation. Encourage them to try their best and provide positive feedback with some constructive advice for improvement.

6. Ask if anybody has any questions or comments. At the conclusion of the lesson, thank

each student for their participation and acknowledge their progress. Remind them that the next lesson will be about reading passages and answering questions.

Lesson 2 | Passage Reading Worksheet Reading techniques. When reading the passage:

Don't forget to read the title.

Emphasize the keywords.

Pause at each comma and period.

Try your best with pronunciation.

Don’t read too fast or too slow.

When you see a word you don’t know, do not skip or stop. Instead, try to guess the sound from its spelling and pretend you know the word.

Read it with confidence. The interviewer is looking at your willingness to communicate more than the accuracy of your reading.

Lesson 4 | Picture Questions

Objectives | In this lesson the students will learn some techniques for answering questions based on pictures that they are shown.

Materials | Lesson 4 | Picture Questions Worksheet

1. Now you should be familiar with the routines at the beginning of each lesson. Spend some time welcoming the students and ask them how they have been since the last lesson. Welcome any new students and let them have a chance to get to know the other students.

2. Explain to the students that in this lesson they will be working on questions #2 and #3 of the interview test. In these questions the interviewer asks two questions based on a picture that they show to you.

3. Teach the techniques listed on the worksheet. The questions in this task are mostly open-ended questions (meaning you cannot answer with Yes/No). Help the students learn different ways to answer the questions.

4. Now, it is time to practice. Six pictures with two questions for each picture are on the worksheet. To get started, you can answer one or two questions together with the students. When you feel that the students are ready, make pairs and assign one to be the interviewer and the other to be the interviewee. Have the interviewer ask the question to the interviewee. Switch the roles and repeat the same question. You may think that this is very redundant and that the second person to be the interviewee might not learn much. Remember that this course is to help them speak. Repeating what the first interviewee said allows everyone to practice speaking. You should make sure everyone has an equal chance to be both the interviewer and interviewee.

5. After practicing in pairs, you can have the students in their working pairs come up to the front and demonstrate. You should have two questions for each pair. When doing this, you do not have to do the same question twice; instead, switch the roles after the first question (or you can do it the same way that they practiced!). Encourage them to try their best and when they finish, provide positive feedback with some constructive advice for improvement.

6. Ask if anybody has any questions or comments. At the conclusion of the lesson, thank the students for their participation and acknowledge their progress. Remind them that in the next lesson they will be practicing how to answer questions about themselves.

12

Lesson 4 | Picture Questions Worksheet Some useful techniques:

Focus on who or what is the subject of the question. This will help you to identify the object and then answer the question.

These questions are open-ended questions, which means you cannot answer the questions with Yes/No.

These questions usually start with a question word (what, where, how many, etc.), so listen to which question word is used in the question.

Replace the subject of the question with its appropriate pronoun (he, she, they, it, etc.).

Practice 1

Practice 2

Lesson 5 | Questions about Yourself Part 1

Objectives | In this lesson the students will learn how to answer question #4 of the interview. They will first prepare their answers in writing and then practice answering them with a partner.

Materials | Lesson 5 | Questions about Yourself Part 1 Worksheet

1. Welcome the students. Ask the students how they have been since the last lesson. Building good relationships with them is not only good for learning for Eiken but also for inviting them to learn about the gospel.

2. Explain to the students that they are going to work on question #4 of the interview test. In this part the interviewer will ask them to answer a question about themselves. Several questions are possible for this part. In this lesson they will first, write the answers. When they finish writing their answers, have them share their answers with the other students. Show the students that different answers exist for the same question. If you can think of another way to answer the question that is simple and easy, teach it to them.

3. Explain that in the actual test, the interviewer will ask them to turn the card over before moving on to this question. It may be helpful to go over this a few times.

Interviewer | Now, Ms. Tanaka, please turn the card over. (Question #4) This can be found on the Lesson 1 Worksheet.

4. Make pairs for the students to practice together. The students can ask each other the questions. You can walk around the room and observe how they are doing. When you think they need some help, go and help them. You can also remind the students that you will be available for help at any time during the practice.

5. Take some time to invite each pair to come to the front and demonstrate. Ask the students for good feedback/comments and for some helpful suggestions for improvement. You should always make the last comment and make it really positive!

6. Ask if anybody has any questions or comments. Thank the students for their

participation. Encourage them to practice what they learned at home. Remind them that the next lesson will cover the last question of the interview test.

16

Lesson 5 | Questions about Yourself Part 1 Worksheet Write your own answers down first. Then practice them with your partner. When answering, do not forget to say the subject and make a full sentence. e.g. What do you like to eat? (Good) I like to eat pizza. (Not good) Pizza. 1. What country would you like to visit in the future?

2. What time did you go to bed last night?

3. What did you do yesterday?

4. Where would you like to go next weekend?

5. What are you going to do this afternoon?

12. What do you usually eat for breakfast?

17

Lesson 6 | Questions about Yourself Part 2 Objectives | In this lesson the students will learn how to answer question #5 of the

interview test. They will first prepare their answers in writing and then practice answering them with a partner.

Materials | Lesson 6 | Questions about Yourself Part 2 Worksheet

1. Welcome the students. Ask the students how they have been since the last lesson. Prepare different questions for each lesson to avoid repetition. Being asked the same question every week could be boring. Ask them about their schools, favorite music, how they have fun, relationships, fashion, etc.

2. Explain to the students that they are going to work on question #5 of the interview test. Question #5 is very similar to question #4. However, for this question, the interviewer asks one close-ended question (meaning you can answer with Yes or No), then depending on the answer, they will ask another question.

Do you like to play sports?

Yes – What sport do you like to play? No – What do you like to do with your friends?

3. Instruct the students to write their answers first for both the Yes and the No follow-up questions. As you did in the last class, have the students share their answers with the other students. Make corrections if necessary and if you can think of another way to answer the question, share it with the students after acknowledging that the students’ answers are all correct.

4. Make pairs for practice. The students can ask each other the questions and give their answers. You can walk around the room and observe how they are doing. When you think they need some help, go and help them. You can also remind the students that you will be available for help at any time during the practice.

5. Invite each pair to come to the front and demonstrate. Ask the students for good feedback/comments and for some helpful suggestions for improvement. You should always make the last comment and make it really positive!

6. Ask if anybody has any questions or comments. Thank the students for their participation. Encourage them to practice what they learned at home. Remind them that in the next lesson they will be practicing the interview test from the beginning to the end.

18

Lesson 6 | Questions about Yourself Part 2 Worksheet 1. Do you like to eat at restaurants?

Yes – Why?

No – What do you usually do on weekends? 2. Do you have any pets?

Yes – Please tell me about your pet or pets.

No – What do you like to do after dinner? 3. Do you often use a smartphone?

Yes – Please tell me more about it. No – Why not?

4. Are you interested in sports?

Yes – What kind of sport do you like?

No – What do you like to do in your free time? 5. Do you like to swim?

Yes – Please tell me more. No – What do you like to do in the summer?

19

Lesson 7 | Interview Test Part 1

Objectives | In this lesson the students will practice the whole interview test. They will review the interview test procedure (Lesson 1) and then go through all of the questions that they learned in the previous weeks.

Materials | Lesson 1 | Introduction Worksheet; Interview Test Materials 1 & 3

1. Welcome the students and ask them how they have been doing since the last lesson. You can also share something interesting that happened to you. Spend time with your students to nourish the relationship that you have been building over the past few weeks.

2. Explain to the students that they will be working on the whole interview test today. They will first review the test procedure (Use Lesson 1 Worksheet), and then practice the whole interview test.

3. Review the interview test procedure using the Lesson 1 Worksheet. You may want to make copies for those who do not have a copy of the worksheet with them.

4. In this class, the missionaries will play the role of the interviewer. Depending on the number of students and how many missionaries are familiar with English and the role of the interviewer, set up interview settings to facilitate the best use of time. Invite the students to have an interview test practice with the missionaries. Use Question Card #1 for this practice. When the interview ends provide them with positive feedback and some suggestions for improvement. Because the number of students to practice at one time is limited, it may be helpful to have the students who are waiting observe their classmates’ practice with the missionaries or give them another task to complete while waiting.

5. If you have time you may ask some or all of the students to come to the front and demonstrate their interview responses to the class. The class should provide positive feedback as well as some suggestions for improvement. You should always make the last comment to end with very positive feedback.

6. Ask if anybody has any questions or comments. Thank the students for their participation. Tell them they are doing well. Remind the students that the next lesson will be the last lesson of this course. They will be practicing once more the whole interview test.

20

Lesson 8 | Interview Test Part 2

Objectives | In this lesson the students will have one more chance to practice the

interview test. Materials | Lesson 1 | Introduction Worksheet, Interview Test Materials 2 & 3 1. Welcome the students and ask them how they have been since the last lesson. Remind

them that this will be the last lesson of the course, so you want them to have a really good time.

2. Before moving on to the practice, ask the students if they have any questions about the

interview test. Try and help them to find the answers to their questions. 3. Do the same practice that you did last week. This time, use Question Card #2. 4. Ask some or all of the students to come to the front of the class and demonstrate what

they practiced. Ask the other students for feedback. You should always offer the last input to end with positive feedback.

5. Tell the students that this will be the end of the course. Thank them for their

participation and acknowledge their hard work. If you have time, say a few words about each student. Invite them to keep in touch with you (other church activities, meet with you for gospel discussions if you haven’t asked them yet, etc.). It may also be nice to take a group picture.
