| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In the current study, I have interviewed 40 successful foreign language learners and recorded their actual learning histories and experiences, by applying the theory and the method of ‘oral history’ to the research of foreign language education. Based on the qualitative analysis of narratives collected from advanced learners of English and other languages as a foreign language, this study has obtained several pedagogical implications for Japanese English learners who wish to acquire advanced level language skills most efficiently.
I presented the result of my study not only to the researchers of English education but also to Japanese language learners including university and high school students. One of the important achievements is my contribution to a book entitled Literature and Language Learning in the EFL Classroom (2015) published by Palgrave Macmillan. I also gave presentations at domestic and international conferences, including Poetics and Linguistics Associations.
