準備学習の内容・学ぶ上での注意

Be sure to prepare for the lessons. You will study while writing in the textbook but also prepare a notebook. Also, prepare a file to keep a record of the works you wrote. Please be sure to bring an English-Japanese, Japanese-English, or English-English dictionary. When writing an essay, an electronic dictionary is not useful because it refers to many example sentences.
