◆◇What's so great about it? (Features) ◇◆
● Learning methods and coaching that solve the problem of inability to continue
With Smile ZEMI ENGLISH, learners can interact with their coaches to generate "personalized learning materials" in real time, based on the words they want to speak and the words they struggled to speak (patent pending).
● Focus on "frequently used words" (active vocabulary) for the fastest improvement.
There are "known words" that can be understood when read but are rarely used in conversation, and "frequently used words" that are actually used in conversation. Smile ZEMI ENGLISH focuses on these "frequently used words" for training, allowing you to improve your English conversation skills in the most efficient and rapid time possible.
● No memorization required, because learning is about you, not someone else.
Until now, English conversation learning has relied on pre-prepared, standardized learning materials. Smile ZEMI ENGLISH allows learners to learn about topics that are relevant to them, connected to their emotions and experiences, eliminating the need for memorization. This naturally increases motivation to learn and solves the problem of "uninteresting learning materials."
● Listening training that focuses on the differences between Japanese and English syllables
We provide listening training that focuses not on words, but on syllables, the smallest unit of pronunciation in native English speakers. This allows you to instantly experience the change from being unable to understand English to being able to understand it (patent pending).
● Speaking training that develops the ability to react quickly in 0.2 seconds
We provide speaking training that aims to achieve an "automated" state, where you can speak English without using Japanese. This allows you to develop the ability to connect a strong desire to communicate with expression and respond quickly, without having to go through the process of "thinking in Japanese, translating into English, and speaking."
● Dedicated coaches skillfully bring out the expressions you've learned
Smile ZEMI ENGLISH's AI coaches are more than just conversation partners. They provide coaching that is tailored to the learner and guides their conversational learning. For example, they skillfully bring up topics and encourage speaking so that you can use the phrases you've learned in real conversations (patent pending).
●Measure retention with a realistic mock phone lesson.
The coach asks questions over the phone to encourage learners to naturally use the words they practiced but couldn't say before. The uniquely tense atmosphere of a phone call allows for a realistic test of how well you've retained your learning, and the repeated success of having your English understood will lead to greater self-confidence.
●Only Smile ZEMI ENGLISH lets you learn the English you really want to say.
When you first start learning English, it's easy to say only what you can say, rather than what you really want to say. Smile ZEMI ENGLISH's AI coach draws out the words you really want to say, which can be easily expressed in Japanese, rapidly expanding the range of English you can speak.
●A personalized training menu to help you learn without hesitation.
After the conversation, the coach supports effective reflection by evaluating good points and suggesting more appropriate expressions. It also generates optimal training menus and materials to guide you toward steady growth.
●Make effective use of times when you can't speak.
We flexibly adapt our training content to accommodate learners' specific needs, such as whether they can speak or not, to help them make the most of their limited study time.
◆◇How to Learn to Speak English◇◆
●Our "native language approach"—not the "direct method" that has long been the norm for English conversation learning—helps you acquire conversational English in the shortest possible time.
●"Being able to speak English" means having an abundance of "frequently used words" that come out of your mouth instantly. In "Smile ZEMI ENGLISH," words that come out of your mouth instantly, or that you need to be able to speak, are stored as "training cards" and can be reviewed using forgetting curve theory. By creating cards, you can feel like you're constantly increasing your vocabulary, strongly encouraging continued training.
●We utilize the cutting-edge AI and digital learning technology we've cultivated through our AI-powered distance learning program, "Smile ZEMI," to ensure continued learning.
●Focusing on the differences between Japanese and English syllables, listening training focuses on syllables—the smallest unit of English pronunciation—rather than on words. This allows you to instantly "understand!" what you're hearing.
●Rather than following the process of "thinking in Japanese, translating into English, and speaking," this speaking training connects a strong desire to communicate with expression, allowing you to instantly "speak!"
●Vocabulary is thoroughly trained in both reading and listening to promote the consolidation of spoken vocabulary.
●English conversation is not a classroom subject (lecture), but a practical subject, with training focused on the "number of seconds" to respond.
◆◇Main Features◇◆
[Talk Lessons]
●Practical English conversation lessons with a personal coach.
●Start an English conversation lesson anytime, focusing on the topic you want to talk about at the time. Your coach will flexibly adapt the topic to suit your learning situation.
●If you can't understand the English during the lesson, you can "listen again," check the "English text," or "Japanese translation."
● Also, if you get stuck on a phrase, just speak in Japanese and your coach will help you find the appropriate English expression. This allows you to efficiently practice speaking what you really want to say in English.
● After each lesson, your coach will provide specific feedback and suggest the optimal training menu for you.
[Listening Training]
● By training you to listen to English syllables rather than words, you can address the underlying causes of your English comprehension problems.
● In this training, you will first move away from the image of katakana sounds and practice listening to English syllables as they are and saying them out loud, becoming accustomed to the natural rhythm of English.
● Also, for sound changes like "Check it out" becoming "chekerau," instead of memorizing the rules, you will memorize the pattern by repeatedly listening and pronouncing the words.
[Speaking Training]
● This training thoroughly develops the "spontaneity" necessary for conversation.
● Using what students themselves "wanted to say" and "couldn't say," students engage in output training, pretending to be able to say those words from the beginning.
● By repeatedly practicing output from various perspectives, students develop the ability to instantly connect emotions with English expressions.
● Furthermore, by constructing English sentences by meaningful chunks, students become accustomed to the unique word order of English.
● Furthermore, by making students aware of reaction time, they hone their ability to think and speak in English without relying on Japanese.
● Finally, students retry situations they struggled to express the first time, and by experiencing their own improvement, they are motivated to learn and ultimately acquire genuine speaking ability.
[Call Coaching]
● This is a simulated phone lesson where the coach calls, just like a real lesson.
● The coach skillfully asks questions in English to encourage students to naturally use the "words they couldn't say" they have practiced.
● The moderate tension inherent in phone calls allows students to test their learning and gain confidence by repeatedly experiencing success in English.
●In addition, since your conversation cannot be heard by those around you, even those who are hesitant to speak English in public can concentrate on their speaking practice with peace of mind.
[Word/Phrase Training]
● A training card is automatically generated for each learner based on expressions they were unable to hear or say during talk lessons.
● Word/phrase training promotes memory retention by using both reading and listening approaches.
● Furthermore, proficiency is assessed based on response speed, and review is encouraged at optimal times based on forgetting curve theory, allowing you to efficiently strengthen your vocabulary.
[Other Learning Support Features]
● Flexible learning modes for any situation
- Switch to a learning menu that does not require speaking when you cannot speak out loud, such as during your commute.
- Switch between "Deep Learning Mode" for concentrated study and "Deep Learning Mode" for quick review in spare time to efficiently progress through your studies.
● Objective evaluation of skills and training volume to visualize growth
- Visualize pronunciation, accuracy of English sentences, speaking reaction speed, and more.
・You can objectively understand your progress with each training card.
●CEFR-compliant level design measures proficiency against a global standard.
・Learners' English proficiency is assessed in accordance with the international standard CEFR, and the difficulty level of vocabulary and grammar is automatically adjusted accordingly.
