■ Message
I have been teaching Japanese language classes for English-basis students since 2006. My research interests focus on the use of corpus in Japanese language education. A corpus is a collection of computerized linguistic data that provides a useful way to discover the frequency of word and phrase usage. Using corpus in this way, I aim to explore the possibilities for vocabulary education from an objective perspective.
