I am interested in English education in general, and I have conducted listening research focusing mainly on rehearsal speed and processing speed. I am examining the authentic use of English in countries and regions around the world, using research on World Englishes.
I am also interested in research on the relationship between speed-reading and listening comprehension with an awareness of English word order.
Currently, I would like to conduct research on the changes in English education in elementary, junior high and senior high schools due to the revision of the Course of Study, and on how to personally and professonally develop future English teachers at universities.
