This study examined the effectiveness of analysis with near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) for English as foreign language (EFL) training, from a brain science perspective. The experiment presented in this paper analyzed the amount of blood flow in the brain while learners were training to improve their English listening skills. The experiment attempted to ascertain the preferable combinations of learners’ characteristics and teaching materials when learners are completing training in English listening. This was done by comparing the brain activities of learners from different English proficiency levels. The data suggests that the analysis, using Functional Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (fNIRS), enabled the proposition of an effective course design for EFL learners.
