Japanese parents' beliefs about children's early English education

在该项目的第二年，我采访了日本母亲，询问他们孩子的早期英语学习情况，即课外英语课程。这第二阶段的研究结果总结在一篇研究论文中，该论文目前正在由一家期刊进行审查。我还在一次国际会议上展示了这些成果。在这个项目的第三阶段，我正在对参加早期留学项目的日本家庭进行案例研究。使用访谈和心理学工具收集数据已于2022财年开始，并将在2023财年继续。

For the second year of this project, I interviewed Japanese mothers about their children`s early English learning, i.e. extra-curricular English lessons. Findings from this second stage were summarized in a research paper that is currently under review by a journal. I have also presented these results at an international conference.In the third phase of this project, I am conducting a case study on Japanese families who are participating in early study abroad programs. Data collection using interviews and pscyhological tools has commenced in FY 2022 and will continue in FY 2023.
