A study conducted by the Institute of Development, Aging and Cancer (IDAC), Tohoku University, found that reading English aloud not only stimulates the prefrontal cortex, but also has the effect of enhancing English learning and memory.
\nThe study tested how many English words can be learned in 2 minutes by undergraduate and graduate students, individuals of an average age 40 and average age 50 years old.
\nThose with an average age of 50 remembered an average of 10 words. However, after a month of reading aloud, they were able to remember up to 14 words on average.
\nIt can be said that their memory clearly improved. It is thought that when reading English aloud, the function of the memory circuit in the brain improves and it becomes easier for English words to be memorized.
\nThis is because reading silently (“seeing”) or “listening” in English is not as effective as reading aloud using “see”, “speak” and “listen” at the same time. It can be seen that it is important to use many parts of the brain that control sensory information at the same time in order to fix memory.
\nTo further improve memory, copying what is read aloud in English into a notebook is recommended as a method to make it more memorable, because you will have to write more.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
