Listening
to podcasts is a great way to improve your listening skills. It gets your ears
and brain used to the language you are currently learning without much
pressure. I listen to them in my free time as well and find it really helpful
when I’m trying to learn something new. These podcasts are also very easy to have
access to. If you are an iPhone user, a podcast application is readily
available on your phone. Just look for this purple icon, click it and search
for a podcast you might be into.
If you are an android user on the other hand,
you can get your podcasts right from this Google podcast icon,
or from this green one if you have it downloaded on your phone.

In this first blog post,
I’d like to share a few ones I have come across on my iPhone podcast app. These
are mainly for beginning learners of English and those who prefer bilingual
podcasts. The list comes with points to consider which would hopefully help you
find the best podcast for you.
ポッドキャストを聴くのはリスニングスキルをあげるのに最適! いま習っている言語に、耳や頭が無理なく慣れていくことでしょう。私もなにか新しいことを学ぼうってときには、時間があればポッドキャストを聴いているし、それがとても役立っています。ポッドキャットの使い方はとても簡単。iPhone使っているならアプリは最初から入っているし、アンドロイドユーザーでもこのGoogleポッドキャストアイコンやこの緑色のアイコン(spotify)で使えるようになる。今回は私がiPhoneアプリで見つけたおすすめのものをみんなとシェアしておこうとおもいます。今回紹介するものは基本初心者向きで日本語を交えたものがよい、という人向けです。みんなに役立ってもらえるであろうものをリスト化したつもりなので、きっといいのが見つかるはず!

This
podcast claims to be one of the best for those learning and practicing English
language simply because the host speaks in a much slower pace than the native
speed. Words are enunciated very clearly and if you ever miss a word, you need
not to worry for it comes with a transcript on its website. It’s not directly
linked to the episode but it should be easy to find. The episodes are around 20
minutes long, covering various topics you might find interesting.

Intermediate
1:Plain
English- 3.5 票 超初心者~中級向け
このポッドキャストはホストが通常のネイティブが話すスピードよりもゆっくり話してくれる、という単純な理由で、英語を学び練習している人たちに一番よい、とされています。とてもはっきりした発音ですし、うっかり聞き漏らしてもウェブサイトに会話内容が書いてあるので心配なし。エピソードと直接のつながりはない単語だったとしても、簡単に見つけられるはず。エピソードは20分程度の長さでいろんなトピックが含まれているから、きっと好きなのがあるよ。
2. Voice of America-
4.0 Rating
Narrated by an American English
Speaker(s)
This
is a great language news and information podcast that provides a series of programs
in English. It is narrated in English and spoken at a slower speed making it
easier to listen to. But I must say that it still depends on the speaker. I
have noticed that the pace varied from one narrator to another. They also cover
a variety of topics but use vocabulary which is easy to understand and
remember. It also has a transcript on their website although not indicated on
the podcast provider. The episodes are around 30 minutes long.

Upper Intermediate, Advanced
2:Voice
of America- 4.0 票 脱初心者~脱中級
英語でさまざまなプログラムを提供する、ニュースと情報のポッドキャスト。英語のナレーションがゆっくりですので、話し手によるかもしれないけど聞きとりやすいです。話すペースは話し手によって差異がありますが、理解しやすく覚えやすい単語を使っていろんなトピックを話してくれます。プロバイダーからの記載はないけど、こちらもウェブサイトに会話内容がのっています。トピックはどれも30分前後です。
Narrated by Japanese narrators speaking in American English
If
you are a beginning English language learner, I believe that this podcast will
be a good one for you. The episodes are shorter, which are around 2 to 3
minutes long. The show introduces words and phrases that are related to each
other. The host differentiates them by explaining their meanings and giving
examples. The narration pace is slow and the enunciation is very clear. The
podcast also allows shadowing, making it a good way to practice pronunciation.
It has a website you can check out for more information.
Level: Beginner
3:エイゴの時間- 3.5票 超初心者向け
まだ英語の習い始めなら、たぶんこのポッドキャストが一番。エピソードは2~3分と短いし、たがいに関連する単語やフレーズを紹介、ホストはそれらの意味説明と例文でわかりやすくしてくれます。ナレーションはゆっくりで発音もとてもはっきりしています。シャドーイングの練習もできるので発音練習にもいいです。ウェブサイトもあるのでチェックしてみてね。
Narrated by a Japanese-American
narrator speaking in American English
This
podcast is made for you if you prefer listening to English sentences’ Japanese
translation. The show is solely hosted by a Japanese-American founder and
writer of Hapa Eikaiwa, which is also the name of the podcast. The
episodes are narrated in both languages, Japanese and English and in a normal
speaking pace. They also have a website where the scripts of the episodes can
be found. The topics they cover are about Japanese and foreign society and
culture. It also brings in a question to be answered in the beginning part of
the episode.
Level: Intermediate to
Advanced
4:Hapa 英会話- 4.0 票 中上級
英語の文章の日本語訳を聞きたいのならおすすめ。ポッドキャストの名前である「Hapa英会話」の日系アメリカ人設立者兼ライターさんが運営されています。
エピソードは日本語と英語両方、スピードはふつうかな。ウェブサイトもあるので会話内容もそこでわかります。日本と外国の社会や文化などがトピックになっていて、エピソードの最初に質問があり、それに答える形式になっているの。
Narrated by an American English
speaker and a Japanese Speaker
Having
a presence on all social networking sites, this podcast really proves to be
relevant and interactive with their listeners. The program is hosted by two
people, one native English speaker and one Japanese speaker. It also comes with
a transcript uploaded on their website you can check out for further
information. The show covers different topics as well and introduces useful
words expressions in the episode. You might fancy this podcast if you prefer an
easy listening program. Speakers talk in a normal pace which might be a little
more challenging for beginning learners of English.
Level: Intermediate to
Advanced
5: 台本なし英会話レッスン - 4.0 Rating 中上級
現時点でのSNSのなかでこれがポッドキャストとしてとても妥当でリスナーと対話型といえるかしら。ネイティブと日本人の二人がホスト役をつとめていて、ウェブサイトに会話内容がアップされているしさらなる情報もそこでチェックすることができます。いろんなトピックとあわせて役立つ単語表現が紹介されています。簡単なリスニングプログラムがお好みな人にはこれが好みとなるはず。英語学びはじめの人には話し手のスピードが遅いわけじゃないのでちょっと大変かも。
I hope you find this list interesting! Next week, I will be sharing
more of my podcast recommendations. Please look forward to it as well. J
お気に入りが見つかったかな?おすすめのポッドキャスト、次回さらにみんなに紹介する予定なのでお楽しみに!
