영어, 도대체 어디서부터 어떻게 시작해야 할까?

영어 잘하기를 꿈꾸는 모든 사람들에게 꼭 필요한 책!

365일 매일 영어! 나도 영어 잘할 수 있다!



단어만 알아도 상대방이 하는 말을 이해할 수 있고, 의사소통을 할 수 있다. 단어를 다양하게 알게 되면 소통의 폭은 훨씬 더 넓어진다. 〈영어독립단어〉 서비스는 영어 실력이 어떤 레벨이든, 자기 수준에 맞춰 실제로 쓰이는 영어 단어를 우선순위로 정리하여 단어를 더 효율적으로 습득할 수 있도록 돕는 영어학습 서비스이다. 『영어독립 365』는 〈영어독립단어〉 서비스를 이용하는 분들이 ‘영어 단어를 공부한 후에, 재미있게 영어를 매일 접할 수 있는 방법이 없을까?’라는 고민에서 시작해 영어독립단어 콘텐츠팀과 신미주 작가가 오랜 시간 함께 집필한 책이다.



이 책은 365일 동안 매일 다양한 영어 콘텐츠를 효율적이고 체계적으로 학습할 수 있도록 구성되었다. 평일에는 요일별로 각기 다른 섹션에서 단어, 문법, 독해를 아우르는 영어 학습을 제공하고, 주말에는 영어의 기본적인 동사와 전치사를 학습할 수 있게 한다. 영어 공부뿐만 아니라 학습 전반에 관한 동기부여가 되는 콘텐츠도 실려 있어 효율적인 공부법과 자기계발에 도움을 준다.



『영어독립 365』는 단순히 책을 읽고 끝내는 것이 아니라, 다양한 방식으로 영어를 공부할 수 있도록 〈영어독립〉 유튜브 채널에서 학습 콘텐츠를 제공한다. 책에 언급된 모든 영어 문장을 원어민 음성으로 들을 수 있고, 각 주마다 재생시간이 나누어져 학습 후 듣기 공부를 이어서 할 수 있다. 책을 다 보고 나서도 영어 공부를 지속할 수 있도록 여러 종류의 학습 콘텐츠를 〈영어독립〉 유튜브를 통해 꾸준히 제공할 예정이다.

〈상상스퀘어〉에서 영어 공부에 열정과 전문성을 갖춘 연구원들이 모인 '영어독립단어 콘텐츠팀'은 영어의 스트레스로부터 독립하고자 하는 모든 사람에게 ‘어떻게 하면 매일 쉽고 재미있게 영어를 접하게 할까?’라는 고민을 하였고, 책 한 권 만으로도 쉽고 재미있게 영어를 습득할 수 있도록 《영어독립 365》를 기획하고 집필했다. ‘영어독립단어 콘텐츠팀’은 앞으로도 영어 학습자들이 꾸준히 학습을 이어나갈 수 있도록 다양한 콘텐츠를 계속 제작할 예정이다.
