■ 英語リスニング入門に適したVOA
VOA (Voice
of America) は、アメリカ合衆国政府の国営放送で、英語学習者に対して平易な英語での英語ニュースや英語学習番組を提供しています。特に以下の中級 (Intermediate Level) と上級 (Advanced Level) の英語学習番組は、非常にゆっくりした英語で録音され、本文書き起こしも備えています。日本の高校生や大学生が英語リスニングを学び始めるのには適しているでしょう。

■ VOAが提供する発音解説ビデオ
VOAはアメリカ英語の発音および聞き取りを学ぶためのビデオを多く公開しています。それぞれのビデオは短く、ややゆっくりした英語で作成され、かつ字幕もついていますので、発音やリスニングに苦手意識をもっている人には適しているでしょう。
ただVOAの発音解説ビデオはただ連続して並べられているだけなので、どこから見れば戸惑う学習者もいるかもしれません。そこでこの記事では、2023/07/03現在で掲載されているVOA発音解説ビデオを分類してリストにすることにしました。
なお1-2分で終わる短いビデオをかえって疎ましく思う人は、以下の記事を見ることをお勧めします。
