How to Improve Your Listening Skills How are your listening skills? Listening in any language can be a challenge. You have to focus on the other person, understand their verbal and non-verbal cues and respond in the right way. Listening and comprehending what a native speaker says is an important part of learning English. After all, how can you have a conversation if you don’t understand what the other person is saying? Here are three tips that can help you improve your listening skills in English! Tip One: ___________________ This tip is useful when you are practicing your listening skills using podcasts, music, TEDtalks or other audio-only material. The first time you listen, you should just listen straight through without stopping. The second time you could pause when there is a word you don’t know or a sentence you don’t understand and do some research. Chances are, if you listen a third time, you’ll understand a lot more! Tip Two: Find a Conversation Partner One of the best ways to improve your listening skills naturally is to practice listening in active conversation. This can be accomplished by having a native speaker, or someone who is more fluent than you are, to talk to. It’s best to find someone who you can hire to do this. Or find someone who wants to do language exchange and make a trade! Tip Three: Listen for Key Words In English, not every word in a sentence is important. If you try to listen to every single word that someone is saying while you’re still learning, you’re going to get frustrated. Instead, focus on the nouns, especially proper nouns like names, places and dates, and verbs so that you can understand the actions and movement of what the speaker is trying to communicate. Finding these key words will make your life a lot easier! Although listening to native English speakers can be difficult and tiring, it gets easier and easier as you practice. Hope these tips can help you!
