LEARNING HOW TO LISTEN

So far we have guidelines to improve our grammar, our vocabulary, our reading and our writing.


This lesson will discuss "Learning to Listen in English".
Learn to listening in English is basic and really important. If you want to communicate with English speakers, you have to understand them! But don’t worry; we just have to understand the general message. We don’t have to waste time and comprehension trying to understand every single word.
How can I learn to listen?
Well, some things that can help us is to listening the following things (they are plenty useful):
       -       Music.
You can try to do some things: If you go to youtube.com, you can look for an English song with subtitles. In this way, you can accustom your hear to English and expand your vocabulary.
Other way is to go to the following web: http://www.lyricstraining.com/ . In this web you have to search the song that you want. Then, you have to select the level that you have. When you click on play there will appear the music video that you’ve select and then will appear the lyrics with some gaps that you have to fill.
    -       Films and TV Series or TV programs. I recommend you to start with the North American ones. It will be easier for you because sometimes they speak slowly. If you find them so difficult you can put the subtitles in your language.
    -       Master classes of the American. North American Universities are the best of the world. Some of them have videos of their Master Classes on YouTube. For example, YALE university have the transcription and the link to go to see the class at YouTube or you can   listen the class in MP3 format.This link will show you a Music Class
