Listening skills

Some strategies

Before you start listening

- what do you know about the subject?

- can you prepare for what you're going to listen to?

- decide what you want to learn 

from what you're going to listen to

What do you want to know?

- is it something you would want to listen to?

- do you just want to get the big picture?

- are you looking for an answer to a certain question?

-do you want to know everything?

Most of the time it's a combination of these questions

Is it something you want to listen to?

- what is it about?

- what is said about it?

- what's in it for me/how do I benefit from it? 

I want to get the big picture

- what are the main issues that are mentioned?

- how are they connected?

Looking for an answer

- what is being said about my question

this one is mostly used during tests and exams

Important: before you start

- what am I going to listen to?

(news, interview, commercial, presention)

- what is the subject and what do I already know about it?

(what kind of words and phrases can I expect)
