120 hr. TEFL Course Module 6-Listening (Pt.1 Intro)

Module 6: Listening

 

Listening is extremely important in learning a language because most of your students are learning the language to be able to verbally communicate. Helping your students speak in English is great, but that will not help them in a conversation unless they can understand what others are saying. Throughout your class, you will be easing your students into the language by speaking slowly and giving them the chance to decode what you are trying to say. Once they go out into the world, they will have to comprehend what people are saying no matter how quickly they speak. In this module, we will discuss many of the strategies that your students will need to become conversationally fluent in English, including how to decode sounds, how to break down speech, and how to summarize ideas that others are presenting to them.
