Better listening outcomes
Hugh Dellar National Geographic Learning
Summary
In this session, I’ll be suggesting that what has traditionally been thought of as ‘developing listening skills’ might better be framed as ‘developing vocabulary and working on the ability to hear language'. I’ll look at the classroom implications of this view and put forward some ways teachers can help students hear language through routines you can use with any class.
