Promoting Active Listening in the EFL/ESL Classroom

Sunday, June 18th, 2017, 1:30 PM - 4:00 PM

Speaker: Chris Donaldson

Despite its obvious importance, listening as a language skill can often lack the focus placed on the other areas of language such as speaking, reading, and writing. Learning to listen actively can greatly improve a studentfs ability to achieve understanding. This workshop aims to help participants explore the concept of active listening in language teaching. Through a series of interactive activities participants will see what it is to listen actively and how effective it can be as a teaching tool. Finally, the workshop will present some interesting ways in which this concept can be applied in the classroom.
