With these books you will: * learn to listen appropriately + leam to understand correctly + learn to make more sense of what you hear, ‘You will hear a variety of sources such as conversations, messages, radio broadcasts, and other forms of real English, and you will learn to listen both for detail and for the general meaning. ‘As students you want to feel confident in real-life situations when you are speaking English. Through this series you will hear what real English speakers say in everyday situations, such as meeting strangers or planning a celebration, and learn to understand the words they use. ‘This series prepares you to react appropriately to the people you meet by helping you to make sense of the meaning behind the words they use. You will learn about the influences of a speaker's mood, location, and background on the language she or he uses. ‘You will gain confidence in listening and responding to everyday situations in English, You'll be able to react to the personalities of the people you meet, understand the wards they use, and make sense of what you hear.Introduction to the Teacher This three-book listening series helps make every minute of the classroom experience as rich as the real world. The topics, the activities, the personalities, the beliefs, and the accents reflect the variety in the world around us. In the series, students meet different people, discuss different things, have different attitudes, and have different reactions. ‘To make the Hstening experience as authentic as possible, the series presents listening challenges from a variety of sources: dialogs, recorded messages, monologues, radio broadcasts, reviews, public service announcements, and weather announcements, In these books students tackle real-world tasks that prepare them for the kind of listening they will do outside the classroom: listening for different purposes, making inferences, personalizing the experience, and making assumptions and predictions. Students need to be actively involved in the process of learning to listen and listening to learn, because this makes learning much more effective. This is achieved by asking them to listen for a purpose, read the elues about speakers’ mood, intention and background, and making students aware of the process they use in their own native language to make linguistic input comprehensible. Students wish to react and express themselves appropriately in real-life situations. For that reason, all three books show how people react and cope in everyday situations — and they do so in a way that shows their personality, character, and attitude, By listening to, observing, and judging people in these contexts, students will learn that they too are able ta express their personality when they speak English — a major step in becoming proficient in English.@ What's going on?
