Pre-listening

The pre-listening stage helps our students to prepare for
what they are going to hear, and this gives them a greater
chance of success in any given task.

 The students hear the input once, probably listening for gist,
although of course there may be occasions when they need
to listen for specific information or listen in details. They
check their answers in pairs or groups.

13
 The whole class checks
answers, discusses
difficulties such as unknown
vocabulary, and responds
to the content of the
passage, usually orally,
sometimes in writing. This
may be done as a whole
class, pairs or groups.

 An able listener is capable of doing these four things
simultaneously: understanding a speaker's accent or
pronunciation, his grammar and his vocabulary, and
grasping his meaning.

 Listening in real contexts without forcing learning to be

able to appropriate listening.

 Passing the exams should not be our final goal.
