Listening Strategies for Success : Introduction to Academic Listening

Abstract

Listening Strategies for Success enables English language learners to develop academic listening and note-taking skills. Students at the high-beginner/low-intermediate level listen to conversations and presentations on everyday topics such as holidays, food, and travel. Using interactive activities, students learn useful vocabulary and check their understanding. Each chapter introduces a strategy that can be used to improve listening comprehension and note-taking. Discussion questions provide extension activities.
