Discussion: listening strategies
Listening occurs in 3 stages:
Before
During
After
Each stage is equally important - predict before you listen, don't be distracted by words you don't know while you are listening, and fill in anything you have missed using context after you have listened.
Homework
Go to the BBC or another website and download a podcast.
Podcasts about international news are useful as you can always read a report in an Italian newspaper first and then listen to how the same story is reported in English.
Choose a short broadcast (maximum 5 minutes) but listen to it 3 or 4 times. Do you understand more each time you listen? Did you find any new words?
