A note about listening
Students can easily be demotivated when faced by tasks that are very challenging, particularly the first few times, but continued practice will gradually lead to an understanding of the text, and you will gradually start to relax more about dealing with more difficult texts. In the long run you will develop a much greater sense of achievement and experience far less stress when dealing with challenging listening situations in the real world.
