    I wanted to ask you one thing, you tell me to listen to the English language but I am fine listening to it but if I don't understand it then whom will I ask and who will resolve my dilemma, then what will be the meaning of my listening,

    • @LearnAcademicEnglish
      @LearnAcademicEnglish  4 місяці тому

      That's a good question! You need to find places to practice your listening. For example, try www.cnn.com/cnn10 for daily listening practice .When you feel comfortable, try TED Talks or watching a series in English. You can use Youglish to listen to words, so for example, when you want to know how to pronounce a word, search it in Youglish and listen to what people say. Also, you can try my listening practices: ua-cam.com/play/PLTaPDxv5nudkDnWJFJsvK8UrLv37HtV00.html

      lol, it's true! I tend to use more gestures than other people because of my work. A lot of my students have lower level listening skills in English, so I have to use a lot of gestures to help them understand me, and now it's just a bad habit. 😂
