5 Reasons Why Listening Is Important for Foreign Language Learning

5 Reasons Why Listening Is Important for Foreign Language Learning When a native speaker  starts talking in your target language, does it sound like Charlie Browns teacher blabbing?Blah, blah, blah.Do you struggle to understand when  listening in your target language?Do you spend whole conversations stressing that you cant find the right words to say?Believe it or not, this can happen to you even if youre  great at reading, a wizard at learning vocabulary and have translation skills that would make a baby laugh  (which is actually a good thing).You might begin to wonder whether youll ever be able to hold a nice, natural-sounding conversation.No matter how you feel about listening to your target language, and no matter how much progress youve made so far, the importance of listening is undeniable. Why Listening Is Vital for Language LearnersMany language learners focus a lot on speaking. They dont spend as much  effort on  quietly listening.Listening seems like it should be simple, or secondary to other more active language skills. To the surprise of many new learners, listening to a foreign language is difficult. If youve ever had to sit for a second language test, youll know that the listening section is almost always the hardest.But, listening is a vital skill for language learning.Research  shows that when we communicate, we spend around 40-50% of our time listening, 25-30% speaking, 11-16% reading and only 9% writing (although that last one might have changed in recent years due to the rise in social media).That means we spend about half the time listening!The question is: Do you spend half your language learning time on listening exercises?… if youre anything like me, you probably dont.5 Reasons Why Listening Is Important for Foreign Language LearningThe solution is to spend more time listening in our second language. However, its vital that we learn to listen effectively.Often, weve not been specifically taught how to listen in a foreign language, or if we have weve not been taught properly.Lets delve into the resear ch to find why listening is important and how we can improve our foreign language listening skills.1. Listening Is an Active ProcessIf youve ever sat in a group of people speaking in a foreign language, youll be familiar with the uncomfortable feeling that you should be joining in. You feel like, if youre not saying something, youre not really engaging in the conversation.Nothing could be further from the truth. The problem is that  youre confusing a silent process with a passive process.Listening is a very active process, despite the fact youre not saying anything. Thats why youre so tired when you go home after a social event in another language.Getting over the feeling that we are “doing nothing” is a key step towards listening effectively.One solution is to employ active listening techniques, to remind yourself and others that youre involved in the conversation even if you dont speak so much.Here are some tips to show that you are actively listening:Make eye contact with the person whos talking.Lean forward slightly to show interest. If youre actually listening this should be natural.Nod your head slightly to show youre understanding.Make agreeing noises and nod your head if you agree with something theyve said.Dont look distracted by fidgeting, playing with your phone or looking off into the distance.2. The “Silent Period” Is GoldenChildren who learn a second language often go through a  â€œsilent period”  where they dont say anything. Language teachers and researchers  havent totally agreed whether its a necessary stage of language learning, or how long it should be. But, they do agree that many children experience it.Its fair to say that most adults dont go through any silent period at all. We often try to jump straight into speaking.The problem with trying to speak from the beginning is that a period of silent listening can actually be hugely beneficial.One big reason is that speaking can be quite a nerve-racking experience. I find it as stre ssful as performing on stage. As new learners, were thinking so much about what we should say next that we dont fully experience what the other person has said. We suffer from “task overload.”Allowing yourself to be silent lets you get the most from listening.However, speaking successfully in a foreign language can also be very rewarding. Speaking motivates us to continue learning. And we wouldnt want to lose our motivation, would we?The answer isnt to give up speaking altogether. Its to give ourselves permission to be silent, and not beat ourselves up if we dont say much. Speak when you can, but you dont have to force it.We can benefit both from the motivation of speaking and the listening benefits of a silent period.3. Your Brain Is a Foreign Language GoldfishWould it surprise you to learn that your short-term memory is even shorter in a foreign language?When you think about it, it makes sense.  How often have you forgotten what someone has just said in your target language?   For me, at least, it happens a lot more than in my native tongue.Listening is a vital step in overcoming this problem.But, why does it happen?Not to get into too much detail, although it is fascinating, this effect might be due to how our short-term memory works. When we listen to someone talking, our brain starts processing the information by “segmenting” it into small chunks to store in our short-term memory. It splits them up based on our knowledge of the “rules” for how the language is spoken. Instead of storing the actual words “a green goldfish,” our brain would maybe convert those words into an image of a green goldfish for storage.In a foreign language, we arent familiar with the “segmentation rules” for how the language is spoken. Our short-term memory has to store all the words individually.One reason why listening is so important in a foreign language is that it helps us become familiar with those segmentation rules.Not only will it boost your understandin g, it will improve your speaking in the language too.Learning segmentation rules is usually an unconscious process, so the easiest way to learn them is to get lots of listening practice.Here are some ways to become more familiar with a languages segmentation rules:Watch films in your target language.Read a book while also listening along to the audio book version.Attend social events with natives and spend time just listening.Listen to the radio in your target language.Watch videos online in your target language.FluentU is one great way to find interesting, approachable video content in your target language. It provides carefully selected videos from all over the Internet in your target language, many featuring natural, casual speech. It also provides dynamic subtitles which go along with the video, which means that you can see how the spoken segmentation rules relate to the written phrases.4. Our Listening Strategies Are Upside-downIf you learned a language in school, what listenin g strategy were you taught?Myself, I remember that a listening exam went like this: listen to a tape (Yes. It was all tapes in those days) and then translate what wed heard. The specifics were important, the difference between a pass and a fail. You would lose marks if you messed up the gender of a word, for example. As far as I can see, thats still how listening is still taught in my home country.Language researchers call this a  bottom-up listening strategy.Bottom-up listening is an okay strategy to use in the classroom. It means carefully listening to each word, pronoun and sentence structure to work out what has been said. Unfortunately, its not a complete listening strategy for use in the real world.In the real world, you cant spend all your listening energy focusing on specific grammar while people speak. Theyll keep talking and youll be lost.Top-down listening, on the other hand, is a great strategy to add more understanding of whats being said.Top-down listening strategies f ocus on concepts. Bottom-up listening strategies focus on words. Both are necessary to be an effective listener.It basically means that you learn a little about the spoken topic beforehand. Here are a few suggestions for implementing a top-down listening strategy for some common activities:If youre going to see a movie or theater play in a foreign language, read the story first.Read up on the topic before going to see a presentation.Try reading about or predicting the content of an audio passage before you listen to it. This will get your brain focusing on concepts and not just specific words.Hang about with a friend who repeats the same anecdote when with different people. You already know the story, so your comprehension will go up dramatically. Its also a great way to make a potentially annoying situation into a useful learning exercise.5. The Gist Is Only Half the Story (or Less)Finally, one thing that we often neglect when listening in another language is to check exactly how m uch we have understood.Beyond a certain level of language ability, we often “get the gist” of what was said. However, sometimes we havent understood as much as we think.Next time you listen to something in your target language, try these six short, easy exercises to prove to yourself that youve understood what was said:Try drawing a picture of what was said.Ask yourself some questions about it and try to answer them.Provide a summary of what was said.Suggest what might come next in the “story.”Translate what was said into another language.“Talk back” to the speaker to engage in imaginary conversation (I do this when listening to the radio).Commit to ListeningAs you can see, listening is pretty important. Are you ready to commit to listening better in your target language?Just remember to use active listening techniques, allow yourself to have a silent period, listen lots to learn  the segmentation rules  of spoken language and flip your listening upside-down by incorpora ting top-down listening strategies.When you follow the exercises to check how much youve understood, youll be amazed at the change!Alex Owen-Hill is a European freelance writer.

On-site accommodation for Teachers - Tutor Hunt Blog

On-site accommodation for Teachers On-site accommodation for Teachers On-site accommodation for TeachersSchoolsRules may be relaxed permitting schools to build on-site accommodation for teachers There are indications that certain planning regulations, currently prohibiting building on regulated lands, are about to be changed. The impetus behind this alteration is to permit some schools to build on-site accommodation for teachers. Many schools throughout the United Kingdom are in possession of large amounts of land - often hundreds of acres - which they are currently disbarred from developing, a legal prevention order similar to that protecting green belt land. The news featured in the Department for Education`s flagship Teacher Recruitment and Retention Strategy, published last week, which noted the difficulty many teachers had in securing affordable accommodation, especially in major cities: `We know that housing is an issue for teachers in areas of short supply,` and `We will explore whether there is demand from teachers for new homes on surplus school land. `If there is clear and sufficient demand, we will work with the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government to explore whether an extension of permitted development rights is needed to speed up such developments.` The chief executive of the Harris Federation of Academies Sir Dan Moynihan, has stated that `if someone doesn`t do something, there will be no public sector workers left in London.` A federation commissioned by Sir Moynihan Back in 2017 had apparently located `six or seven` sites, where there was sufficient land, `surplus to the play[ground] requirements` where accommodation could be built. Obviously this kind of construction work needs to be regulated - we want to avoid a situation where, ten or fifteen years in the future there is ample accommodation for teachers on-site, but significantly less play areas for children. The LocatED company is a government-owned property company, set up to creating `much-needed school places for thousands of children.` Its chief executive, Lara Newman, has said the organisation is working hard to see how it can develop accommodation on school sites `including teacher housing where there`s a problem`. Everyone knows there is a serious problem with teacher retention, throughout the UK, but in major cities especially. In London the problem has reached critical levels, with government figures published last year revealing that four out of 10 quit the profession within five years of qualifying. That is a sad statistic indeed: 40% of newly qualified teachers will have left the profession before they have spent five years in it. A report published in September of 2018, entitled `Analysis of teacher supply, retention and mobility,` disclosed that out of the 35,000 newly qualified teachers (NQTs) who began teaching in London during 2010, more than 11,000 have already left. There are many reasons why retention in the teaching profession is so low: high workload and stress are certainly part of the problem - but low wages obviously play a significant role. A significant number of teachers in the capital are struggling to pay rent, and there are reports that many teachers are on the edge of homelessness. Labor MP Matthew Pennycock, who analysed the September 2018 government report, said that the problem of poor teacher retention certainly included: `Workload, stagnant pay, rising living costs and a lack of genuinely affordable housing to rent and buy [these are certainly things] that lie behind this worrying trend.` The Commons Public Accounts Committee cited high housing costs in many cities as a significant factor in the teacher recruitment and retention crisis. Mp`s asked the Department for Education `if it had considered using land that it pays for to help provide affordable housing for teachers`. In response to this question, a report on teaching supply revelled that the DfE had engaged in`discussions with individual multi-academy trusts and local authorities about such initiatives and was willing to talk to any schools with proposals to support teachers with housing`. If more schools are given permission to build accommodation on their land, this would alleviate at least some of the problems for teachers. What we don`t want of course is schools seeing the relaxation of building regulations as an avaricious opportunity to develop private housing for the general public. 13 months ago0Add a Comment

Organic Chemistry Professor Uses Theorem

Organic Chemistry Professor Uses TheoremMany students of Chem are asking if the Organic Chemistry Tutor calculus Extreme Value Theorem has any application to real life chemistry work. Let me explain how I feel about this and if it applies to what we do on a day to day basis in class. The most basic need of every student is a good grasp of things and knowledge of basic abstractions. The type of work that you study and what type of work that you do is very important to your success in life, as well as how well you will do in the future, all dependent on these basic abstractions.With this you can create new, effective, and, most importantly, coherent, theories and models for studying and understanding pure chemical laws. These will be more efficient than 'novel' theories and models, and as you continue to practice more, you will develop a thorough understanding of how everything works.The best chemistry tutor ever invented would not use any algebra or trigonometry. As we have just discu ssed, this is another example of what I mean. This is not only the best tool in the world for developing the best theories and models, but also the most beneficial to the future of a student.The most important thing that you can learn from the Organic Chemistry Tutor calculus Extreme Value Theorem is that concepts are important. That is because if you want to develop the best tools, then you need to understand what they are.It would take someone with no knowledge of these essential concepts or the tools to completely understand them, to completely analyze them, to even fully comprehend them. This is why I say that the need for theory and model development is paramount. The less concepts and more model development, the better the student will do at doing the thing that they need to do.The fact that the Organic Chemistry Tutor calculus Extreme Value Theorem has a model or theory behind it means that a student will have a concrete understanding of why this is helpful. From that point o n, they will be better equipped to find their own answers, better able to make educated decisions, and even better able to be successful in the future.Now let's look at some applications of the Organic Chemistry Tutor calculus Extreme Value Theorem in the real world. Since everything we do in school revolves around the concepts and models that we develop and use in real life, I hope this has been helpful.
