When teaching listening comprehension, it is key to connect how listening to a speaker relates to reading text: listen for key words, themes, notes, names, dates, as well as any vocabulary or subject that the listener may find difficult/problematic.
I like to practice with students in small groups, often with very short films or short articles/stories read aloud; I then encourage students to take notes and jot down any words, subjects, or themes that "pop out" during the listening. These sessions are usually quite informal to ease students into relaxing, allowing the words heard to become words SEEN. After exercises such as that, I gradually move to more intensive sessions, which usually allows students to become less tense when under pressure to soak in data/information from a lecture or speaker.
If necessary, spoken basics such as introductions, theses, synopses, and references may be reexamined to ensure students can recognize those while listening to a spoken presentation.

Ms. Spann was a college professor of mine for 2 separate courses. She managed to keep me interested in a college subject that I detested all through high school. She is one of the most understanding and accommodating people I have ever met in my life. She is an amazing person with a unique personality that firmly grasps the attention of her students. I am eternally grateful for the chance to be one of her students.
As her professor in various upper division college writing courses, I've observed Anna contribute to many intensive critique sessions. She always tactfully approached the assessment of the work of her peers with unusual insight and with generosity towards their work. She was able to articulate complex ideas with clarity and precision. Anna is one of the brightest students I've taught in a long career, and I'm certain of her abilities as a teacher and tutor. I recommend her without reservation. She's funny, smart, cool, kind and humble.
Anna is a brilliant, talented, inspiring wordsmith. Her wit and compassion make her an outstanding teacher, tutor, and friend. You won't be disappointed.
Creative, dedicated, and super smart! Anna and I have known each other for over fifteen years. We have been friends and classmates. She has also helped me edit a number of papers. I know Anna is a capable and trustworthy teacher; in addition to her skills in writing and grammar, she is a good listener, and creative enough to communicate ideas in ways that are easy to understand.
