The Challenge of Teaching Listening Skills

 http://esl.about.com/cs/teachinglistening/a/a_tlisten.htm

The key to helping students improve their listening skills is to convince them that not understanding is OK. This is more of an attitude adjustment than anything else, and it is easier for some students to accept than others. Another important point that I try to teach my students (with differing amounts of success) is that they need to listen to English as often as possible, but for short periods of time.
