This course aims to improve listening skills by providing extensive practice in a wide range of contexts, including both general and more academic listening. Students will engage with a variety of authentic and adapted recordings in order to get accustomed to natural spoken English. Students will learn to listen strategically and effectively; they will also be supplied with background information and engage in pre- and post listening activities. Where appropriate, pronunciation and grammar will be addressed. At the end of the course, students will be better able to engage in independent listening involving registers of English ranging from colloquial to academic.
