You improve listening by listening. First, begin listening to easier things at slower speeds. First, have a script and follow along as you listen to things. Read what you are listening to first. . Progress to harder things slowly over time as you review and recite what you learn and experience each day. Spend ten hours each day listening to English each day for a year or more. 20% of the time, you can try to repeat what you hear, but focus on listening first because that is what native language babies do for their first five or more years of their lives. . Focus on a kind of English to listen to. I prefer listening to American English. Try different things, methods, games, songs, conversational situations, vocabulary words, tricks, tips, and other things. Experiment and make mistakes each day. Keep journals and logs and save them in as many places as possible, the more the better. . Jot down what doesnt work, what is less effective. We can live and learn. No pain then no gain. If you dont use it you lose it. Practice makes perfect. If you dont write it down, you may forget it.
