today I am going to answer the question how can I sharpen my listening skills very simple first
you need to know what your level is okay based on your level you need to find appropriate material
appropriate resources and then I'm going to tell you what to do okay right now I am on youtube
looking for a channel called unbox therapy one of my favorite channels he is reviewing
tech and technology so first I type in the name of the channel okay Unbox Therapy, you can see
the channel and then there's a filter here right click on that and then try to find subtitles can
you see that cc which means closed caption but this one is subtitled they are the same somehow
okay then you can see a bunch of videos related to him or to his channel okay randomly I open this
so I open the video all you have to do is first to listen okay listen, stop and write again listen
stop and write oh I couldn't understand that go back rewind listen again and write again go back
stop listen write okay you need to keep doing this until you can find the correct sentence as you are
feeling that those sentences are correct once you finish doing it once you finish doing that now
you have a script and you have the material the resources right so then open the CC
and check what you have just written and try to check it and find out the problems and then try
to fix them I know this is very boring extremely boring but it is super super effective okay
keep doing this so this technique is called transcribing what you're basically doing
is you're transferring the audio into a script that is why you are basically transcribing okay
whatever you're hearing you stop the video you stop the audio whatever your resource is and then
you're trying to write it exactly word by word sentence by sentence and once you finish doing it
again as I said earlier go back and check it after doing this for a couple of times maybe for
a couple of months I guarantee that this technique this strategy or method can tremendously help
you to sharpen your listening skills and I hope this video could be the answer for those people
