The book takes students through the key skills in listening: prediction, identifying important information, recognising rephrasing, hesitation and grammatical errors, and so on. Within each unit there is work on listening skills, a focus on new vocabulary, a short test and ideas for further practice based on BBC World Service broadcasts.
At the end of the course is a listening test similar to those included in the Cambridge First Certificate examination. The book includes full tape transcripts and an answer key.
How to Listen bridges the gap between structured, graded listening courses and the real English of everyday life.
