Second Quarter – Module 2
Using Listening Strategies Based
on Purpose
In our everyday lives, one of the many skills that we use is listening. Upon
waking up in the morning, we listen to the sounds of the things around us and to the
songs that we like. We do listen to understand the message of the source but
sometimes, listening difficulties can also cause misunderstanding. Have you
experienced having trouble understanding the message of the person you are talking
to? How about when you listen to some news in the radio or
television?
Listening comprehension can be the
basis for your speaking and writing. You can
be able to write and speak properly, if you

Songs play different roles in our lives. Sometimes, it allows us to express

What is it?
In the previous lesson, you have learned the main styles in reading. You have
learned that as you read, you should know your purpose to identify the most
appropriate reading strategy to be used. While in listening, it is also important to
know several strategies so you can completely understand the entire message and
avoid misunderstanding.
Direction: Read the following questions and try to answer these questions. Write
your answer in your notebook. After the discussion, check if you were able to answer
the questions correctly.
to obtain information;
to understand;
to learn;
to communicate;
to enjoy;
Here are some of the things that you should do while you are listening:
When you are listening to get the main idea, you can possibly get the whole
picture by being able to identify one crucial difference. Information comes in a
sequence and in that sequence, there are content words like nouns, pronouns and
adjectives that can help you form the picture. Therefore, you need to listen more
carefully and attentively to capture the entire message.

You listen to gather specific important details or information. When you listen
to get specific details like names, date, object or place, you do not need to put your
attention to the entire message of the selection that you are listening to. You can
ignore anything that does not sound relevant. This way, you can narrow down your
search and get the detail that you need. You can also select the materials that you
are going to listen when you need the specific details.

Your knowledge in the world helps you anticipate the kind of information you
are likely to hear. When you are listening to a news, you can often predict the kind of
words or language that will be used. Your stock knowledge or any stored information
in the brain can also help us predict the topic of a specific content.
(https://www.britishcouncil.org/voices-magazine/five-essential-listening-skills-english-learners)
When you listen, it is also important to infer the meaning presented by the
speaker using clues and your prior knowledge to work out the meaning of what you
hear. Similarly, you can infer relationship between people from the words they use.
People who have intimate relationships usually use informal language and those
who have work relationships usually use formal language. By using context clues,
you can identify what is being said, who is speaking, and what is taking place.

1. Think about the topic of the text you are going to listen to. What do you
already know about it? What could be possibly the content of the text?

understood the task correctly.
3. Think about what kind of text you are going to listen to.
4. Relax and make yourself ready to pay attention to the listening text.

2. Remember the speculations you made before listening. Did it turn out to be
true?
3. Review your notes.
4. Check whether you have completed your task correctly.

completing your task? Identify your problems and ask someone for help.
