- Hi, welcome to part two of the "Why Series."

If you remember part one was called, "Why Read."

Past simple

And I talked about why reading was important

when you are learning the English language.

And I talked a lot about why reading was cool.

where I'm going to talk about why you should listen,

why listening practice is an important thing to do

I'll talk about cool things about listening,

while listening to English to improve your English,

and why listening is just an important thing to do

Before we get started though, if you are new here,

don't forget to click that red subscribe button below

and give me a thumbs up, if this video helps you learn

Well, one of the cool things about listening

I mean, compared to reading or writing or speaking,

you do have to put earbuds in or put headphones on,

when you are learning English, it's really simple.

You literally just sit there and allow music,

So, of all the things you can do to learn English,

probably the coolest thing about listening is

The second thing that's cool about listening

and also a tip for when you're doing your listening is

Especially music, music in particular is the one thing where

it's really easy to listen to a song multiple times.

It's really hard to read something twice.

I do recommend that it's hard to have a conversation twice

because people usually don't want to talk about something

that's just really awesome is that there is so much variety,

there are so many things you can choose from.

When you listen, you can listen to music,

you can listen to podcasts, you can listen to audio books,

There are many, many things that you can choose from

when you're doing your listening practice.

intellectual thoughts, you could listen to a podcast.

If you just wanna relax, you can listen to some music.

If you wanna dance, you can listen to some music.

And if you just want to kind of listen to the audio version

of a book that you already read, you can do that as well.

there are just so many options, there is so much variety

in terms of the things you can listen to,

Another thing that's really awesome about listening is that

it's a great partner for practicing your speaking

You can listen to it to hear how the native speaker

and then you can try to mimic those words

So listening is a great partner for your speaking practice.

The technique is called shadowing by the way,

and then you try to say what they've said,

So you play the video or you play the audio,

you hit pause, and then you say it out loud,

it's a great way to practice your pronunciation.

One of my favorite things about listening practice

You can pause whatever you're listening to,

So if you hear something and you didn't understand it,

And the most powerful thing I think about listening is that

If you are someone who listens to podcasts,
