How do you know if an English speaker is listening to you? Really listening?
Your ideas, stories, and opinions are important. In this lesson, you’ll know the signals English speakers use to show they are listening.
The lesson is longer than usual but necessary because you’ll learn:
– Why listening is a powerful, generous gift
– How active listening can benefit you
– How to know when English speakers are listening
– What signals you can use to show you’re listening to others
– What to say when someone isn’t listening to you (but they should be)
At Speak Confident English, we are ALL about helping you speak AND communicate with confidence.
Fun, easy, and clear communication means strong listening skills are a must.

Hello, I recently discovered you. I'm at level B1 and I can say you're easy to understand, with a comfortable speed. This lesson is very interesting, so I subscribe to your channel. About the body language, I use it especially when it's important, when I want to give a real impact, that makes a change with a normal conversation.
Think Positive English says
Very interesting video, thanks! I am working with an Italian student (C2 level) and this topic has come up in her lessons. I think the cultural differences are very important here; in Italian, apparently they do not use so many verbal supporting sounds as we do in English. In fact, my student told me that she finds it disconcerting when I say 'mmm' as I am listening to her! Will definitely be showing her this video!
