Importance of Listening
Good listening is important. Whether you are a student, wife or a parent, how you listen will determine if you get the message that a speaker intended for you. COMM 1004 week 11 Assignment Good listening is a skill. These three roles all require the three basics’ steps of a good listener. Hearing. Hearing means listening enough to catch what the speaker is saying. Understanding. Understanding happens when you take what you have heard and understand it in your own way or words. Judging. Judging is understanding what the speaker has said, think whether it makes sense. No matter what role I am in I value to listen the same. Sometimes each role maybe more challenging for me to be a good listener, but I know that I have a duty to fulfill. That is why my role as a student, wife and parent are important in my life.
