1. THREE SUB-PROCESSES
OF LISTENING

2. Reciprocal Listening
 involves dialogues in which the
original listener and speaker have
alternating roles as source and as
receiver of information.

3. Nonreciprocal
Listening
 involves a one-way role taking as in
the case of listening to monologues.

4. Reasons for listening
 Communicating well consists of two parts: expressing yourself and
listening to others.
 Listening can be very challenging. It comes naturally to very few
people , so to improve you must be more intentional.
 There is difference between hearing and listening. Hearing is
simply the process of absorbing sound. Listening is focus
voluntary , and intentional.

5. Listening or Hearing
 Hearing is an accidental and automatic brain response to sound
that requires no effort.
 Listening , on the other hand , is purposeful and focused rather
than accidental.
 Listening , at it’s best , is active , focused , concentrated attention
for purpose of understanding in the meaning , expressed by a
speaker.
 Listening should not be taken for granted.
