SPEAKING SKILLS

Have a look at this page to find exercises to improve your speaking skills. Remember that  PRACTICE IS THE MOTHER OF KNOWLEDGE. Good luck !

SPEAKING SKILLS

LISTENING SKILLS

Tips for being a good listener

• Give your full attention on the person who is speaking. Don't look out the window or at what else is going on in the room.
• Make sure your mind is focused, too. It can be easy to let your mind wander if you think you know what the person is going to say next, but you might be wrong! If you feel your mind wandering, change the position of your body and try to concentrate on the speaker's words.
• Let the speaker finish before you begin to talk. Speakers appreciate having the chance to say everything they would like to say without being interrupted. When you interrupt, it looks like you aren't listening, even if you really are.
• Let yourself finish listening before you begin to speak! You can't really listen if you are busy thinking about what you want say next.
• Listen for main ideas. The main ideas are the most important points the speaker wants to get across. They may be mentioned at the start or end of a talk, and repeated a number of times. Pay special attention to statements that begin with phrases such as "My point is..." or "The thing to remember is..."
• Ask questions. If you are not sure you understand what the speaker has said, just ask. It is a good idea to repeat in your own words what the speaker said so that you can be sure your understanding is correct. For example, you might say, "When you said that no two zebras are alike, did you mean that the stripes are different on each one?"
• Give feedback. Sit up straight and look directly at the speaker. Now and then, nod to show that you understand. At appropriate points you may also smile, frown, laugh, or be silent. These are all ways to let the speaker know that you are really listening. Remember, you listen with your face as well as your ears!

Thinking fast

Remember: time is on your side! Thoughts move about four times as fast as speech. With practice, while you are listening you will also be able to think about what you are hearing, really understand it, and give feedback to the speaker.

TABLAS DE DAIMIEL

El parque nacional de Las Tablas de Daimiel es un parque nacional español que protege el humedal homónimo, lasTablas de Daimiel. El parque nacional se encuentra situado en los términos de Daimiel y Villarrubia de los Ojos, en laprovincia de Ciudad Real, en la comunidad autónoma de Castilla-La Mancha. Es además ZEPA y parte de la Reserva de la Biosfera La Mancha Húmeda.

Las Tablas son uno de los últimos representantes de un ecosistema denominado tablas fluviales que se forman al desbordarse los ríos en sus tramos medios, favorecidos por fenómenos de semiendorreísmo y la escasez de pendientes. El humedal se forma en la confluencia del río Guadiana y su afluente Gigüela y es uno de los ecosistemas acuáticos más importantes de laPenínsula Ibérica por la variedad y calidad de la fauna y flora que habitan en ella, así como por aquellas aves que la emplean en los pasos migratorios.
