Hello Megan, It is "listening " not "lestening". Here are several tips to improve your listening skills : -Listen to English music and read the lyrics to the songs. - Read books with lots of dialogues to improve the ability to speak and converse using various expressions and idioms. - Take a short intensive course to strengthen your week points whether grammar,pronunciation or others. - Have English music in the background while doing any other activity. - Watch English language movies with English subtitles or Chinese movies with English subtitles as well. -Use online chats to converse with native English speakers and voice chat as well to practice speaking and listening. -Record your own voice and listen to it using computer pronunciation analysis . - Walk the dog if you have one ,no no that one is irrelevant ;) Just keep practicing and gradually you will sense an improvement in your ability to understand spoken English. You might first notice that you would understand some words in a sentence ,then skipping some sentences in a dialogue until you manage to almost understand it all. It takes time and practice, so don't give up . Good luck:)
