Course programme

The course covers coping with conversations in difficult listening situations. Topics will be geared towards the group’s suggested needs, and are likely to include conversation in background noise, conversation at restaurants and at the dinner table, watching TV, using the telephone, communicating with people you find hard to understand.

Sessions are structured so that the class members can discuss and focus on their particular communication issues and needs. The aim is for participants to look at the problems and come up with solutions to try out, under the guidance of the tutor. In class there will be group work, pair work and tutor explanation.
