listening is a process for someone to capture the ongoing conversation. The benefits of listening are very diverse; such as helping in learning, honing feelings of sympathy and empathy, and helping in the communication process. In the learning process, it is usually done when listening to an explanation from a tutor so that we can understand what we are learning. In this learning process, listening is certainly like a necessity.Â
Listening is not only a means needed in the learning process but also needed to understand the feelings of others. This process usually begins when someone complains about something that is bothering them to us (the listener). In this process, our conscience will ask us to give feedback.
Feedback can be in the form of feelings of sympathy or empathy, according to our feelings at that time. The last reason for the benefits of listening that I will discuss is to facilitate communication. When we are involved in the communication process, listening is a process that must exist.Â
With a listener, communication can occur. Listening when communication occurs is very much needed to support so that misunderstandings do not occur. Be a good listener by focusing on listening to the contents of the message conveyed by the speaker. Avoid interruptions that will interfere with the speaker's focus and give feedback when needed. Â when listening maintain eye contact and do not do anything that makes the speaker lose focus so that your listening process is not disturbed. And finally, don't forget to try to practice the listening process.
