The Advantages of Passive Listening

passive listening is where you just put the sound in your ears and listen. This type of listening might be beneficial to you, but there are some big disadvantages. Many studies suggest that passive listening doesn't really help with the acquisition of new words. The second way of listening is what i have called study listening. I've tried this before, and it's worked really well for me. Some people will study for 20 minutes a day on some audio, repeating it and repeating it. And every day they will do another 20 minutes. It may help you get used to the sound of english.
