Capacity Building training of Government Teachers in Fatehpur August, 2021
Active listening is a valuable technique that requires the listener to thoroughly absorb, understand, respond, and retain what’s being said. While engaging in active listening, the listener may also pay close attention to the speaker’s behaviour and body language to gain a better understanding of their message. It is one of the most important communication skills in today’s time and one of the core skills teachers should possess to get the best out of the class.
