Learning through listening (British accent)

Listening is one of the most important skills to have in English, but is often ignored. Describe the strategies that you can use to improve your listening skills.

A few months ago, I realised that learning English through listening is very important. I hadn't understood anything before and it was annoying to study through some grammar rules and memorizing of new words. I decided to look for a new approach to study. I started learning through real English materials, such as post cards, stories, audio books or songs. We should listen to English materials for several hours a day. Our brains must get used to listening to English. We should be patient and still keep listening. I really like listening to audio books. I can read a book while I listen to it. Some audio books are divided according to levels and I can listen to easier English. I also listen to my favorite songs. When I know the song, I sing it loudly. I enjoy listening and learning English at the same time.
