Listening is one of the most important skills you can have. I
listening about VOA Learning English, this is the Education Report in Special
English.
A Vietnamese man hopes to raise the quality of education in his
country by building "parent libraries" in rural schools. Nguyen Quang
Thach provides libraries to the schools so books are more available in farming
communities. He works with publishers in Hanoi to get the books at reduced
rates for teachers and their students. More than 90 percent of
Vietnam's population can read and write. But academic performance in the
schools remains low compared to other Southeast Asian nations. Corruption is a
big part of the problem. Vietnamese media often report stories of teachers
giving high grades in exchange for money.
listening is a skill that we can all benefit from improving. By
becoming a better listener, you will improve your productivity, as well as your
ability to influence, persuade and negotiate. What's more, you'll avoid
conflict and misunderstandings. All of these are necessary for workplace
success!
