Help a student improve their listening skills

Most students are taught how to read, write, and speak. But very few are taught how to listen effectively.

Good listening helps students understand instructions, remember important information, take better notes, and communicate confidently with others.

You can help a student build this important life skill. We will connect you with a college student.

You will guide them through simple activities and phone call conversations that help them become better listeners.

You will do 13 simple phone call sessions in 20 days. Each session is 45 minutes long.

Note: We will conduct an online orientation and share the handbook with all session topics.
