Are your students really listening—or just sitting in silos with their headphones on?
In this episode of the Language Bridge Podcast, Dr. Giuseppe Chiaramonte introduces Themed Listening Workouts, a progressive strategy that scaffolds listening practice across beginner, intermediate, and advanced levels while transforming it into a social, interactive experience.
You’ll learn how to:
✅ Move beyond isolated headphone work to whole-class and small-group listening.
✅ Create engaging “listening workouts” that recycle the same topic at different levels.
✅ Incorporate classroom podcast time where students engage in unstructured conversations about what they’ve heard.
✅ Use stories (like a true crime podcast) to spark curiosity, critical thinking, and real communication.
🎧 Tune in to discover how to make listening a community experience in your classroom.
