Listening is a vital link between teacher and student in the learning process. The following explains in detail how young tutors enriched their experience of listening in the context of learning and teaching by drawing a few examples gained from an Economics Network workshop held in Bristol. This network is a resourceful institution where administrators lecturers tutors and researchers are dedicated to promoting effective teaching and learning tools to young lecturers. Being a teaching fellow from University of Bath I enrolled in the free two-day course to learn more about being an effective tutor. This training provided a great opportunity for young tutors to hone their skills actively by listening to other experienced teachers or practitioners and peers. Useful resources and reference materials such as brochures PowerPoint presentations and a memory stick were provided.
