Students are encouraged to listen to the radio

regularly from stations such as 88.5 FM

National Public Radio (NPR) and 103.5 FM

WTOP. Whether listening in your car or on a

computer, the benefits of doing so will be

noticeable. Listening can be coupled with

taking notes to research topics further and to

expand your vocabulary. In class, some

recordings will be used to test students'

listening comprehension skill. As there are

thousands of recorded programs available

online, feel free to focus on a topic of interest.

For those who prefer personal stories to

politics or the economy, give StoryCorps a try.
