proficient listening changes lives
listening is our most basic skill and much more than a mechanical function provided by our ears. while hearing is the passive reception of sound, listening is the active acknowledgement, distinction, and organization of sound information.
effective listeners differentiate between distracting sounds and essential information that needs processing. how we listen to ourselves and others profoundly affects our learning, communication, thoughts, feelings, and relationships.
sound listening corporation (slc) delivers individualized educational applications using enlisten® software and media with special headphones with bone and air conduction. following an assessment of listening strengths and weaknesses, a transformative program of consultation, sound stimulation, and audio-vocal activities is recommended. as part of the emerging field of listening training, enlisten® programs train the ear to better attend to, locate in space, and distinguish between sounds of language, music, and noise. changes in processing translate into changes in academic performance, self esteem, and emotional intelligence. enlisten® takes the lead in the sound listening training field by providing computer based individualized programs and email and phone monitoring.
