Listening training helps learners retrain their brains to process English by rebuilding listening logic—starting with overall meaning before moving toward word-level understanding. The training follows three stages: Mindset Reset → Auditory Awareness → Application. Materials include YouTube videos, TOEIC audio, and authentic recordings from NCHU international students. Weekly shadowing practice is assigned. Speaking training focuses on thinking and speaking in chunks rather than word-by-word sentence construction. Students learn how to extract natural chunks from native-speaker materials and practice them until internalized. Guided turn-taking dialogue practice, based on a newly developed OIA handbook, is used to reduce speaking anxiety and build confidence.
Week 1 • Course overview: cloud drive materials, class format, and ice-breaking activities • Listening: Training learners to hear meaningful chunks, rhythm, and stress instead of focusing on word-by-word comprehension; introduction to shadowing techniques • Speaking: Understanding chunks, using them as the basis for speaking practice, and practicing turn-taking dialogues
Week 2 • Listening: Meaning tracking (30-second summaries), dictation races, and continued shadowing practice • Speaking: Expanding chunk usage and practicing turn-taking dialogues
Week 3 • Review of student recordings • Listening: Post-listening output, recognizing reduced forms and natural speech flow, with continued shadowing practice • Speaking: Further chunk development and turn-taking dialogue practice

Course Content:
The Basic English Listening and Speaking Enhancement Course is divided into Classes A and B, each lasting three weeks with identical content. Each weekly two-hour session is skills-oriented, focusing on listening and speaking, and includes various small tasks. The first hour, dedicated to listening, uses recordings from native speakers to train participants to catch every word. It introduces three intonation patterns and ten intonation rules. TPO (Tone, Pitch, and Overstress) intonation imitation helps participants recognize the natural highs and lows of English, enabling them to shadow authentic native speaker intonation. The speaking component trains participants in three skills: avoiding written language, breaking long sentences into shorter ones, and conveying meaning rather than literal words. This enables participants to express themselves in English using only junior high-level vocabulary and grammar, supplemented by versatile response phrases.
Course Schedule:
Week 1 Introduction to cloud-based class format and icebreaker Listening: Nationality recording analysis (Latin America); three intonation patterns; TPO intonation imitation Speaking: How to avoid written language; small tasks; versatile response phrases
Week 2 Review of participant recordings Listening: Nationality recording analysis (Africa); ten intonation rules; TPO intonation imitation Speaking: How to break long sentences into shorter ones; small tasks; versatile response phrases
Week 3 Review of participant recordings Listening: Nationality recording analysis (India); review of intonation patterns and rules; TPO intonation imitation Speaking: How to convey meaning rather than literal words; small tasks; versatile response phrases
