For this lesson with Father John we worked on his listening skills. This was to continue to help with his conversational and communication ability.
In this lesson I made more of a conscious effort to modify my speech and use high frequency vocabulary. I found some very interesting YouTube videos about how to modify your speech and watched these because I felt that I might be speaking too fast and that's were the problem was.
I read several articles about how best to change your speaking patterns so that you can be more clearly understood. One of the trickiest parts of this for me was not just slowing down but also removing certain speech patters for my speech.
This really helped in our conversation practice and allowed me to be much better understood then had been in the past.
