In the preparation for TOEFL listening, we often mention taking notes in TOEFL listening, and many students will try to use notes to ensure the accuracy of their listening content. But in the process of taking notes, we will find that many times, it is difficult to grasp the key points of the content. After listening, you will find that your listening notes are not very helpful. So, how should TOEFL listening notes be recorded? The following content, we will analyze it in detail for everyone.
Please note that everyone's memory, thinking and reaction ability have their own characteristics, so we must develop our own way of taking notes and formulate our own methods in daily practice. For example, the simpler the notes, the faster the recording speed, but the short-term memory, association ability and symbol application are relatively improved. Therefore, candidates often ask "how to take notes?" The answer to "What should I write down" varies from person to person. TOEFL candidates need a lot of practice to explore their own routines.
TOEFL Note Tip 1: Write less and draw more.
Drawing straight lines and arrows is always much faster than writing letters and Chinese characters, which is vivid and equivalent to the "semi-finished product" of notes. It helps us to quickly associate what we have just heard after listening and doing the questions. We can read our own notes while reading oral English.
