Eliminate distractions
when you eliminate distractions you can focus on the speaker so you can listen don't talk, talking while someone else is talking its very distracting and it doesn't allow you to focus
concentrate on what is being said
when you concentrate you can understand what the speaker message is. if you take notes this helps you understand too
identify ares of confusion
write down questions you don't know don't try to ask it while the speakers is talking because that thought is in the head so you wont be focus on what the speakers is saying. don't interrupt and ask at the appropriate time
dont talk
when you are talking it does not let you focus on the reader and is very disrespectful to the speaker
