Mindful Listening Certificate

Mindful Listening

It has never been more important for us to learn how to listen to one another properly than today. In a world with millions of voices, many of them angry and divisive, we need to slow down and truly listen to each other. Mindful listening provides you with the tools to connect deeply and effectively with everyone in your life.

In this course, we begin by going in-depth into mindfulness as a concept and learn the most effective mindfulness techniques, including meditation, body scans and more.

We discuss the important connection between empathy and mindful listening by teaching you how to become more empathetic through tried and tested techniques, as well as how to recognise and avoid the cognitive biases that get in the way of empathy.

Lastly, we cover the most effective, simple and fun mindful exercises to ensure that you become a trusted, selfless and truly mindful listener.

  • How to become mindful through meditative and other highly effective techniques
  • A detailed guide to mindful listening, including the benefits and the conversational and body language techniques
  • A complete guide to empathy, including traits, methods and techniques to develop deep and lasting empathy

Really good course that covered lots of different areas within events planning. I liked that, if there were any questions you got wrong on the tests, you could find out which ones and try again. Lots of case studies to look through too.

I've completed the course and have started to prepare myself as a mobile nail technician.

The online course was easy to understand and the videos were a good way to practice step by step.

Many thanks

To be honest I was sceptical at first. There are many online courses to choose from but what intrigued me the most about this course is the number of modules (22 of them). This appeared to be more detailed than others. The reason I took this course is because I started a new role as a support tutor for a large training company. I already had some experience in working with learners who had special needs and learning difficulties but wanted more in-depth knowledge and tips to support my delivery. I also wanted to know more on the legal of side of SEN too. The course was offered at a large discount that did give me concerns! But I took the plunge and have been pleasantly surprised on how well it's been written and presented in manageable bite-size chunks. I was planning to study about a couple of hours a night but once I started I found it difficult to stop. It took me about 3 days to complete. The information is comprehensive but manageable. You can tell the person/persons who wrote this have a passion for supported learning and give practical strategies to support SEN and care about their sector and want to share their passion. Highly recommended study material. :-)

It was great, lots of knowledge and able to learn at my own pace was fantastic, and that I have access to it after completing exam is great too!

I am excited to start further learning and will likely try another course provided from this website! Exam was easy and straight forward, and provided you with the questions you did not get correct so that you are able to further study.

I have recommended this site to friends and family, and will continue learning! Thank you so much New Skills Academy! You are an amazing site and I am grateful!

Great course, lots of really good information which I could take my time over reading and making notes. I could then understand and learn through the content. It has definitely already helped my teaching and will continue to be a source of reference.

Harriet More

As a teacher I have experienced working with children with a range of learning and physical abilities. This course helped consolidate my knowledge and understanding gained during my 12 years of teaching and working with SEN children. It also added knowledge about the various diagnoses and categories and how to recognise them to support children’s learning.

I found the course easy to navigate, informative and I enjoyed the learning experience. In the future it will help me to think of the children in my care and how best to support their learning needs to achieve the best they can. I hope to someday specialise in working with children with SEN.
