focusing on specific sounds
As you wear your
instruments in a
wider variety of
sound environ-
ments, practice
selecting specific
sounds and voices and focus
your attention on them.
Enhance your understand-
ing by following nonverbal
expressions and gestures.
As you venture into familiar
public places such as places
of worship and meetings, sit
reasonably close and with-
in easy visual distance of
those speaking.
Because every area
has its own sound
characteristics, you
may need to try
different locations
for the best results.
