SPEAKING · TECHNIQUE GUIDE
Retell Lecture
Listen for the topic, relationships, examples and conclusion rather than transcribing.
What to look for
- Main topic
- Repeated keywords
- Cause/effect, contrast and examples
- Speaker’s concluding point
Decision process
- Note keywords, not full sentences
- Group notes by idea
- Reconstruct the lecture around the main relationship
- Keep delivery continuous
Common traps
- Trying to write everything
- Reading fragmented notes word-by-word
- Losing the main topic while chasing details
Apply it
Topic + key point 1 + relationship/example + key point 2 + conclusion.
Now try it on your own sentence.
