- Professor Tony Lynch, Personal Chair of Student Learning (English for Academic Purposes), presented his inaugural lecture entitled "The Importance of Listening to International Students".
The title is intentionally ambiguous. It refers firstly to the importance for international students of having adequate comprehension of spoken English; and it also alludes to the importance for the University of taking account of international students' perceptions of studying at Edinburgh.
In the lecture, Prof Lynch addresses both these issues. In the first part he draws on his research into the experience of second language listeners, in order to outline the processes underlying comprehension, the problems likely to arise, and possible solutions to those difficulties.
In the second part he discuss postgraduates' responses to an ELTC (English Language Teaching Centre) survey on linguistic and cultural aspects of studying at Edinburgh. He argues that relatively minor adjustments by and for international students would help smooth their path to academic success.

Watching you from Iraq. Hope I can study at university but I can't. My country has many problems and thieves and they don't need us to be good human . I won't give up to teach myself how to speak English to get science.
Thanks a million for you and your followers and hope you get my words cause I'm an Arabic man .
I hope you well in your academic pursuit my brother!
Thank you , I appreciate that
Dont give up, one man can change a country
I hope that ...thanks a lot
I wish, I could speak Arabic. In Sha’ Allah one day that dream will come true
Thanks so much Professor Tony Lynch for all those many good tips you have give to us for teach in the better way, you have also a great sense of humor.
I am very fond of speaking English, so I keep reading English books and remember those of them, it has made my English a little better.
Wow bro.
I'm also angry english spoken
I have been missing this kind of lecture condition since the pandemic stopped all classical teaching-learning activities instead of internet. We are lucky to watch and listen to the Professor.
This lecture is very informative. I am thinking workingholiday in England. Since I am not an English-seaking notion people, I have long been experienced communicating by English. I want to study English hard, and communicate with English-use people influently.
I am sure that you are doing well :3 Als long as you work hard, you can do it
Astute, humorous and informative. "The importance of Listening to International Students". Dialects and cultures do separate people at times (that was an under estimation of the fact by the way). "Practice Listening" in a relaxed atmosphere with others alleviates the formal aspect of linguistics and possibly bring about a better understanding between one another. Yet, I still cannot help but wonder why we are introducing acronyms into a language that we are already having a difficult time understanding. Strikes me as, adding a log to a fire that is already burning out of control.
Awesome lecture Prof. Lynch
What I don’t understand is why non-native speakers of English are much more fluent AT English than native speakers of English lmao. Like people who are so good at English grammar, writing, etc are really bad at speaking like damn
THANKS FOR YOUR TEACHINGS PROFESSOR TONY LYNCH. GOD BLESS YOU SO MUCH. BLESSINGS FROM PERU. I WILL KEEP STUDYING YOUR LECTURES, THANKS AGAIN.

The visual information information isn't provided.
It's only my point of view, I believe that if you want to follow a lecture at university, you need to be able to understand advertising on tv. That's why two of the main skills to improve are not only listening and vocaburaly but also your speed of comprehension.
It may happend that the same information when it is being transmited faster it will be more difficult to be understood, which leads to frecuent breakdowns of comunacation.
My weakness is speed to understand.
Thangs alot
I think if all the words of sentense
are already stocked in your long-term memory ,you will automatically understand the sentense in a quick
rhythme.
I want learn english a am understanding many word but my heart is Very fear from somalia thank you professor again bye
You're GR8
Lovely
Hmn that is really good for new members
Nice
"It's great, I wish my school was open too. I wish to become a good doctor in the future of my country. If you can help us in any way, please help. May God bless you. I am from Afghanistan.
What is the name of the moderator??
The importance of communication. We can't read the screen so have no idea what he is referring to. "Here's what my Chinese student said" ...audience laughs, we see Mr Lynch .. ? I suppose we can use our imagination. Not very professional is it ?

Thank by knowing about you and your performance provided from Iraq. I know Iraq turned down by war between Saddam and bush and tony blear. Between Saddam and Bush-Blear, the war between them Iraq destroyed including it culture and educational foundation of Iraq. Even now, war has been continuing in Iraq and until close this war Iraq could not advance ahead into it cultural and religious rituals and technology and engineering.
Do not blame the West. Your society is backward, mired in labyrinths of ignorance. You have a society, most of which are afflicted with a mental illness called (Shi’a Ahl al-Bayt), with the rest of the myths and superstitions that society consumes and pollutes children and youth with day and night. If you find a cure for these mentally afflicted and polluted peoples. It is possible to leave Iraq in the time of bygone centuries and catch up with the world.
