POOR LISTENING STYLES

Arianna N. Torres

SPACING OUT• When someone is talking to you and in a whole other galaxy wondering

of.

PRETEND LISTENING• When you act like your listening and go along saying yeah, uh

huh, cool, sounds great.

SELECTIVE LISTENING• When your paying attention to the thing you want to hear and ignore else

that the other person is saying.

WORD LISTENING• When your listening to someone’s words but your not seeing their body

language.

SELF- CENTERED LISTENING• Judging- When your judging others in your mind that you don’t hear them

anymore.• Advising- When people and family give advice based on there own

experiences.• Probing- When people want to get you to talk about your emotions but

your not ready.
