how do i show someone im listening to them

1. I think a good way to start it’s to just show interest in the conversation – for example, nodding your head to show your keeping up, making slight face expressions as to react to what they’re saying, sometimes add to things they’re saying with simple comments like :”oh my god”, “that sounds terrible”, “i can’t belive she said that”, etc. Hope it helps 🙂

2. Eye contact is one way to show that you’re listening.

3. I’ve learned to ask questions and restate things people say

4. Some eye contact, asking questions that indicate you were listening intently.

5. By using cues like occasional eye contact, head nodding, making noises like “mhmm” and using words like “right”, “I see”, “yes”.
