The only true way to enhance your English listening skills is to practice listening. You can also practice writing down what you heard to make sure you are catching everything correctly.
Just get your thoughts down first. You should focus on editing grammar and spelling until after the 2nd draft, at least. By then, you usually have everything in the right place, and are happy with the major details. Then you can freely focus on the small things. Doing major and minor edits usually don't mix well. Alwayscheck it at the end!

Communication involves somebody speaking and somebody listening or somebody writing and somebody reading. So a breakdown of either part will make communication ineffective.

Or if you are speaking to somebody but they are not listening then again communication has broken down or is ineffective.

Listening is pointing your nose towards someone and really paying attention to what they are saying by focusing and concentrating. Note taking means writing down everything that is important - this included anything the teacher repeats more than once, that they write down, or that they simply tell you is important.
You should be paying attention to what the teacher is saying and writing on the board, you should be using good listening skills to figure out what information is important enough to write in your notes, and you should be reading the textbook to copy down important headings and terms into your notes.
During the drafting stage of writing a short story, a writer should focus on getting the ideas down on paper without worrying too much about details like grammar or structure. It's important to let creativity flow and not get bogged down by perfectionism. The goal is to get the story written, even if it's rough, so that revisions can be made later.
Yes you do remember more by writing things down because it is another way for you brain to analyse information that just reading or listening to it.
A listening diary is where you listen to a piece of music and write down every thing audible like what instruments are playing, the time signature, the style of music and whether you like it or not. If you are going to write one it is always a good idea to write a bit about the singer or the band. aim for a page and a half of writing. See Related Links for an example of a listening diary.
It is one of the most efficient ways to learn your schoolwork, because you're listening, writing it down, and then re-reading just the basic facts.
