Listening Practice

1. Prediction

try to predict the answer before we hear it: TED Ed site & ‘Listen and Watch’ series

2. Synonyms and Paraphrasing

FluentU

3. Coected Speech

practice this by doing something called ‘micro-listening’. It involves pausing a sentence you don’t understand and replaying it until you have understood all the words: Podbay and apps like Stitcher

4. Recognising Sign Posting Language

The IELTS listening test is very long and it is impossible, even for native speakers, to concentrate fully 100% of the time. Recognising sign posting allows you to prioritise and focus on the important parts of the listening that contain the answers.: First of all…’, ‘Secondly…’, ‘After that…’ and ‘Finally…’. These phrases tell the listener what stage of the talk they are listening to and what they are going to say next.

5. Listening to Two People Talking

6. Note Taking

7. Be an active listener

doing something when you are listening
