IELTS Listening Tips

1. The recording will be played only once. You will not it a second time
- You must practice completing a full listening test by listening only once before
your test. You should do this a number of times.
- When you are developing skill and vocabulary, you might want to practice
listening more than once. This is fine when you are training.
2. You must be able to read the questions, listen for the answer and write down words all
at the same time.
3. Practice transferring your answers to the answer sheet at home before your test.
4. If you don’t know an answer, guess. Always write something in the box on your
answer sheet.
5. Check the number of words you can have for your answer. Each time the question
type changes, the number of words for the answer might change too.
6. Don’t try to understand everything. IELTS will add lots of extra information but you
only need to listen for answers. Keep yourself focused on listening for answers to
question,
7. Answers may come quickly. You might get three answers in very short time. Get
ready to write your answers down quickly. Answers may come slowly
8. Look out for answers which are plural. IELTS know that students have difficulty
hearing the plural “s”. so, these answers will certainly be given to test your listening
ability.
 9. If you miss an answer, just move on to the next question, don’t waste time. Don’t lose
your place in the recording.
10. Concentrate! 30 minutes is long time to actively listen for answers. If you lose focus,
you will miss answers. Don’t let that happen to you. Practice full tests at home to
build up your ability to concentrate.
