How to Improve your Listening scores in IELTS

One of the difficulty in answering IELTS Listening is that you have to listen to the audio and answer questions simultaneously. Here are some general tips that will help you out.

  • Use the time you have before the speaker begins, to look at the questions and try to predict what sorts of answers are required. (e.g. Do you need a number, date or a name?)

  • There is no negative marking so you should not leave blanks. Answer all the questions.

  • Try to anticipate what the speaker will say next. This will help you to focus on the answers.

  • Underline key words in the questions to help you when listening.

  • Don't worry if you miss a question while the passage is going on. Answer the next and go back to the one you missed later.

  • Check your spelling and grammar carefully.

  • Be careful to transfer your answers accurately, in the time given at the end of the test to do this.
