Ok, here I am telling you some best preparation tips for International English Language Testing System IELTS Listening Test.

IELTS Listening Test preparation tips

Try and anticipate what the speaker will say; this will require concentration

You will have to practice listening to both one person speaking (a monologue) and more than one person speaking at the same time.

Be careful with your spelling. Lots of easy marks are thrown away because of poor spelling.

Keep a notebook of words you find difficult to spell.

Read the questions before you listen so that you know what you are listening for.

You should also try and have an idea of what kind of information you are listening out for.

If you do not know the answer to a question, attempt it but do not waste time; move quickly onto the next one

Be careful with your spelling and grammar

Focus precisely on what you are asked to do in completion type questions

Be careful with capital letters. If your word is someone’s name or a place, then it must have a capital letter to be correct.

It is important to familiarise yourself with the different types of test questions and practice IELTS past papers.
