Hello. My name is Emma, and in today's lesson, I am going to teach you my top tips for the
0:10
IELTS listening module. Okay?
0:13
So, before I teach you these tips, you might be wondering: "What's the IELTS listening
0:19
module?" Well, the IELTS is a test and one part of the test is listening. So, in the
0:25
listening section, you're going to have 40 questions where you're going to listen to
0:32
some conversations for about 30 minutes, and then you'll have 10 minutes to transfer your
0:39
answers over to another sheet. So, in total, it's 40 minutes; 30 minutes for listening,
0:45
10 minutes for writing down your answers.
0:48
Okay, now this part of the IELTS is very possible to get a high mark, especially if you follow
0:55
my tips. All right? Now, before we get started, I just want to let you know: I know you can
1:01
do the IELTS. I know you can pass, I know you can get a great mark, a great bandwidth
1:06
- you just have to have confidence in yourself and you have to practice. Practice, practice,
1:12
practice; it really pays off. So let's get started.
1:17
So, my first tip: write no more than three words. What do I mean by this? I don't mean
1:25
for the whole thing, write no more than three words. On the IELTS, you will have to read
1:31
the instruction of what to do. Often times, the instruction, before you listen, you're
1:38
going to see: "Write no more than three words." This is an example of an instruction you must
1:44
follow. One mistake a lot of students make during the IELTS is they don't read instructions
1:50
properly. They're nervous, they're stressed out, they write whatever, they don't... They
1:57
don't follow the instructions. If you see something like: "Write no more than three
2:03
words." Do that. You can't write four, don't write five. Write three or less. Okay? So
2:14
my main point here: follow the instructions carefully.
2:20
Point number two: get used to British English. A large part of the IELTS, you will be listening...
2:28
For... For... Sorry, for the listening, you will be listening to British accents. Sometimes
2:33
you might hear Australian accents or Canadian, you might hear a range, but a lot of the accents
2:38
will be British. So it's very important to get used to listening to British accents.
