IELTS Listening Practice

Here is a set of ten practice activities specifically designed to help learners prepare for part four of the IELTS listening test, which is the most difficult part.

These activities are designed as a stepping stone to the last part of the IELTS listening test, so they are a little shorter and a little easier than the actual test - perfect for learners who are struggling.

Each one features a three-minute academic talk with six multiple choice questions. As in the actual test, they are in the same order that you hear the answers. Each one also comes with an accompanying transcript.

Updated Business English Listening

 As a current project, I am updating some of the content on the site using AI tools. One of the updated pages is the Business English Listening activities. 

They now look more professional and should be easier to use. As before, each one has a short listening activity with questions, script and language notes.

To continue the series of context exercises on Road to Grammar, here is a listening context activity.

Listen Up! features 100 vocabulary items with three audio clips for each one. The user listens to the audio clips and guesses the meaning of the vocabulary item from the context.

This activity sharpens your listening skills, study skills and vocabulary repertoire. It is most suitable for CEFR B1-B2 levels.
