I got a band 9 in IELTS Listening twice.
2
To score high in IELTS Listening, you must have a listening strategy.
3
You must know how to find the correct answers.
4
And this is what you will learn in this video.
5
I will give you 11 top tips that I use to score a band 9 in IELTS Listening twice.
6
By the end of this video, you will know how to use these tips to boost your score.
7
If you are going to take your IELTS soon, check out my IELTS materials.
8
There, I teach you everything you need to score high.
9
I show you step by step how to give high scoring answers.
10
And of course, we do many practice tests together, so you will feel confident about your test.
11
You can find the link in the description below.
12
And now, let's get started.
13
Tip number one is read the questions before the listening starts.
14
I always do this when taking the IELTS listening test.
15
Why?
16
Why?
17
Because if you read the questions, you know what you need to listen for, and this makes it a lot easier to find the correct answers.
18
In IELTS listening, you get 30 to 40 seconds to look at the questions before each section.
19
This doesn't seem like much time,
20
but there is a lot you can do in these 40 seconds to help you prepare for the audio to come.
21
First of all, read the questions carefully.
22
Make sure you understand what is being asked so you know what you need to focus on.
23
Second, underline important keywords such as names, dates, numbers, and verbs to focus on while you're listening.
24
Here are some examples of keywords.
25
Names such as Professor Drim, Julie, Mr. Kim, dates and times like June 14 at 10 .30pm,
26
numbers For example, 25%, 250 sales, verbs such as decide, stop, increase.
27
Listen for these keywords and try to understand the information provided alongside these keywords.
28
This will make it easier to find the correct answers.
29
Tip number two is pay attention to distractors.
30
What are distractors?
31
A distractor is information in the audio that makes you think it's the correct answer, but actually isn't.
32
This could be because the speakers use similar sounding words or mention some parts of the answer, but not all of them.
33
For example, if you get a multiple choice question, all options may be mentioned in the audio, but only one of them is correct.
34
Let's take a look at the question.
35
Now listen to the audio.
36
At first I considered taking business studies, but then I thought accounting might be more useful.
37
However, I finally decided to go with economics.
38
Notice that here all three options are mentioned in the audio.
39
When this occurs, the first option is often wrong.
40
Make sure you wait until you hear the speaker's final decision or conclusion.
41
Another common distractor is when a speaker gives his answer, then changes it.
42
This is also referred to as self -correction.
43
Here's a question.
44
Now, let's listen to an example.
45
The meeting will be at 3 p .m.
46
Oh, actually, sorry, it's been moved to 4 .30 p .m.
47
As you can hear, the speaker mentions two different times.
48
The incorrect time comes first.
49
Then the speaker corrects himself and mentions the correct time.
50
The correct answer is 4 .30 p .m., not 3 p .m.
51
Spelling and grammar are crucial in the IELTS listening test because even a small mistake means a wrong answer.
52
There are no half or partial points.
53
If your spelling or grammar is incorrect, you won't be awarded the mark.
54
In particular, there are three words that IELTS students often don't spell correctly.
55
In the following, I will say these three words and you have to tell me how they're written.
56
I will say each word twice.
57
After that, you have five seconds to think about how the word is written.
58
Then you have five seconds to write the word in the comments.
59
Let's get started.
60
How do you write this word?
61
Accommodation accommodation.
62
Let's continue with the next word business, business.
63
The third word is necessary.
64
Necessary.
65
Now, let's take a look at the correct answers.
66
Accommodation is written like this.
67
It has two
68
Cs and two Ns.
69
A common mistake is writing it with only one C.
70
Business is spelled with two S at the end and one S in the middle.
71
Necessary is written with one C and two S.
72
Don't confuse the two.
73
Also, remember that capitalization is important in English spelling too.
74
Proper nouns such as names of people, cities, countries, and so on must start with a capital letter.
75
If you don't capitalize correctly, the answer is wrong.
76
By the way, if you want more IELTS listening videos, click the like button and write yes in the comments.
77
If you want something else, tell me your video wish in the comments so I know what you want to see on this channel.
78
Now, let's take a look at eight more tips you can use to get a higher IELTS listening score.
79
Next, predicting answers is one of the best things you can do in the IELTS listening exam.
80
This is because it saves time you know what to listen for in advance.
81
Also, you are more likely to recognize the correct word or phrase.
82
Let's take a look at how you can predict answers for sentence completion questions.
83
Based on the sentence structure, you can guess what kind of answer is expected before the recording begins.
84
For example, the new library will open in.
85
The answer is likely a year or a month.
86
John's phone number is.
87
The answer is likely a series of numbers.
88
You can also think about the grammar in the sentence and gap.
89
For instance, is it a noun, verb, adjective, or adverb?
90
Does it require a singular or plural word?
91
If it's a verb, it's likely to be in the infinitive form or maybe in the past participle.
92
When predicting, you can also consider synonyms of the words in the questions that you might hear in the audio.
93
The IELTS listening test rarely uses the exact same words from the question in the audio.
94
Let's see an example of that.
95
The company is planning to reduce its workforce by percent this year.
96
You can predict that the answer will be a percentage.
97
You might hear decrease or cut instead of reduce.
98
You might also hear staff or employees instead of workforce.
99
Now you know that you have to listen for these synonyms.
100
This will make it much easier for you to find the correct answers.
101
Now comes a super important point.
102
If you know it before taking your listening test, you can prepare for it.
103
But many IELTS students don't and then they lose points.
104
What am I talking about?
105
Listen out for connected words.
106
In IELTS listening and in real life, speakers don't always pronounce words separately.
107
They often use connected speech.
108
This means that words blend together as if they're one single word.
109
If you're not familiar with this, you might miss key information.
110
So it's important to train your ear and get used to connected words.
111
You will now listen to three recordings.
112
Each recording will be played twice.
113
After each recording you will have five seconds to think about what the speaker said.
114
When the time is up write in the comments what the speaker said.
115
You have five seconds to do this.
116
Let's get started.
117
I have to go.
118
I have to go.
119
Give me it
120
Give me it
121
What do you think?
122
What do you think?
123
Now, let's check out what the speaker said.
124
The first speaker said, I have to go, which means I have to go.
125
The second speaker said, give me it, which means give me it.
126
The third speaker said, what do you think, which means what do you think?
127
Here you can see that you need to listen carefully to understand connected speech and IELTS listening.
128
Tip number six is write as you listen.
129
One of the most crucial skills in IELTS listening is the ability to write answers as you're listening.
130
Since the recording is played only once, it's not a good idea to wait.
131
You must write down answers immediately as you hear them because you won't get a second chance.
132
Doing this also saves time during the answer transfer stage.
133
You won't have to remember details later when writing your answers on the answer sheet.
134
It can also make forgetting key details less likely.
135
However, writing as you listen can be tricky, especially if the information is said quickly or contains distractors.
136
Sometimes you may not have time to write out the entire word.
137
One way of writing faster as you're listening is to use abbreviations.
138
For example, here you can see some abbreviations of common words that you can use.
139
Let's have a look at how you might make quick notes while listening using abbreviations.
140
The government is focusing on reducing carbon dioxide emissions by 20 % by 2030.
141
As you can see here, symbols such as arrows can also be helpful when writing quick notes as you're listening.
142
One important thing to remember about using abbreviations is that you need to understand them.
143
Make sure you practice using them before the exam.
144
Don't attempt them for the first time on the day of the exam.
145
Choose abbreviations and symbols that make sense to you and are easily understood when you go back to review them.
146
My next tip is to move on quickly.
147
If you miss an answer.
148
Move on quickly to avoid losing focus.
149
The IELTS listening exam can be nerve -wracking for many, and it's important to keep calm if you feel that you've missed something.
150
Some IELTS test takers panic when this happens.
151
The problem is that they lose the opportunity to answer the questions
152
that follow because they are too worried about what they've missed.
153
Try not to panic.
154
Instead, take a deep breath and focus on the next question.
155
Tip number eight is listen out for clues.
156
Sometimes in IELTS listening the speaker will give you a clue which tells you he's about to give the answer.
157
If you start to recognize these clues you will be able to find the answer more easily.
158
Let's see some common clues that tell you an answer is coming.
159
Let me repeat that.
160
This means an important detail will follow.
161
To be more specific this tells you an explanation of key information is coming.
162
One important thing to remember is this emphasizes that something crucial will be mentioned.
163
Make sure you listen for such clues in your IELTS listening test because this will help you figure out the correct answer.
164
Sometimes you may not hear the answer clearly or miss a detail.
165
Instead of leaving the space blank, write your best guess based on what you heard.
166
For example, if you know the answer is a name, but you are not sure of the spelling, write something close.
167
If you heard a number but aren't sure, write it down and go back to it later.
168
You do get time to check and transfer answers, so it's always better to write something down and fix it later on if you need to.
169
Next, make sure you understand the question types.
170
As with all parts of the IELTS exam, it's really important that you understand the format of each question type
171
because this will allow you to be able to answer the question properly.
172
If you're familiar with the test format, you won't waste time figuring things out during the test.
173
Let's take a look at common question types in IELTS listening.
174
Multiple choice questions appear frequently on the test.
175
You're given a question with three or four answer choices, A, B, C, or D.
176
The speaker will likely mention all options, but only one is correct.
177
Next, there are form, note, table, and flowchart completion questions.
178
You need to fill in missing words in a form, table, or notes.
179
Answers are often dates, names, places, numbers, or short phrases.
180
Additionally, you will often see sentence completion questions.
181
You must complete a sentence with a missing word or phrase.
182
The missing word will usually be a key detail from the audio.
183
Map, diagram or plan labeling questions are also quite common.
184
You must label a map, diagram or plan with missing words or numbers.
185
The speaker will describe locations or directions.
186
My final tip is to be prepared to hear different accents.
187
In IELTS listening, there are often a range of accents in the audios, such as variations of British, American, and Australian accents.
188
It's wise to start getting used to hearing different accents from various countries.
189
You can do this by doing more practice tests, but it's also useful to train your ear by listening to podcasts,
190
news, reports, movies, and speeches from different countries and different speakers.
191
Don't forget that each English -speaking country has a wide range of accents.
192
So don't just focus on a general American or received pronunciation, so British accent.
193
When learning a language, most of us have a preference when it comes to the variety or accent we prefer to study.
194
But for the purpose of the IELTS Listening exam, It's vital to increase your exposure to all types of accents.
195
That's it.
196
That's 11 tips to score high in IELTS listening.

Grammatik in diesem Video
Die Strukturen, die der Sprecher am häufigsten verwendet, mit den genauen Worten aus dem Video:
| Struktur | Im Video |
|---|---|
| Passiv be + Partizip Perfekt – wichtig ist, was geschieht, nicht wer es tut | is read · being asked · may be mentioned |
| Present Perfect have/has + Partizip Perfekt – eine vergangene Handlung, die jetzt noch wichtig ist | it's been moved · you've missed · they've missed |
Aussprache, auf die du achten solltest
Der Sprecher verwendet 28 Kurzformen und abgeschwächte Formen, zum Beispiel don't, you're, won't. Sprich sie in der kurzen Form, so wie du sie hörst.
- Die Laute „sh“ und „zh“: examination /ɪɡˌzæm.ɪˈneɪ.ʃən/, crucial /ˈkɹuː.ʃəl/, completion /kəmˈpliː.ʃən/, accommodation /əˌkɒm.əˈdeɪ.ʃən/, explanation /ˌɛkspləˈneɪʃən/

Laute, die Deutschsprachigen schwerfallen:
- /w/ — mit runden Lippen, nicht wie das deutsche „w“ (/v/): workforce /ˈwɝk.foɹs/, keyword /ˈkiː.wɜːd/
- Stimmhafter Auslaut — /b/, /d/, /g/, /z/, /v/ am Wortende nicht verhärten: phrase /ˈfɹeɪ̯z/, verb /vɝb/, bind /ˈbaɪ̯nd/, percentage /pə(ɹ)ˈsɛntɪd͡ʒ/, alongside /əˌlɔŋˈsaɪd/
- /æ/ — offener als „ä“: accent /ækˈsɛnt/, examination /ɪɡˌzæm.ɪˈneɪ.ʃən/, grammar /ˈɡɹæm.ə(ɹ)/, format /ˈfɔːɹ.mæt/, panic /ˈpænɪk/
So übst du mit diesem Video
- Höre dir das ganze Video einmal an, ohne zu sprechen, und notiere die Wörter, die du nicht kennst.
- Sprich Satz für Satz in normaler Geschwindigkeit nach und wiederhole jeden, bis dein Rhythmus zum Sprecher passt.
- Nimm dich auf und vergleiche mit dem Original; achte dabei auf Wörter wie audio, accent, examination.
Was ist die Shadowing-Technik?
Shadowing ist eine wissenschaftlich fundierte Sprachlerntechnik, die ursprünglich für die professionelle Dolmetscherausbildung entwickelt und durch den Polyglotten Dr. Alexander Arguelles populär gemacht wurde. Die Methode ist einfach aber wirkungsvoll: Du hörst englisches Audio von Muttersprachlern und wiederholst es sofort laut — wie ein Schatten, der dem Sprecher mit nur 1–2 Sekunden Verzögerung folgt. Anders als passives Hören oder Grammatikübungen zwingt Shadowing dein Gehirn und deine Mundmuskulatur, gleichzeitig echte Sprachmuster zu verarbeiten und zu reproduzieren. Studien zeigen, dass es Aussprachegenauigkeit, Intonation, Rhythmus, verbundene Sprache, Hörverständnis und Sprechflüssigkeit signifikant verbessert — was es zu einer der effektivsten Methoden für die IELTS Speaking-Vorbereitung und reale englische Kommunikation macht.
