Hi sir

....you can not believe how much i really appreciated that

because i have just decided to do ielts and i feel what you mentioned here

listening is not just listening ... it involves reading and writing in undirected way ...so that which makes the listening part seem approximately the hardest section for almost of the candidates .... any way

you have to know that i will be visitor for this video regularly

thank you so much

dcielts.com is a great website for preparing for IELTS exam. Dominic's tips for listening section were very useful esp to listen, read and write at the same time. This is something that is developed with practice. I listened to a lot of listening exercises (links available on dcielts.com) and it helped.

Also, I was looking at 2 questions at a time and had an idea of what was coming which is very important to not lose track. I scored 8.5 in listening section and overall score of 8. Thanks!

thanks a lot! My Academic IELTS exam is only 5 days away and I am terribly scared

[fcjkappel]

@contism

And how did it go?

[contism]

@fcjkappel I'll let you know soon...I'm supposed to receive my results in a week

[fcjkappel]

@contism oke thanks mate, i just finished the ielts intensive course because i have to make an academic exam and past it with at least a 6.5 score.. really high in my opinion...

[contism]

@fcjkappel Well achieving a 6.5 in the academic section is no game...you know I did my exam last saturday and they didn't give us any headphones during the listening section...they played some kind of Chinese radio in a 400square metre room so I could barely hear a soung...btw I work in London and communicate with people from all over the world everyday so I don't really understand the usefulness of such tests...however contact me if you need some good study material and wish you best of luck!

[fcjkappel]

@contism thanks, i made it with a 7.5 score!
