IELTS listening multiple choice questions with long sentences is very very difficult .. I am trying and practicing my level best .. but no improvement .. ☹️

[@aminughani9998]

Thank you for your time and the class was informative . In questions 1 and 2 , is C and A acceptable as the answer? Because of the order in which the question was asked.

[@abdulrehmanhafeez6315]

Hi. Chris. Red herring is a something which distracts you while trying to focus on something

[@md.naimuddin5560]

I felt like your this session was comparatively easy then the one we are going to face in real exam. I have answered all the questions correctly. Thanks for your support. Hope to get more class on listening.

[@ThuPham-dw7qt]

"It's all about tricks in the listening" - gap filling -> dont take notes - multiple choice -> taking notes highly recommended - always write CAPITAL letters (easier for examiners to read and understand)

[@IELTSDaily]

Nice one

[@ThuLe-kh8md]

remember to listen for the "s/es" at the end guys, if the word is not in its plural form when it's supposed to be you will lose your mark

[@IELTSDaily]

Correct!

Effective strategies indeed. Chris, I've scored 9 in my listening section. Last time it was 8.5 but this time it's 9! I can't thank you enough, Chris.

[@IELTSDaily]

That's wonderful Iffat. So pleased for you 🙂🙂

[@skarimi3007]

You're one of the few IELTS teachers who suggests taking notes while listening, and from my own experience it can make a big difference, particularly for multiple choice and matching questions which usually come with a lot of synonyms and distractions. Thanks for your helpful tips

[@IELTSDaily]

Pleasure..glad to be of assistance.

[@ahmedmuhammad2177]

Sir Chris strategies are the most successful one's i have ever seen, was fan of his reading tips and now for listening note taking tricks, can't thank you enough Chris!

[@IELTSDaily]

Wow. Thanks Ahmed. Glad you enjoy them 😌☺️

[@devpatel0532]

Have you given the test by now ?

[@anoottii]

Hi Chris.. I took my test today.. (20 Nov '21) Thought I would share the questions here... For speaking :- #Part 1:- • my name? •studying or doing a job? •more info about my job •what I like about my job? • will I continue doing it? #Part 2 Describe a cafe or a restaurant I visited recently •how was the place •with whom I went •why I choose that place •will I go there again #Part 3 •is the place I visited was a cafe or restaurant •what's the difference •do people prefer a cafe over a restaurant •do humans, in general, like to stay alone or get socialized •why would a person choose to be alone •is it good to be surrounded by strangers in a big city Phew...! 🥵 Writing:- ×Task 1 A table was given which shows the info on the water usage(in %) by 4 different countries ×Task 2 When employers choose the best person, personal qualities are given more importance than qualifications and experience. To what extent do you agree with this statement + examples PS :- as this was my first attempt, I was too much worried... I think I messed up with the part 3 questions in speaking. 2-3 times I went off-topic too... 😬 In task 1&2 writing...honestly, I don't have any idea 😐 I was able to manage the time but still worried about the TA, LR and CC...

[@IELTSDaily]

Thanks for sharing Anaswara.

[@ahmedmuhammad2177]

You must have got your results now. What scores did you get?

Helloo...! My results are out.. L -7.0, R-7.5, W-6.5, S-7.0.. overall 7.0.... This is my first attempt and all the credit goes to Chris, Jackson and others in IELTS Daily and Asiya Miart in Fastrack IELTS....!!!😍

Hi Chris. Thank you so much for sharing useful tips. Im waiting for writing tips

[@findajudithngaujah3796]

Great tips and tricks. It's really very easy to get the correct answers this way. My only concern is what time would one use during the exam to search through the notes you've made to find the answers?

[@shahadathossine3335]

You are really a good speaker. Your pronunciation is so clear and it can be helpful for me. I always try to following you Through the watching video. The most important thing is that, you talking style is really impressive. Thank you.

[@IELTSDaily]

Thanks so much Shahadat. That's very kind of you

[@ajaykumara7158]

Hi, Chris, I find your idea of taking notes is quite suitable for me as I am qualified stenographer taking notes @ 120 w.p.m. So I feel one should be rapid in taking down the notes accurately. For those who are slow in taking notes, its difficult i thought.

[@IELTSDaily]

True

[@udadiganasiddhattha4817]

Thanks again. I am improving my listening skills with your useful tricks.

[@IELTSDaily]

[@mak..2051]

I got 7...in my 1st attempt and it was the highest score among all 4 tests ...got surprised....becoz I found it really tricky...1 audio played fast...I followed Chris's strategy of making notes while I was quickly reading the booklet..it really works.

[@IELTSDaily]

Hi Uzma, great score. We are so glad the strategy of making notes works for you.

Did u make notes for all kinds of questions?

[@leticiabarroscorreadelima9502]

Hi Chris :) Great class as always! I was looking forward to learn your listening tips. Since you mentioned the difference between American and British spelling, I wonder if the IELTS examiner could mark us down if there is any inconsistency on the use between the two. I notice that sometimes I use both at the same time and I don't know if I should get worried with this.

[@IELTSDaily]

No. No problem if you mix them ☺️

[@tirnom]

I’ve just recognized worried thing about gym. In my language and culture GYM means exactly and only “heavy athletics” - weightlifting. And FINTESS, overwise, means only “light athletics” where sportsmen lift up only their own weight. But here Chris said that GYM equals FITNESS. How many identical terms in our languages have different meanings?..

[@aminughani9998]

An amazing class Chris, thank you. For questions 1 and 2 can one put C and A in the order its suppose to be. Is it acceptable?

Hello Chris, I have one inquiry about adding the letter "S" is it okay if we miss it? for example Tutor arrangements, but we wrote Tutor arrangement. Thank you in advance.

[@IELTSDaily]

First of all 'tutor arrangement' or 'tutor arrangements' would never be an official answer in the test as it doesn't mean anything. Secondly, the question about 's', there is a little flexibility on some listening answers for singular and plural.
