About listening skills notes

GoConqr Original

Explore Listening Skills notes

The notes offer different ways into listening. Listening Transcript presents a weather forecast as a conversation. Other notes cover features of spoken English, including stress, speech rate and accent, or offer ideas for understanding and remembering information.

For a straightforward starting point, read the weather transcript and identify the details in each part of the forecast. If you are preparing for an exam, look at the notes on B1 listening tasks: one includes a radio interview script and multiple-choice questions, while another has a conversation and true-or-false questions. The FCE notes list videos and answers.

Make the notes work for you

Use a transcript or script to check details you noticed, then look at an overview note to explore features that can make spoken English harder to follow. When you want a different kind of practice, switch to a quiz on the Listening Skills unit page. Choose a note that matches what you want to work on.
