If you think there must be more to teaching IELTS Listening than just doing lots of IELTS Listening, then this is the book for you. It contains over 200 pages of classroom-tested photocopiables that should quickly improve students’ IELTS Listening scores and listening skills more generally, with stimulating materials on the most common language from the Listening paper, vital exam tips, and typical student difficulties.

This IELTS Listening e-book includes:

  • icebreakers, warmers and easy introductions to IELTS Listening

  • specific materials for every part of the exam and every question type (multiple choice, gapfill, maps, diagram labelling, and the many different kinds of matching task)
  • work on words that students often have difficulty in catching and/ or writing down (homophones, minimal pairs, words with silent letters, words with double letters, etc)
  • work on typical vocabulary from the exam (compound nouns, British English, synonyms of the words in the questions, etc)

As the name of the book suggests, the materials in Teaching IELTS Listening: Interactive Classroom Activities are all designed to stimulate classroom interaction, with no awkward silences, no wasting time on things that are better done at home, and a surprising amount of useful classroom speaking for a book on listening! Stimulating pairwork and groupwork activities also help make the language and tips more memorable, and lead to more intensive practice of the language than more traditional IELTS Listening materials do. Such activities include:

  • tips and useful phrases
  • personal form filling practice
  • dictation, including pairwork dictation
  • pairwork error correction
  • roleplays
  • personalised sentence completion activities
  • using IELTS Listening language challenges
  • IELTS Speaking on listening and IELTS Listening topics
  • discussion questions
  • brainstorming language for IELTS Listening
  • guessing games
  • finding things in common
  • bluffing
  • races
  • simplest responses

Teaching IELTS Listening: Interactive Classroom Activities can be used for everything from a one-off lesson to a whole IELTS Listening course, including as a supplement to less interactive and less intensive IELTS textbooks and listening materials. Its materials are also designed for use before and after official practice tests.
