This video provides 5 tips for how to approach the listening section of the IELTS exam.
You’ll get an overview, important tips to prepare and perform well on the listening test, and we’ve even included two sample listening prompts to practice. As both the general training and academic exams have the same speaking section, this video will help if you plan to take either version. Our teachers at Helppo developed this content to prepare you for taking either the general training or the academic IELTS exam.

This tip mostly applies to preparing for the IELTS exam. Before taking the test, it’s always a good idea to listen to the practice exams on the IELTS website. The exam’s listening practice consists of four parts.
08:57 Tip #5 Listen for Important Information
