IELTS LISTENING (SPELLING PRACTICE Online Test

The Listening Module is the same in Academic as well as General IELTS. It consists of four parts each having 10 questions. The first two sections are related to social needs, while the next relate to educational or training contexts. These are in the form of conversations and then a monologue. During the test, students first write the answers on the Question Paper as they listen to the tape. When the tape ends, ten minutes are allowed for candidates to transfer their answers onto an Answer Sheet. Surprisingly, most of the students make Spelling mistakes while writing and transferring the answers.
