Empowering listening
We are all used to listening tasks incorporated into practically every course book, from beginners to truly advanced. Heavily edited and often strikingly unnatural, they function as testing exercises and only in the context of the lesson – once done, instantly forgotten. That’s a big drawback.
The advent of podcasting has changed a lot in using authentic listening resources in teaching and learning. There are tons of fantastic quality programmes available for multiple listening sessions, at any time, anywhere, with that bonus of a personal, almost intimate feel that good podcasts, like good radio, always have.
To meet the needs of Diana, Gosia, Karolina, Jarek, Joanna and Michał, all members of ielts_7 group, we start an online collection of selected podcasts aiming particularly at students focused on IELTS.
Our selection: Raw listening for IELTS
