LISTENING PRACTICE FOR LEVELS A1-A2-B1-B2 (and even C1)

1 Comment

Many of you have asked me for extra listening practice. The BRITISH COUNCIL has some fabulous listening activities. The first link is “LearnEnglishTeens” with activities supposed to be for teenagers, but I think they are great for adults, too. The second link is for adults and are a little harder. Most of the audios have activities which are similar to the ones in  “PUC” exams so NO EXCUSES – GET PRACTISING!!! 

CLICK ON THE IMAGES BELOW TO GO TO THE WEBSITES AND CHOOSE YOUR LEVEL. The “LearnEnglishTeens” activities are easier than the others, so I suggest you start there.

I ALSO RECOMMEND BOOKS TRANSLATED FROM SPANISH. FOR EXAMPLE, DOLORES REDONDO’S BAZTAN TRILOGY HAS BEEN VERY SUCCESSFULLY TRANSLATED INTO ENGLISH AND IS NOT DIFFICULT TO READ.
