IELTS Listening - Form Completion

INTRODUCTION

It's time to practice form completion. Today we have three sets of activities that will allow us to first practice together, an then practice independently.

ACTIVITY A: Practice important vocabulary before starting the listening activity in Activity B.

ACTIVITY B: Inside this package of files, you will find a question sheet. Listen as your teacher plays the audio files, and answer the questions online on the ONLINE ANSWER SHEET.

ACTIVITY C: Answer the questions, then mark yourself. Be sure to check the banding conversion chart to see your band!

GOING DEEPER

Just so you know, this question type has five versions (forms, notes, tables, flow charts, and summaries) and for each version, there are two types - A) choosing answers from a list of words, or B) using up to three words from the audio.

This means that this questions type has 10 possible versions! Take a look and see for yourself!
