IELTS Listening: working on your mistakes

Are you really working on your mistakes and learning from them?

Whenever you make a mistake in a practice test, you have the opportunity to make a small improvement. But this will only happen if you analyse the mistake carefully, comparing your answer with the correct answer in order to understand what went wrong.

Perhaps you made the mistake because of a particular word or phrase. Perhaps you misunderstood something, or missed a key detail because you were stuck on a previous question. Or perhaps you couldn't keep up with the speed of the recording and the amount of information. If you want to make progress, you need to find out what the problem was.

Take the time to analyse your weaknesses and learn from them.
