I got a band 9 in listening 🎉🎊
Well done!
How bro can you tell me
@@sahiltbreak pray and practice I practiced all the listening sample test in cambridge 1-17 that's 68 plus the 8 listening sample test in the official guide to ielts making it 76 listening practice tests that I did
@@oluwatosinakinfolajimi9857 how many bends u got overall
@@farwasherazi 8.0
I actually got a band 9 in ielts academic listening first try, and a band 8 overall. Thank you so much chris, your videos have been very very helpful
Fantastic! Congratulations!
How much time did you study before the test?
Yo
Thank you sir, I got a 9 in listening and overall 8! I suggest you guys to practice 15-20 tests, dont get worried on scoring less in those coz i got around 33/40 on my home tests. And more importantly try to focus on the audio. There may be random chair pulls in the exam hall around this time quite enough to distract you.
Great job!
did you do academic or general kun
Congratulations pls any tips on reading and writing pls
i heard that they are the same. I mean listening part @@sand0366
Did you take paper based or pc based IELTS?
Hi Chris, I'm crying with joy... I had been working on my listening skills for a long time and I did not make any progress. I was getting disappointed in my favorite job because IELTS was like an unsolvable problem for me. But you saved me with your free courses, I've been watching this video for a week, and I pause the video every few seconds and I was shocked that such information is free! I can't believe that I finally understood the cause of all my problems, especially the vocabulary mini-course that you gave helped me a lot . I don't know how and with what words to thank you. I am really grateful and I hope that people who do not live in a sanctioned country like me، and have the conditions to use you excellent vip courses will not waste even 1 second of their time... You are undoubtedly the best IELTS teacher in the world, I was really lucky to find you Thank you and I appreciate all your efforts.
Thank you for your kind words. Glad it was helpful! If you have any questions or need our team to help you prepare for your exam, please feel free to contact us.
@@Ieltsadvantagehow can I contact you really i need your help to improve my lisentning
@@Ieltsadvantage Hi dear
I got 7 bands in IELTS Academic by the blessings of Allah Almighty and yes with a lot of guidance from your videos ❤️ I hit 7.5,7.5,6.0 in LRW and 6.5 in speaking.
Well done! If you ever need our help in the future, you know where to contact us.
@@Ieltsadvantage definitely ❤️
congrats. Would you tell me how much time you use to study to be prepared to get that score? and how much time per day?
@@NaniUzcategui I gave more than 2 months to my self-preparation and I studied for less than 2 hours each day!
Which your level when you started before this 2 months? Congratulations 🎉
Even though I got a 9 in listening, I couldn't help but watch this video. This is the channel we need to pass the IELTS!
How much time did you study for the test?
10:05 Listennig is like building muscle ❣ 24:58 about spelling mistake 35:21 Reduce destruction 1:26:24 Map practising
From 4 bands to 6.5 in one month, which was my desired score, Thank you so much for providing strategies in an era of tricks and tips
Woah! Well done!
congrats man
Awesome Chris, you could not have done anything more than this to drill the nuances of the listening test into our heads !!1 thank you so so much...
Hello Mr.Chris, I just want to say thank you and wish all the best will come to you and your family. I've just got 9.0 in Listening and 7.5 overall (test date 20th of May in Vietnam) after constantly watching and practicing with your videos over 2 weeks. Sending gratitude to you all the way from Vietnam.
Excellent! Congratulations!
HOW IT WAS
Dude congrats!!!
did you just take your preparation with their videos
@@flowersmokeprob he had good English knowledge about listening ,because he cant get 9 in such a less time from starting zero
Is anyone else like me? I did very well on Part 4 - which is kind of an academic context, but for part 2-3, I was bad at hearing multi-people talking, sounds confusing to me.
I am facing the same while practicing … 1 and 4, i score the highest
Actually part 1 and 4 are more easier than 2 and 3 for me. People get 9 on listening, how!? When more than 1 person talking to me , I can't focus on it
that is exactly what I see
@@shubhamishra1546 me too , its really hard to focus on dialog
Yess I experienced the same thing 😖
When I took IELTS listening part, computer-type version, I got confused with how those questions were organized. To reach some of them, I needed to scroll my screen to the right, which I didn't do. I skipped around 4 questions, so - I tried to calm down and did educational guessing, used some logics to answer those questions. My result 7.5 in listening. Conclusion: never give up, you still can do really well :))
Great job!
During computer based exam, did they give you any paper for taking notes?
@@zohrenesibova3778 no, it was a big surprise
How much time did you study for the test?
thanks for the tips, I got band 9 in listening recently. My best advices to all of u guys studying are: trying to stay 100% focus, and know all the tricks and stradegies.
Great job! Congratulations!
Hey, how was the speed of the audio in the real exams?
@@AshishRawat-zl6te 0.9 x normal speed in cambridge. Easier than i thought
@@itsme_koii thanks, appreciate the reply.
@@AshishRawat-zl6te but be prepared yourself foe the stress while listening. It can be troublesome
Thanks a lot chris for this amazing guidance ❤
my ielts test in three days, please wish me luck🍀🍀🍀🤞🏼
Good luck!
Good luck😊
My ielts is tomorrow 💀
@@NoobGoblins WISH US TONS OF LUCKK🍀
Good luck
Such selfless service to record a two-hour tutorial and share it so freely. Thank you. I chanced upon the video but it automatically skipped ahead to the listening test so I only realized it was a whole tutorial afterwards. I must point out a minor correction in your answer for question 12 though in the context of the speech, the correct answer is E (simple polluting fuels) not D as suggested by the answer sheet. I stand to be corrected.
Great video. Thanks a lot I can't wait to see a 2-hour video about IELTS Reading tips.
You really nail it! You're indeed a very good teacher. I can hear all that you said perfectly. If the other people speaking the English language can be like you, many students would have passed their listening test at once.
You nail it means?
@@faizashafat3394 It means that you did something very well or perfectly.
i got 7 bands in listening and overall 7 in IELTS academics test and i just watched a few videos related to every module just to get an understanding of paper pattern and trust me no one can guide u better than this man.
This is the best video on IELTS listening, i got 8.5 bands in listening and an overall score of 8 bands. Thank you so much for your valuable content 🙏
That's great!
This is such a good compilation of how to ace IELTS! I'm so glad I watched this video just a month before my IELTS exam; the way that the instructor teaches HOW to learn and WHY you need to be perfect in your learning method.... seriously hats off to him. 🤩
How much did you score?
Plz help me too

I am also preparing for ielts these days and your channel is helping immensely Thank you

Thanks a lot Chris!, I'm really grateful to you, After watching all your videos and following the strategies along with some practice , I have scored a band 8 overall, 8.5 in listening and reading! Really appreciate your hard work and dedication!
Thank you for this Mr Chris! Am impressed God bless you sir.
Hi,Chris.Thanks for al of this.I think you are best IELTS instructor❤
I'm in love with you Chris... The way you explain the way you make constant efforts to help students like me is just amazing.... Whenever, I hear or see any videos by other youtubers/ any lecture on IELTS nowadays my constant reaction is I start comparing to what you advised and what they are teaching... Like it's my instant reaction.... Thank you so much...
😊
Thank you for sharing 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 great tips!
By far, the best video compiling everything one must know about the IELTS Listening test. So glad I stumbled across your channel!
Hello! Your videos are so helpful! So lucky to find it😎. Maybe you can run your own podcast, cause it seems you have a lot to say not only about IELTS
Hi Chris I found 30 correct answers from the test which you gave i understood my weak points Thank you for helping us to know all things about IELTS
How to get anwers???
Well spoken. Your accent is the most fluent accent i have ever heard.
Hi Chris, first of all, thank you for this fantastic video and the effort you put into tutoring us. Secondly, I got a score of 33/40 in the above test, a few questions I got wrong were due to missing out words such as "THE" in the answers. I can't seem to figure out whether to use such words in some answers or omit them in others. Your suggestions would be highly appreciated.
Amazing Sir Chris this is such a great help for me😊Thanks a bunch🙏🥰
Got around 30 correct ans , and the last section is actually helpful in real life too. Thanks Chris
I got the same score as you! Have you taken the test yet? if yes, can you tell me how it was and how much you scored?
I want to say thank you so much to Chris for all the free content! I got an overall score of 8,5 (9.0 R & L, 7.5 W & S) on my first IELTS Academic test, and all I did was watch your videos and practice using Cambridge's IELTS Academic books, all in less than 2 weeks. The most important tips I can offer are to focus during your test, be confident, and believe in yourself! It's important to know your strengths and weaknesses. Practice as much as you can! I only studied for around 1-3 hours a day, but I made sure to give my best during those hours. Disclaimer: I'm from Indonesia, and English is my second language. I also speak Indonesian on a daily basis. However, I have had a lot of exposure to English, whether from my studies (I'm a clinical medical student, so I read lots of academic journals, textbooks, etc) or just from movies, games, etc.
Thank you so much. You are very generous. Congratulations on the amazing score.
Thank you for your video! You got me comfortable and right strategy
I did the the listening tests on KZhead and they were easy, but the test here was difficult for me! Thanks for telling us about that !
And to that's why most people fail because some of those KZhead test are easier compare to the real test.
Thank you for your works, you are so helpful and conscientious!
I'm glad to hear that it was helpful! If you have any more questions, please don't hesitate to email us. Our team members will be more than happy to assist you.
Yo! Chris you're a blessing man, I swear!! I was freaking out a week to my exams but your tutorials made it possible for me to get a band 7.5 overall, R7, W7, L8.5, S7.5 I was initially very bad at essays and writing in general but you helped set me straight.
PS: I would have gotten a better score in writing but I wasn't able to finish task 1. I'd definitely take your course when I'm preparing for my C2 test.
This is amazing news. Congratulations!
I’m going to take the IELTS test in 5 days. Have been preparing for quite a while, but this video has really helped me to gain insight into what the essence of the listening part is about. Thank you so much! Fingers crossed that I will score 7+
Good Luck

You are my most favorite teacher ❤ Thank you so much sir 😊
Hey Chris. Thank you. Got 34/40
One of my band 9 in IELTS Academic is on the listening subtest. Cambridge materials really helped me a lot.
@jerickpermano8870 , pls how did you get the Cambridge material? I need one. Your prompt response will be appreciated
Chris is just straightforward and simple in his presentation. Keep up the good work.
I got band 7.5 in listening. I’m eternally grateful to you . Thanks a lot for these utilitarian tips.🙏🏻

Was difficulty level in real exam same with Cambridge practice tests?
your video is immenssely helpful, i'm waiting for the ultimate guide for the reading section, i appreciate your efforts a lot. thank you so much!!
You are most welcome! If you have any questions or need our team to help you prepare for your exam, please feel free to contact us.
I got a band 8.5 in listening as I was already quite comfortable with listening module bcs I use to watch international news, watch english movies, talkshows etc. But still i have to work around and practice solving questions within the same time as i heard the answer and if someone missed one asnwer than you will mess the whole test. I kept the trics and word play in mind as I studied for this module and the test became easy
Thanks so much Chris... I had 5 days to prepare for my very first go at IELTS tests which were on the 31st Oct & 1st Nov 2023... and I got overall band 7... with 8 in Speaking, 7.5 in listening, and 6 in writing & reading. Thank you so much
Great job!
I got 28 out of the 40 questions Thank you Chris. I will practice more so as to increase my score
Keep going.
Thank you sir for your guidance Got my results today Listening 8.5 Reading 9 Writing 6.5 Speaking 7 Your videos helped a lot My heartiest thanks 😊
Amazing! Congratulations!

Hello Chris. Thank you, I managed to score 33/40
I score 18 over 40 and this is painful but, am really glad I joined this class. At least now I know my weaknesses and plan to work on them using the strategies am learning here. Kudos to Chris and his team. you guys are doing a great job.👍
Same, did you improve over the 2 weeks?
What was your overall band?
thank you very much for this great video
i got 32 correct but when i took my real test i got only 22 correct i.e 6 band improved a lot thanks chris 💛
Thanks for the test. Even though it's a bit faster than how a standard test would be, it actually helps as the harder you train yourself the easier it gets.
Is it faster than the real listening test?
@@saydullayev_offical1Kobviously

Hi can you plz tell me how much time it took you to prepare for ielts exam?
@@notorious_pac833 It took almost 1 month for whole preparation. Well if you have a great english background I believe knowing the question and cracking the answer in a strategic way is the secret of getting higher band.
I am glad to have come across this video, as I was practicing listening to random videos on KZhead and was getting 35-37 as an average score, but in the listening test at the end of this video I got only 28. It hurts, but at least now I know my weak spots and I can work on those weaknesses before appearing for IELTS.
Great! If you have any questions or need our team to help you prepare for your IELTS exam, please feel free to contact us.

Thank you for your videos on Speaking.they were very helpful and insightful in how to not stress yourself on cue card answering.thank you so much.

Which video your prepartion for listening?
Hello Chris, after paying attention to the entire video and doing the free practice test, I was able to find out where I stand when it came to my listening ability. I got 37/40, and the 3 mistakes were mainly caused by me losing focus or falling for the distractors/traps. I'm really grateful that we have people like you who go as far as to help those that are struggling on their IELTS tests.

I am gonna follow u at the end of my next test 😢, I have saved this video for a long time but never watched it until I failed in my last test and felt guilty for the effort I have made and the money I have paid, so I started to conclude the factors to cause this fail, one sentence from this wisdom just hit my heart--“u don’t want those people in ur life, especially when u r doing IELTS test”😢at the end of my preparation phrase, some family members of mine nearly shredded my heart and smushed my self-esteem 😢
