By: Maria Campo 'My listening skill is awful', 'I always fail my listening exam, 'Teacher, I didn't understand'... Do you feel this is your situation? Well, let us tell you that your listening skill is not going to get any better if you don't practice. Understanding spoken English is not a miracle, you have to dedicate some extra time to listen.


ADVANTAGES: Your vocabulary increases, your pronunciation gets better, your English level improves!


Here, we give you some recommendations on how to improve your listening skill.


1. Listen to songs. Through songs you can learn more vocabulary. One webpage that could help you with this task is definitely: https://es.lyricstraining.com/play/ed-sheeran/shape-of-you/HbW8nMdnrb. (Also download the app in play market or apple market)


2. Watch series. Either on NETFLIX or online, find your favorite movie, then watch it with English subtitles and discover new vocabulary. This is a webpage designed with this purpose: https://speechyard.com/english-exercises-and-games/


3. Try apps. You can download on play market: ENGLISH SPEAKING PRACTICE. You can practice listening with short conversations, do quizzes and even practice your speaking. This is the link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.talkenglish.practice&hl=en_US


See? There are ways to improve your skills but if you don't try, you'll never improve. Give it a try!!!


Do you have any other suggestion? Let us know in the comments!!!
