Recommendations to Improve your Listening
My students often ask me what they can do to
improve their listening. So I thought I’d give you some recommendations
and suggestions.
I discovered a new website recently that’s a lot of fun if you’re into
music. It’s called lyrics training and the Spanish version is at
es.lyricstraining.com
The idea is that you search for a song you like and then write the
missing words in the lyrics as you listen to the song. The song pauses
for you to write, so you don’t have to be very quick. You can get lyrics
training both on your mobile phone and on your computer.
There are so many good TV series available now that it’s hard to know
where to start. For comedy, I’d say start with The Office (either
version, although I think the UK British version is better than the US
one), or The Royle Family. Blackadder The Thick of It are also very good.
If you like crime, try Sherlock, Line of Duty and The Fall. The Fall is
based in Belfast, so you get to listen to a lot of Northern Irish
accents.
Downton Abbey, Poldark and The Crown are good dramas and, if you have
Netflix, some of my favourites on Netflix include Black Mirror, House of
Cards and Peaky Blinders which has some wonderful accents from the north
of the UK.
Of course, you can also listen to our podcast at
