7:30 Report to improve Listening, Speaking, Reading and Writing!

How to Improve IELTS listening, speaking, reading and writing utilising the 7:30 Report
The 7:30 Report is an Australian news program that often provides news stories that are suitable for IELTS preparation students. I encourage you to visit the site and 5 or 6 times/week do the following:
Follow these steps for each ‘report’ you listen to:
I. Read the heading and guess what words you will hear BEFORE you listen.
- write 5-7 words
II. Listen to the story and tick ✓ the word each time you hear it.
III. Next, listen to the story again but this time with the transcript and identify 2-3 new words.
- write these new words on to your word list
IV. Lastly, play the story again and this time, read along with the speakers.
