    Very nice video, thank you, very well explained!
    As an English teacher, if I were asked to boil down language learning to a word, it would be "paraphrasing"! In all of the skills, it is your ability to paraphrase, i.e. say the same thing using different words, which is what gets you marks. It shows fluency in the speaking, vocabulary range in the Writing, and understanding in the Reading and Listening.
    One other tip I would offer, specific to the Listening, is visualise! In this example, see Sally on a raft, see the smiles on her kids' faces, see them eating, see the tour guides. That's why they say a picture is worth a thousand words! Best of luck everybody in the exam!

    This is a very good video, I organize the main points of the speaker. Don't just match the words with the audio, you need to understand the meaning of the audio.

      Your score won't be negatively affected if you have a US accent.

    I'm disapointed with me. I couldn't concentrate in the long listenings. It's imposible to take notes, you only have 45 secs before the listening is played.....and you don't have control on it......Im sad...so sad

    ¡No te pegues tanto al micrófono, alma de cántaro! Es casi imposible soportar el sonido que haces al juntar tu boca al micrófono, lo cual no es en absoluto necesario. Mantén una separación de más de 20 centímetros con el aparato, hombre. Hay que ser más profesional. Luego, ustedes cobran 200 euros por un examen.
