These are all really great – thank you so much :) Just found one problem – the link for brainstorming language for IELTS listening links to a business English worksheet for body language and gestures ;)

All spelling must be correct in IELTS Listening. We don’t know about punctuation, but I would try to punctuate all compound nouns etc correctly just in case. Obviously spelling is not tested in the speaking, as it’s all oral
