What worked for us!

We know that before a listening quiz or an exam, most of us get nervous!
Something that has worked for us is the next technique:

• A day before the quiz try to listen, not to music, but conversations, news, or reports in English. This help you to prepare your brain for the listening quiz.
• Some hours (or even minutes) before the exam, continue listening some English conversations. You can save the tracks in your cellphone or your ipod to listen to them wherever you go.
