Understanding fast conversations can be difficult - even at advanced level. In this episode, listening expert Cara Leopold shares some strategies for improving your listening.

Highlights include:

- the different types of spoken English
- listening activities & resources for advanced level
- when to use subtitles
- Movie Club (& how it helps you develop your listening with a community of movie fans)

Plus, a couple of myth-busters!
- why accent isn't always the problem
- why 'Ted Talks' and lists of 'movies to watch' may not help
