- nglish listening and spelling quiz to test your understanding of names.
You will hear 20 names. I say each name once and then I spell it letter by letter. I give you the correct answer after each question.
I am speaking at normal speed in this listening quiz, exactly like a native English speaker. This is a very useful exercise because it's very important to be able to understand people's names and to spell them correctly.
Here are some other English listening tests:

As a non-native English speaker, this is the hardest part for me, so I really appreciate this video!!
I still have to think about whether it's "a" "e" or "i"
semangat
the only problem i haveeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Me too .
That's my problem too Specially when people spell too fast😬
@@monicaleon7605 yes! I thought I was the only one :)
Let's all be honest. It was hard!
I've been a receptionist for more than a year and i had to take names on the fly. Like Andruskevich, Garasimowiecz, and many others. After all, I had Wright and Hughes wrong 🤭😵🤭 Thanks for all the fun 🥰❤️🙋
(Not a native English speaker)
Yes, it was.
Don't worry even English native could type my name incorrectly even If I spelled it to them correctly.
Consequently, we are going for the phone numbers these days :)
It's difficult 😢
.
😅
Porco dio
This is hard not
This is very difficult for me
18/20.
confusing:
A,E
P,B,T,D,G
W, UU (double u) but rare case only to have double u in spelling
Tips:
- first pay attention to the name so u'll have the idea what to spell (some might be familiar already)
- practice writing as fast as u can as u listen to the spellings.
❤
There are several sound that easy to misunderstand such as : " A and H ", " P and B " & " S and F " So, anyone like me?
here
Me, R and A, E and I.... 😭
Me T and D
Me when he says doble ee or ll xd i think it is w 🤣🤣
I always confuse r with o😔
I am the only one who has struggle with spelling. Always try and I just got a few correct answers
D mm I only got 3-4 answers correct
Not you're not the only one my friend
Same I work as a cash register and I always get names misspelled
Ur not alone !!! I’m study g for the Ielts and this is annoying me
I usually get 35-39 correct answers in ielts listening but somehow always fail when it comes to spelling.
This was exactly what I wanted to find. For IELTS listening. I had concerns about spelling names. And Christ Jesus the Son of God helped me! By you and your videos. Thank you again!
I used to had issues with spelling but I practiced more with your videos and finally I am getting better results: 14/20. I will keeping practicing often. Thanks Andrew!
That's a good score. More listening tests here: th-cam.com/play/PL6BDo90oiwpRdmnAzmYwdc0Az0ZOG2XNA.html

Ooo zurku
Thank you Andrew.
I'm honest....only three right answers, but with more practice I'll improve my skills
I just started my receptionist job and catching the names correctly is my most challenge as English is not my native language. I got 19 right out of 20 with your test but that because your pronunciation is so clear. I wish everyone spells their name with normal speed. I will keep practicing. Thank you, it was fun!
same here!! It's harder when they have different pronunciation and accent 😔
how do u cope when u can't get their name right? I am currently retail employee and I would like to go to more over the phone customer service role, but I am afraid that I might not be able to cope with over the phone conversations I've got 16/20 in this challenge. Do you ask them to spell it slower for you or something like that?
I've got 6/20 when you said the names and 17/20 when you spelled them.
Thank you so much!
I just got 10 out of 20. I don't have difficulty with speed but I am confused between the letters c and t. it's absolutely challenging to hear them clearly.
Thank you for your helpful video. I hope that I can make more progress in the next tests
i did it for the first time.....18 are correct out of 20.... thank alot for this practice session......tht will be helpful in ielts test

The reason why I came to this video is I work as a retail assistant selling sunglasses, and I struggle with details capture, and let me tell you my customers spell their names at that speed or even faster so I believe the speed used on this video is right on point.
Yes, I agree. People really do speak at that speed and sometimes they have complicated names. That is why I made this video. I hope it helped you. Thanks for your comment. 🙂
Andrew
At Mr Brown you spell "D"rown. I heard it 5 times.
Even on Campbell “the way he spell I wrote Campbell” is it only me or others as well.
I hear D
@@ajvloglifestyle9189yesss
I´ve got 19 out of 20. I confused the letter S with an F in no. 4. Well I just have to keep practicing. Thank you very much for the video!
I am from a French-speaking country and I have difficulties understanding what you said. What would be the best way to improve my listening skills? Please help me.
I've got 16 answers right and four wrong. I found out that I've had a trouble to distinguish between the consonants "p" and "b" when you spell them. With the vowels, I need to be very concentrated. I still tend to write the Spanish sound. For example, the vowel sound of "E" /I/ in Spanish is /e/. I need more exercises of listening and spelling. Thank you very much for your work.
I have got 15/20 right answers. and i also realized that i got stuck in 's' vs 'h', some times was 'b' vs 'p' as well.
a e i
ei i ai
The same happens to me too!

I got 19/20

Thank's for excellent lesson ! You helped me in preporations by IELTS!
Thanks a lot.very useful practice for me 🎉
Hi teacher, your listening test is fantastic. I got 16 out of 20. I have to study more. Please, could you produce more videos like that? ;0) from Brazil.
I can't distinguish the spelling of ''t' and 'c' in the 17th question, which make me write Dochercy. What should I do to improve it? Thank you sir.
ok but your "T" sounds like "C"
I thought the same!!!
same here
I thought the same too!!
This is very helpful!
Please make this video more (listening: name). Particularly British names, which are very uncommon for non-natives.
I have found this test interesting. Only 13 right answers. The names with HT, HP and double consonnants were more difficult to understand. Thanks for all the next exercises.
Was it normal native English speaking? Alea jacta est on my IELTS.
Hello Mr. Andrew, Well I correct all except 11. You spell Reed and I wrote Raad.
Before writing, I thought, it must be Reed but made a mistake in Question 11.
Thanks for your Quiz.
I agree
I also wrote Raad lol.
I just typed correctly 3 of them. I've just started learning IELST and this is the first part I have to go through ( I feel like it is the hardest part of the Listening IELST test ) I don't know what is waiting for me ahead :))
15 Correct from 20, thanks for sharing such a good lesson.
i got 16 correct answers. 1st Tailer, 2nd Newic, 3rd campell, 4th hendarsen
thank you from 2024, July 20 from Uzbekistan
Thank you, it's really helpful. However I think on the IELTS exam, generally speakers don't talk such quicker, it's good way to improve our concentration and listening skills. Perfect.
In my practicing tests they do speak that fast
@@regianetostes3446 where can i find them?
This is perfect. I am German living in the US and as a bartender I also have to take take-out orders. My English is perfect, but I can't "read" spelled words and have a hard time when people spell their last name.
Yes, it's a very difficult skill to learn, especially in a noisy bar. I'm glad the video was useful.
Andrew
It's a very beneficial practice, but surnames on IELTS Listening tests are much more complicated. I managed to write almost all of your examples before you spelled them, but sometimes I fail to write it correctly on IELTS Listening tests.
Where I can find those test? You know?
Thank you! I need to practice this… got 17/20, misspelled LEWIS, WRIGHT and DOCHERTY.
i'm vietnamese .so i think you spell so fast
yes, he spell very fast
i think , too
That happen in a real situation, you have to improve your skills in a regular situation
it's the idea if you want to improve
Me, too. "S" but I heard it "F"
I've got 15 at the first time. I've noticed that "t" sometimes sounds like "c" or "d". Review number 18 in the exercice, I've listen to it many times, and I hear "Docherty" at the whole name, but I couldn't hear that in the spell, , I always hear "Tochercy". Thanks for the exercise!
Yes, I hear he pronounces "c" on every "t". The first time I encounter this situation, I find it kinda weird
I got 21/20 thank you
Thank's for excellent lesson ! You helped me in preporations by IELTS! after one month all of them corrected thank's again
It's a pleasure. I'm delighted that your English is improving with my lessons. Thank you for the comment.
Best wishes,
Andrew
Thank you sir for your effort to assist us since we are week in English. I am from Bangladesh. My IELTS exam on next week. I write 18 names correctly except the 10th and 18th . In practice session of IELTS listening I often face problem with names. I think your video can help me. Thanks again.

Good morning mentor....you re amazing 👏 I got 17 out of 20
Thnku so much 💓
Good but your "s" sounds like "f" when spelling out...confusing a bit
Agree too :D
That's how england people talks
That's right😊
agree
yeah, i got confused in question sixteen because the s in Hayes sound like an f
Thankyou Mr.Andrew.I got 19/20 marks.
"b" sounds like "d"
"h"? I'm confused 😀
I replayed a thousand time every word just to listen correctly the name.
Trust me. Even subtitle option heard the S as F
When we do IELTS, listening is quick like this?
It's tricky when you spelling double consonants, like double E or W E in the surname Reed
I swear to god it sounded exactly R-A-A-D
@@mond2440 for me at first too
me too
thank you for sharing the video to help us improve English, I didn't like to learn English when I was a student, but I am interesting in learning English now.
For Dave "REED" your pronunciation was "r" double -a- D
Double ei obviously
I got 15 out of 20, it is my opinion that the more you practice the more you learn that was my experience 🎉
For no10 , Mark Campbell, you say Campbell and then when spelling you say CampDll. Got 19 out of 20.
I have a question, Admin. How do you spell “LL”?
You can say each letter twice: "L", "L"
or
you can say "Double L"
Best wishes
Andrew
it is so fast , isn't it ?
i have got 15 out of the 20 questions, i don't know if the voice is not clear or it is due to your British accent which is barely hard to catch up ... thanks a lot for this useful resource to improve someone's English listening .
Hello Andrew! I've got 10 of 20. To be honest, I make confusione with the sound of vowels.Thank you.
me too.
I also make confusion with a sound of vowels, I've got 18/20
I knew names like henderson watson thomas taylor brown anderson murphy so i didn't make a mistake but the spell is much faster.Thank you. from Uzbekistan
I have problem distinguishing Lewis / Louis
14-15. Thank you, Andrew
