Math Listening Practice for ELI Students

Directions: After you have reviewed how to say numbers, expressions and equations, use the following audio files to quiz yourself.

On a piece of paper, write the name of each level and write the letter of each audio file then skip 5 lines (A, B, C, etc). Each audio file has five numbers, expressions or equations for you to write down.

The recordings are spoken very quickly, so you may want to pause or repeat the recording multiple times. Use the Answer Sheet at the bottom of this webpage to check your answers.

We hope this is a useful resource for you!  If you have any questions or suggestions, please contact Julie Lopez at julo@udel.edu.

Thanks!
