I have been teaching the English language for 17 years and CELPIP for almost 4 years.
I have lived in South Korea (5 years) and Japan (5 years) and I had to learn those languages while I lived there. So I hope that I can help you.
Ask your questions in the comments below. I will record video answers. This should help you with listening and maybe with some of the finer points of CELPIP.

It is important that you do all of these activities EVERY DAY. If you are not living in an English-speaking country where you can go to shops, recreation/sports centres, restaurants, etc., and practice English, you need to spend as much time as possible each day doing something in English for at least a couple of hours. This will help you to practice thinking in English, too.
TV and Radio to improve listening CBC News Listening (CELPIP Listening All Parts) CBC TV Listening (CELPIP Listening All Parts especially Parts 4 & 5)
Websites to improve fluency (listening and speaking) Rachel's English Ben Franklin Exercises Listen to each video several times and repeat what Rachel and her guests say. If you practice these often you will improve your listening and speaking skills in a few weeks, even if you are not in an English country! Songs to improve fluency
Listen to these songs and try to learn them. If you do this it will definitely help your ability to hear and speak English more quickly! Do not focus on YOUR pronunciation of the words that you see, focus on LISTENING TO THE SINGERS PRONUNCIATION OF GROUPS OF WORDS and you should do the same.
Here is a link to a series of Facebook pictures that you can use to get an idea of how to answer this part of the test well! I hope this is helpful! I will make more of these in the near future! This first series of pictures is actually for TASK 8, but it is helpful to use the picture as a way to practice. The second image is for Task 3.
In the video I refer to a link that you should visit to hear Canadian speakers from a popular show, The Fifth Estate, on Canada's national news service, the CBC. Here is the linkwww.realenglishvictoria.com
