01Give listening its own session
Open the number trainer and choose a listening exercise. Try to identify the spoken number before replaying it. Build the connection between the number you know and the sound you hear.
02Replay with a purpose
If a number is unclear, listen again and compare your answer. Focus on the part you missed, then try another exercise. Set a comfortable volume and give the spoken number your full attention.
03Return in short sessions
Practice a manageable set, take a break, and come back later. You can combine dedicated listening work with ordinary speaking practice for the situations you meet in Brazil.
