Listening to the radio is an inexpensive way to improve your listening skills. We highly recommend using ABC radio as they provide a wide variety of programmes for you to choose from.
You can listen to programmes as they are broadcast ‘live’ on your radio. To help you find the ABC stations that have mainly ‘talking’ programmes, we’ve listed their frequencies for Brisbane and the Gold Coast:

In any list, put commas between the items but “and” between the last two items, generally without a comma, e.g. I saw the boy and the girl together. I went to the shop to buy butter, meat, bread, jam and tomato sauce.
