"A Podcast Series for Curious Listeners" is a C2 Proficiency Writing practice task (review). Cambridge assesses content, communicative achievement, organisation and language on a scale from 0 to 5 per criterion. Plan before you write: identify the target reader, the required register and the number of points you must address. At C2, examiners expect sophisticated vocabulary used accurately, varied sentence structures and clear paragraphing.
Plan the review before writing, address every prompt point, keep the expected register, respect the word limit, and use feedback to improve content, organisation, grammar range, and vocabulary precision.
An online magazine is looking for reviews of podcast series that teach listeners something new. Write a review of a podcast you have listened to. Describe its subject and style, assess how engaging it is, and recommend it to a particular type of listener. Write 220–260 words.
