IELTS listening shouldn't be a problem for you given your background. Though I think it's more of a spelling error? I've been using English for as long as yours and turned out with a 8.5 speaking and listening. I suspect it might just be how you fill in the words itself. Good luck! I'm pretty sure you can nail it :)

Given your background English shouldn't be a problem, it must be silly mistakes. Here is something I used for my IELTS and got 7.5 average. I used this 2 weeks prior to my test date so that all the tips are fresh in my mind.

A little bit of listening practice is recommended.
