Printed "whoever", the speaker says "wherever"

Explanation: Here the speaker says "wherever they are". The printed word "whoever" is on the page, but not in the audio. Both words start with the same letter, so listen to the whole word before you click.

Printed "excessive", the speaker says "massive"

Explanation: The speaker says "massive open online course," not "excessive". The two words start with different letters, so listen to the first sound. The printed word makes no sense here, so trust your ears.

Printed "grip", the speaker says "flip"

Explanation: Listen for "flip grid". You see "grip" on the page, but the audio has the other word. The words end the same, so you must hear the first letter to decide.

Printed "inside", the speaker says "outside"

Explanation: You will hear "outside of class". Written text shows "inside", but the audio has a different word. The two words start with different letters, so listen right at the start.

Printed "aspirations", the speaker says "applications"

Explanation: On the recording the words are "applications of that knowledge". Both words start with the same letter and end the same, so follow the sound, not the meaning.

"mock" matches the audio

Explanation: "watch a mock massive open" has the word mock. It looks odd near massive, but the speaker says mock exactly as printed, so do not click it.
