FAQ
What is IELTS?
IELTS (International English Language Testing System) is a standardized test designed to assess the English language proficiency of non-native speakers. It evaluates the test taker’s ability to communicate effectively in English across listening, reading, writing, and speaking – reflecting real-world use, especially in academic, professional, and everyday contexts.
Why is IELTS important?
IELTS is crucial for individuals seeking to study, work, or migrate to English-speaking countries. Many universities, employers, immigration authorities, and professional bodies worldwide accept IELTS scores as a trusted measure of English language proficiency.
What are the IELTS test types?
IELTS offers two main test types: IELTS Academic and IELTS General Training. Both test types assess the four language skills – listening, reading, writing, and speaking – but differ in their focus. The Academic version is intended for those applying to higher education or professional registration, while the General Training version is for migration or work purposes.
