Why Take the IELTS?

Taking the IELTS test opens up a world of opportunities. It is widely accepted by educational institutions, employers, and government authorities as proof of English language proficiency. The test is essential for those seeking to:

  • Study at an English-speaking university or institution
  • Work in an English-speaking country
  • Emigrate for better career prospects and life abroad

What is on the IELTS?

The IELTS test evaluates the four key language skills:

    1. Listening

      • Duration: 30 minutes
      • Format: You will listen to four recordings of native English speakers and then write your answers to a series of questions.

    2. Reading

      • Duration: 60 minutes
      • Format: The reading section consists of three passages, with tasks designed to test your reading skills and comprehension.

    3. Writing

      • Duration: 60 minutes
      • Format: The writing section requires you to complete two tasks: one where you need to describe a situation or analyze data, and another where you express an opinion or argument.

    4. Speaking

      • Duration: 11–14 minutes
      • Format: The speaking section is a face-to-face interview where you need to discuss familiar topics and answer questions based on tasks provided by the examiner.

The entire IELTS test lasts for 2 hours and 45 minutes, with the Listening, Reading, and Writing sections completed in one sitting. The Speaking test may be on the same day or up to a week before or after the other tests.

How are IELTS Tests Scored?

IELTS scores are reported using a 9-band scale to provide a consistent and accurate measure of English proficiency. You will receive individual band scores for Listening, Reading, Writing, and Speaking, as well as an Overall Band Score on a scale from 1 to 9.
