IELTS, the International English Language Testing System, is a test of English language proficiency and one of the world’s most popular and respected forms of English in education and migration.

Intended for non-native speakers who are looking to study or work in an English-speaking environment, IELTS training is an internationally recognised system for testing English language ability in four categories:

• Listening
• Reading
• Writing
• Speaking

Since its introduction in 1989, IELTS preparation has become one of the most trusted forms of English-language assessment and is accepted by over 8,000 universities, employers and immigration organisations worldwide. IELTS testing methods focus on the candidate’s practical ability to use English in real-life situations.

IELTS Test Types

There are two different types of IELTS test and once graded, your IELTS score is valid for two years.

• Academic IELTS is for international students who wish to study at a UK university or join an institute of higher education.
• General IELTS classes focus on English survival skills and social and workplace language, ideal for those who are planning to migrate to English-speaking countries such as Australia, Canada and New Zealand.

IELTS Practice Test

An IELTS practice test enables teaching staff to assess your current reading, writing, speaking and listening ability before you begin your IELTS preparation course, highlighting your strengths and weaknesses.
