What is IELTS?

 

The IELTS program allows you to work, study or migrate to English speaking countries (such as the UK, USA, Australia, New Zealand and Canada). The IELTS exam tests your ability to speak, listen, read and write in English. The exam is graded on a scale of 1-9.

 

Why should you take IELTS?

 

Before entering English speaking countries (whether to work, study or migrate) you have to show that you have a high level of English ability. Taking the IELTS exam shows prospective universities and employers that you have this ability. IELTS is by far the most popular test for those thinking of moving to English speaking countries and is recognised by thousands of educational institutions, employers and immigration departments. More information about the IELTS exam can be found here.
