The International English Language Testing System (iELTS) is a
standardized test that assesses the proficiency of English
speakers. This test is designed for people who want to go
abroad and work in other countries. The iELTS score ranges
from one to nine, with nine being the highest score. The test is
valid for two years and is based on the level of difficulty of the
questions. There are 40 questions, with 30 minutes for the
audio portion and 40 questions to be answered. The audio
portion must be listened to carefully, as any problems with the
headphones will be indicated initially.
Academic and general training are different. Academic training
prepares students for a career in the academic world, while
general training prepares students for a career in any field. The
questions on the question paper for people going abroad for
work or study will be the same, but the answer sheet in
listening will have 60 questions and you will have 16 minutes
to finish them. There are many differences between academic
and general training that we will discuss in detail later.

way you have to write a letter and report. Overall, you will be
taking 60 minutes for this course, but it is up to you when you
want to write task 1 and task 2. They will give you a question
paper and answer it at the same time. Speaking is informal

monologue so they will give you a topic. You will be given one
minute of preparation time and then you have to speak for two
minutes continuously. This is a conversation; a person keeps
asking a question, you're replying and a person is asking keep
asking you keep replying instantly if you take a break long
break it's not good. You can ask for time if needed.
In oral speaking, there are three parts: Part One, where you get
to practice asking questions; Part Two, where you get to
prepare for a question; and Part Three, where you get to take
simple questions. In Part One, you might be asked questions
about the topic you are speaking about. For example, one
question might be "What is the preferred method of teaching
foreign languages in your country?" Another question might be
"What is the difference between an IDP and a BC test?" In Part
Two, you will prepare for a question. For example, you might
