IELTS (International English Language Testing System) is a test to assess the English language skills of candidates who want to study, work or migrate to a country where English is the official language of communication.

The purpose of the IELTS test is to assess the English language reading, writing, listening and speaking ability of a person who wants to study, work or migrate to an English speaking country.

Four skills are tested – reading, writing, listening and speaking.

The IELTS score is accepted by more than 9,000 organizations worldwide, including schools, universities, employers, immigration authorities and professional bodies. Nursing registration bodies in the UK, Ireland, USA, Canada & Australia accept IELTS

IELTS Academic is for candidates wishing to study at undergraduate or postgraduate level and for those seeking professional registration. Nurses interested in working in the UK, Ireland, USA, Australia or Canada should take Academic IELTS.

Improving your English language skills requires continuous practice and commitment. Cramming before the test is not an effective strategy.

Some people learn better by doing rather than listening. If this is you, you need to find a friend or family member that speaks English well and engage them. By routinely speaking with this person, you’ll improve your listening and speaking skills.

You can also practice listening by watching English movies and television shows. For reading practice, search topics that interest you on the internet or read English language newspapers or magazines.

Uncertainty leads to fear. Find out all the details about the IELTS or OET exam beforehand so you know exactly what you’re up against.

Many test takers fail their IELTS or OET exam not because of their English language skills but because they failed to follow the directions. Don’t let this happen to you.

Many candidates who go on to fail their English language exams memorize sentences and paragraphs from practice exams and try to use them whenever possible. Oftentimes, examiners can identify this.

Memorizing questions and answers from practice exams will do little for you on test day when you are taking an entirely different test.

The speaking portion of the exam can be challenging for many individuals who are at a loss for words when they need it most. Don’t worry! This happens to almost everyone. Take a deep breath and the words will come to you.
