IELTS stands for ‘International English Language Testing System’ and is an English proficiency exam. This will test your reading, writing, speaking and listening skills.
The IELTS exam is developed and managed by the British Council, IDP and Cambridge Assessment English. This exam is taken by millions of people every year.
One of the reasons the test is so popular it that it is recognised by more than 10,000 organisations worldwide.
Therefore, the IELTS exam is a tool for non-native English speakers to improve their skills and pursue the career, scholarship or migration opportunity of their dreams.
