- SPEAKING
- In the IELTS Listening test, there are four parts with ten questions each. The questions are made so that the answers are in the same order as you hear them in the audio.
- The first two parts are about everyday situations. In Part 1, two people talk to each other (like talking about travel plans). In Part 2, one person speaks alone (like giving a speech about local places).
- The last two parts are about learning and education. In Part 3, two main speakers have a conversation (like students discussing something with a teacher). In Part 4, one person gives a talk about a school subject.
- You only hear the recordings once. They have different accents, like British, Australian, New Zealand, American, and Canadian.
- The test takes around 30 minutes, and you have 10 minutes to transfer your answers. There are 40 questions in total.
- You answer the questions on the question paper while you listen. Then, you transfer your answers to an answer sheet. It's important to write neatly and use good spelling and grammar.
- Each question is worth 1 mark.
Scores:
What does IELTS result tell about your English skill?
In the IELTS test, your results are given on a scale from 1 to 9. This scale helps to show your level of English skills.
Here is a simple explanation of each band score:
Band 9: You are an expert user of English. You speak fluently, and accurately, and understand everything well.
Band 8: You are a very good user. You have excellent English skills with only occasional small mistakes. You can handle complex topics.
Band 7: You are a good user. You have a good command of English, but sometimes make mistakes or misunderstand in some situations. You can handle difficult ideas.
Band 6: You are a competent user. You have effective English skills, but make some mistakes and misunderstandings. You can handle everyday situations and understand somewhat complex language.
Band 5: You are a modest user. You have some English knowledge and can communicate in basic situations, but you make many mistakes.
Band 4: You are a limited user. Your English skills are basic and you struggle with understanding and expressing yourself. You can only handle familiar situations.
Band 3: You are an extremely limited user. You can understand and speak in very basic situations but often have trouble communicating.
Band 2: You are an intermittent user. You find it very difficult to understand spoken and written English.
Band 1: You are a non-user. You can only understand a few isolated words and cannot use the language.
Band 0: You did not attempt the test and didn't answer any questions.
Remember, the higher the band score, the better your English skills are considered to be.
