Similar in scope to the TOEFL, the IELTS assesses reading, listening, writing, and speaking skills. At Lingva Pro, our IELTS preparation courses give you the targeted practice and strategies you need to reach your goal score.
Two Types of IELTS
There are two types of IELTS: IELTS Academic (for University admission and professional registration) and IELTS General Training (for migration and work experience). The Listening and Speaking sections are the same for both, but the Reading and Writing tasks differ.
The Listening, Reading, and Writing sections are completed on the same day with no breaks between them. The Speaking component can be scheduled up to a week before or after the written test. Paper-based IELTS is being phased out worldwide from mid-2026, and the test is moving to computer delivery.
Total test time is approximately 2 hours and 45 minutes.
