Why take it?"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>I&#039;ve heard of English language proficiency tests like TOEIC or TOEFL, but I don&#039;t know what IELTS is, what it can be used for, and who needs to take it.<\/p>\n<p>Today, Inlingua will answer 4 of the most popular questions about IELTS.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>1. What is IELTS?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>IELTS (International English Language Testing System) is an international English language test that meets international standards. While it may sound similar to TOEIC and TOELF, I must say that the test level is quite difficult and challenging. IELTS is accepted by 10,000 organizations worldwide, both public and private, as well as leading institutions in 140 countries, including Thailand.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>2. What is the exam like?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The test focuses on all four language skills: listening, speaking, reading, and writing. The test is available in both paper and computer-based formats. The test focuses on understanding communication from everyday situations, starting from easy to difficult, such as explanations, conversations, and question-and-answer sessions.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>3. Who has to take the exam?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The purpose of people taking the IELTS test is to study or work abroad at an institution that uses English, in order to certify their language ability.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>4. Do I have to pay any fees or where can I take the exam?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>This type of exam has no breaks and takes 3 hours to complete. Therefore, preparation for the exam is extremely important because the test is more difficult than other types of exams and the exam fee is high, starting at 6,000 baht and up. You can take the exam in Bangkok, Chiang Mai, Samut Prakan, Phuket, Phitsanulok, Khon Kaen, Hat Yai, and Phnom Penh.<\/p>\n<p>Now that you know this\u2026 anyone who is preparing to study or work abroad must prepare well from the beginning.<\/p>\n<p>But if you&#039;re looking for a consultant to guide you and tutor you for the IELTS exam, Inlingua is the place for you. We have a team of teachers with specific exam experience who will be your mentors.<\/p>\n<p>Click to inquire further at Click &gt;&gt; <a href=\"https:\/\/line.me\/ti\/p\/~@inlinguaThailand\">https:\/\/line.me\/ti\/p\/~@inlinguaThailand<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#039;ve heard of English language proficiency tests like TOEIC or TOEFL, but I don&#039;t know what IELTS is, what it can be used for, and who needs to take it.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":303,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_yoast_wpseo_meta-robots-noindex":"","_yoast_wpseo_meta-robots-nofollow":"","_yoast_wpseo_canonical":"","_yoast_wpseo_opengraph-title":"","_yoast_wpseo_opengraph-description":"","_yoast_wpseo_twitter-title":"","_yoast_wpseo_twitter-description":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[62],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-291","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-exam-prep"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.8 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>IELTS \u0e04\u0e37\u0e2d\u0e2d\u0e30\u0e44\u0e23?
