IELTS, TOEFL, or Duolingo: How to Choose Based on Target Country, University, and Purpose
Choose the right English test based on your purpose: for degree programs, check which tests your target universities accept; for Canadian post-graduation work permits and immigration, only IELTS General Training, CELPIP-General, PTE Core, and French TEF/TCF are accepted—IELTS Academic is not included. This article summarizes official information and provides a scenario comparison chart to help parents avoid taking the wrong test.
IELTS in Mainland China Fully Transitions to Computer-Delivered Format: Test Day Procedures, Score Release Times, and One Skill Retake
Starting September 1, 2026, both the IELTS and IELTS for UKVI in mainland China will be fully computer-delivered; the latter has already suspended paper-based testing since July 1.

How to practice for the IELTS Speaking test: How to answer the three parts and improve step by step against the four official scoring criteria.
Based on the IELTS official speaking test guidelines and the official "Key Criteria for Speaking," this article breaks down what is tested and how to answer in each of the three parts of the 11–14 minute speaking test, including how to use the one-minute preparation time in Part 2. It details the specific indicators for the four criteria—Fluency and Coherence, Lexical Resource, Grammatical Range and Accuracy, and Pronunciation (such as speech rate, cohesion, collocations, paraphrasing, error density, chunking, and intelligibility)—along with corresponding practice methods. It also highlights four common misconceptions: memorizing scripts, overusing advanced vocabulary, speaking too fast, and mimicking accents, and includes a four-week practice plan.
How to practice for IELTS Reading: first master the official question type rules, then practice locating and answering for each of the 11 question types individually.
Based on the official IELTS website, this guide explains that the Academic Reading test is 60 minutes long, features 3 parts and 40 questions, contains 2,150–2,750 words, and provides definitions for technical terms, while the General Training test covers everyday, workplace, and general interest topics across its three parts. It outlines three official rules: multiple choice, sentence completion, and short answer questions follow the text order; completion and short answer questions require exact words from the text; and exceeding the word limit results in no marks. It also covers what to expect and how to practice the 11 question types; practicing skimming, scanning, and intensive reading separately; building paraphrasing skills from past papers; and specific practice focuses for bands 5.5, 6–6.5, and 7+.
How to practice for IELTS Listening: practice each of the four parts and six question types individually, and do intensive listening for Parts 3 and 4.
Based on the official IELTS website, this guide explains that the Listening test is about 30 minutes long, features 4 parts and 40 questions, plays the audio only once, follows the audio sequence for question order, and includes British, Australian, New Zealand, and North American accents. It breaks down the scenarios and practice focus for each of the four parts; what to expect and how to tackle the six question types (multiple choice, matching, map labeling, various completion tasks, sentence completion, and short answer); how to maximize reading time; four practice methods (intensive listening, scenario vocabulary, paraphrasing, and multiple accents); and specific practice focuses for three starting bands: 5.5, 6–6.5, and 7+.

IELTS Writing Task 2 is weighted twice as much as Task 1; whether you score a 5 or a 7 in Task 1 almost entirely depends on including a clear overview. This article breaks down the official writing band descriptors (May 2023 version) item by item, turning each requirement into specific practice tasks, and provides a structured workflow for self-assessment and rewriting.
