IELTS vs TOEFL - Which English Test Should You Take?

Many of you have asked me: "Which test should I take, the IELTS or the TOEFL?". I took both tests, the IELTS and the TOEFL. We look at all four parts of the tests and I tell you where they differ and where they are similar, so you can decide which test is best for you.


IELTS Listening vs TOEFL Listening

In IELTS Listening you listen to conversations and a talk or a lecture. The questions are a mix of fill-in-the-gap and multiple-choice questions.

In TOEFL Listening you listen to conversations and lectures. There are only multiple-choice questions, no fill-in-the-gap questions. The main difference between IELTS and TOEFL Listening is that in the TOEFL you first listen to the audio and then answer questions.

IELTS Reading and TOEFL Reading are quite similar. In both tests, you have to read several passages and you must answer several questions. Also, for both tests, you need a reading strategy to filter out the relevant information.

IELTS Speaking vs TOEFL Speaking

The IELTS Speaking test is face-to-face. In TOEFL Speaking you speak into the microphone of your computer. TOEFL Speaking is quite challenging because in some of the tasks you must read a passage and listen to the audio and then you need to combine this information and deliver your answer. Further, note-taking is quite challenging in TOEFL Speaking.
