Image Don't memorise answers    

It's common for interviewees to prepare answers in advance but there are things that you should avoid doing.

Image Don't get over-emotional    

It's good to express your emotions but don't lose control!

Image Not a job interview    

IELTS interview is different from a job interview. Be sure to showcase your English ability, not your job qualification.

Image Tell the truth    

It might be better to express a negative opinion if that gives you more to say.

Image Develop What You Say    

Even if you are asked what seems like a yes–no question, you are expected to say more.

IELTS Mock Papers

Online English tests are fun and can give an indication of your ability. When you finish each of these exercises, you can check which questions you got right. Any score you get does not correspond to an IELTS band.

To get a more accurate measure of your language level you will need a thorough test in a controlled environment. You may like to find out more about getting a certificate to demonstrate your language skills at our exams information page or by speaking to your nearest British Council office.
