Is it better to send children to the United States to take TOEFL or IELTS?

At present, TOEFL is more targeted than IELTS and IELTS is more international. I have to say that there is still a big difference between the two.

A good English foundation is the key to getting high marks. (Of course, skill is also very important. )

Both are divided into four parts: listening, speaking, reading and writing. TOEFL is a computer test and IELTS is a written test.

The test order of TOEFL is: reading, listening and writing, and whether there is an extra test in each test; The order of IELTS test is: listening, reading and speaking, and the speaking part is not on the same day as the other three. ?

TOEFL is mainly aimed at studying abroad; IELTS has two exams: studying abroad (A) and immigration (G). TOEFL listening is divided into two parts, each part has 1 dialogue and 2 academic listening articles. The dialogue mainly involves the scenes of students' campus life, and the academic listening mainly involves listening to excerpts from university courses (about 6-8 minutes). If you don't count the listening test, you should listen to six jokes. I can't see the topic when I listen, and the answer time is 10 minutes.

IELTS listening is divided into four parts, ***4 paragraphs, from easy to difficult. The first two are life scenes, and the last two are academic scenes. In addition, the life and academic scene of IELTS listening is by no means limited to schools, which is very different from TOEFL. In addition, there are 30 seconds-1 minute in each part before IELTS listening.

The TOEFL reading articles are medium in length, and each 13- 15 question is a multiple-choice question, not counting three extra tests. IELTS reading articles are medium-long articles, each with different types of questions and diverse questions, with 3 articles. Say TOEFL to the computer, 6 questions, of which 3, 4, 5 and 6 questions will be answered after listening for a while.

IELTS speaking is divided into four parts, the topic is from easy to difficult, and the answer time is 1 1-25 minutes (depending on the examiner).

TOEFL writing is divided into two parts. The first part is comprehensive writing (listen to a piece of material, read a piece of material, and then write 250 words). The second part is independent writing (give a topic, more than 300 words). IELTS writing is divided into two parts, the first part is to look at the chart description (150), and the second part is to write for a given topic (more than 250).

If your child goes to America, I personally think it's better to take the TOEFL! If you say which training institution is good, you can Baidu about "Pony Crossing the River". Their TOEFL machine is very powerful in the industry! Very accurate! Wuhan also has a campus. Good luck!
