Concept explanation

IELTS is an English test. It checks four skills: listening, reading, writing, and speaking.

A test part means one part of the test. IELTS has four test parts: Listening, Reading, Writing, and Speaking.

  • Listening: you hear English and answer questions.
  • Reading: you read texts and answer questions.
  • Writing: you write answers to tasks.
  • Speaking: you answer questions aloud.

Task

Write one sentence in My Notes. Use this frame if you need help:

I am studying IELTS because ___.

Keep it simple. One reason is enough.
