A brief introduction to IELTS

IELTS stands for International English Language Testing System. It is an English language proficiency exam which measures the ability of test-takers to communicate in the four basic language skills: listening, reading, writing, and speaking.
The IELTS is managed by three main institutions: the British Council, IDP: IELTS Australia and the University of Cambridge ESOL Examinations (Cambridge ESOL). This is important to understand in order to prepare for what is essentially an examination of British and not American English.
Many students who have prepared for or appeared for the TOEFL iBT are surprised when they face difficulties understanding accents and expressions used by British speakers in the IELTS. This is why thorough preparation, at a language school or through self-study, is so essential for success in this exam.
There are two versions of the IELTS exam: general and academic. Test-takers must know in advance which one is needed for their purposes as the scores are not interchangeable. Each test lasts two hours and forty-five minutes. Test takers are required to pay a fee for administration of the exam.
Broadly speaking, the IELTS is taken by those who wish to study, live, or work in a country where English is the primary language of communication. Specifically, the test is taken by three main categories of people:
  • Those who want to study in an English-medium school, college, or university in the United States, Canada, United Kingdom, South Africa, Australia, or New Zealand
  • Those who wish to apply for immigration to countries such as Canada, Australia, or New Zealand
  • Those who need to demonstrate their English proficiency to meet the requirements of professional associations or regulatory bodies in various countries
The IELTS has existed since 1989. Today, over 700,000 people from over 120 countries appear for this exam every year.

English Grammar(Tenses)

Goal of our ABKO academy is to teach students English in easiest and simplest way ever and help them learn, improve and master the English language as well as to build confidence while speaking in English with proper English grammar.

By ABHINAV KOYALE

We have been learning English from our childhood. The problem is, we have never tried to speak in English.

 

While learning Marathi, we used to listen our parents when we were kids. Whatever we were listening, we tried to speak. Then after taking admission in school, we started reading books and writing exams.

But while learning English, we used to listen our teacher in English, then we started reading books of Grammar(noun, adjective and all…), then we started writing exams but we never tried to speak in English.

 

So we strongly believe that speaking is the only way to improve English.

 

Goal of our ABKO academy is to teach students English in easiest and simplest way ever and help them learn, improve and master the English language as well as to build confidence while speaking in English.

Keeping this objective in mind, Dr. Abhinav Koyale started this academy in 2008 with the help of few co-founders Dr. Vijay Salvi, Mr. Amol Inamdar, Mr. Madhav More,  Mrs. Sheetal Jadhav, Mrs. Sunita Prakash. We have 9 branches in Pune & 5 Outside Pune. We have 4.9 google rating for all branches. This institute is a government authorized and ISO 9001:2015 certified.

 

Although, an attempt has been made, the first version cannot demand totally flawless. Undoubtedly, there may be a scope of improvement, and any constructive suggestion send at [email protected] would be heartily considered.

“we strongly believe that speaking is the only way to improve English.”
