1, IELTS: jointly managed by British Council for Cultural Education, Cambridge University Examinations Board and Australian Education International Development Agency (IDP).

2. TOEFL: managed by ETS.

Second, the examination structure is different.

1, IELTS:

Academic category (A): Listening, academic reading, academic writing, and oral English.

Training (g): Listening, reading, writing and speaking.

2. TOEFL: reading, listening, speaking and writing.

Third, the grading standards are different.

1, IELTS: fluency and coherence of language, change of vocabulary, richness of sentences and accuracy of grammar. The examiner of the IELTS pronunciation test scores according to these four standards, which are equally important.

2. TOEFL: Subjective questions are judged by the principle of overall score, which comprehensively and objectively evaluates the overall quality of oral and writing answers, rather than focusing on small mistakes and single weaknesses.

The focus of evaluation is whether candidates use the language they have mastered to effectively convey ideas and control the development process of ideas, rather than the development of words or words. A firm grasp of specific grammar points and the display of vocabulary are not the focus of evaluation.
