Free IELTS Resources in One Place

Preparing for IELTS doesn't have to mean searching dozens of websites for resources.

Official IELTS preparation resources include sample questions, practice tests, videos, courses, webinars, articles and apps.

The IELTS by IDP app also brings together preparation articles, videos, quizzes, podcasts, expert events and preparation resources in one mobile experience.

A useful preparation resource should help you do at least one of these things:

• Understand the IELTS test

• Learn how each skill is assessed

• Practice question types

• Identify mistakes

• Improve English skills

• Become familiar with test conditions

1. Official IELTS sample questions

Start with official sample materials.

They help you understand the types of tasks you may encounter and become familiar with the test format. IELTS provides sample materials for Academic and General Training.

2. IELTS preparation videos

Videos can be useful when you need an explanation of a particular part of the test. You can use them to learn about:

• Test format

• Writing preparation

• Speaking

• Listening

• Reading

• Test-day preparation

3. IELTS quizzes

Short quizzes are useful for testing your knowledge when you don't have time for a full practice session. The IELTS by IDP app includes quizzes as part of its preparation experience.

4. IELTS webinars and expert guidance

Expert-led webinars can help you understand preparation strategies and get advice about the test. Official IELTS preparation resources include webinars alongside courses, apps, videos and practice tests.

5. IELTS preparation courses

Courses can provide a more structured approach than studying individual resources. The IELTS by IDP app includes preparation courses from providers including Macquarie University, Cambridge and E2 IELTS Preparation, with availability and access conditions varying by course.

Don't collect resources without using them.

Instead, create a simple preparation system:

Step 1: Understand the test 

Step 2: Identify your weaker skills 

Step 3: Learn the relevant strategy 

Step 4: Practice 

Step 5: Review mistakes 

Step 6: Repeat

You can find official IELTS preparation resources through IELTS websites and official IELTS apps. The official IELTS preparation hub includes practice tests, courses, apps, webinars, videos and articles.

The IELTS by IDP app is another way to access preparation content on your phone.
