Hello,

One the most general tips for the preparation of both tests would be to go for a structured approach and understand the format of the tests respectively and work on improving grammar, vocabulary and pronunciation along with it take regular tests and reviews them. Both have 4 section, Reading, Listening, Writing and Speaking, so all four must be kept in focus, and thus you must plan your time according to your needs and areas of improvement.

Now, for TOEFL, it's recommended to use resources from ETS, that is, official materials and tests.

For IELTS, it's recommended to use resources from IDP, British Council and Cambridge, that give you sample tests and questions.

Wishing an all the very best for the test.

Hello,

Understand the format of TOEFL and IELTS . Both test for Reading, Listening, Speaking, and Writing skills. TOEFL focuses on North American English and is computer-based, while IELTS offers Academic and General options with paper-based or computer-based formats.

Evaluate your strengths with a diagnostic test. Identify weaker areas and develop a focused study plan. For Reading, practice skimming and main ideas. Improve your Listening by exposing yourself to diverse accents and note-taking techniques. For Writing, practice essay structures and time management. In Speaking, clarity, fluency, and pronunciation must be improved.

Use official prep materials, online resources, or join preparation classes. Regularly attempt mock tests to track progress. Familiarize yourself with test-day conditions and strategies like time allocation. Consistency and practice are key to achieving your target score.
