#EndSARS: Why Having Your IELTS Is Not A Bad Idea

Hello Readers, while this is a very troubling state the Nigeria polity has found itself, we are still looking at the important factors the youths of the Nigerian Nation should consider looking into. Just few weeks ago, the #EndSARS peaceful protests was kicked off by musicians – Falz and Runtown of which the main converge point was the Lekki – VI Tollgate in Lagos. Two weeks down the line, violence has erupted, thuggery and looting has been on the increase and more.

While many have lost their lives (May Their Souls Rest In Peace) to these various protests around the nation which will not be forgotten, it is time the rest of the youths begin putting together very important documents together should incase their pleas and demands are not acted upon swiftly.

It is very IMPORTANT that we arm ourselves with our Personal Voters Cards, International Passports and also take our IELTS tests with successful results. We will get to discuss the other two some other time but IELTS at this point is very crucial for those who will want to consider going to get an education outside this country (study abroad) or maybe relocate for other resaons (migration to Canada, etc).

The International English Language Testing System (IELTS) measures the language proficiency of people who want to study or work where English is used as a language of communication. It uses a nine-band scale to clearly identify levels of proficiency, from non-user (band score 1) through to expert (band score 9).

The IELTS test assesses your abilities in listening, reading, writing and speaking – in less than three hours.

There are two types of IELTS:  Academic and General Training. Listening and Speaking are the same for both tests, but the subject matter of the Reading and Writing sections differs depending on which test you take.

The Listening, Reading and Writing sections of all IELTS tests are completed on the same day, with no breaks in between them.

The Speaking section, however, can be completed up to a week before or after the other tests. Your test centre will advise.

The total test time is 2 hours and 45 minutes.

While there is so much to discuss about the IELTS tests, we cannot say it all here. We however at TGM Education is offering the masses a very massive discount towards training those who are interested in taking their IELTS exams. In addition to that, TGM Education are official partners with British Council and can help pick a date that is most favourable to you so you write your tests at your convenience.

We will forever be indebted as a nation to those who lost their lives in these peaceful protests especially at the Lekki tollgate massacre.
