    I have learned about TOEFL's rules and many methods to learn English in Week1.

    And the differences between TOEFL and IELTS,I think,includes three aspects mainly.

    Firstly,they have different Subject bodies. Whlie IELTS is given by The British Council, CUCLES,and IDP Education Australia, TOEFL is given by ETS.

    Secondly, their cultures are also different. IELTS involves more culture and geography of England and Australia. However, TOEFL has more cultures and history of America.

    Last but not the least,the purpose of their marks are different, too. IELTS have two types,while A for study and G for immigrant.But TOEFL's store can be used for study abroad only.

    Here's my opinoin about the differences between TOEFL and IELTS.If there are any problems,welcome to correct me.

    During all my past life I know more about the TOEFL. As for the IELT,I almost know nothing about it. According to the Baidu,I have a sketchy knowledge about all of two. TOEFL can be only accepted by the USA,and IELTS can be accepted by the UK and other countries which used to belong to the UK. 

    TOEFL can be only used in study abroad,and the IELTS can be used in immigrant.

    I have learned about some TOEFL fundamental rules.What's more. The test includes reading,speaking,listening and writing, it will take you approximate 3.50 hours to finish all the examination. Different from IELTS,TOEFL in the use of CBT. Moreover, the full mark of TOEFL is 120, and of IELTS is nine.

    At the same time, I get many stimulant words from well-known public figures. What impress me most is that, a lady said,'having strong skills in English is going to enable you to become a part of the university community, and engage actively with your teachers.' Making yourself master of English, equal to exchange your views with all the world.

    Through the first week of study. I learnt about the regulation of TOFEL and knew how to prepare for the TOFEL test.

    After searching the Internet. There are many differences between TOFEL and IELTS. For example,TOFEL is mainly applicable to study abroad applications in North America and Canada.IELTS is mainly applicable to application for study abroad in the Commonwealth. IELTS writing, listening and reading are all written tests. Oral tests are for real examiners. TOEFL uses computer to test all along.

    I have leraned that if we want to go aborad ,we must learn English well, especially the IELTS and TOEFL,which are both attached much attention when we are applying for a certificate of going abroad or even get a job there.

    After searching information from the internet,I find some difference between them.The IELTS mainly helps us get more abilities to live abroad better,so what it's looking at is about life and application more.However, TOEFL inspects points related to skills and nomativity more.But they are both more difficult than CET4 and CET6,therefofe,if we want to get access to go abroad,there are still many problems to be settled and much knowledge to learn.

    I am not so certain about which test should I take, TOFEL or IELTS. But through this course, I finally understand that it depends on the school I choose. For me, I reckon that the for the reading part, TOFEL is more academic than IELTS, for the listening part it is the opposite. The speaking part differs in the object you speak to. In TOFEL you speak to an individual, but in IELTS you speak to a computer. In the writing part, it is difficult for test takers to get high score in IELTS tests, however in TOFEL tests it is relatively easier.

           That’s all. Thank you for your reading from the bottom of my heart.

    I have learned something about the plans of this term,academic record's distribution and several important English examinations.But which touched me most was my poor CET-4 grades.I know I should try harder to catch up with my superior classmates.

    Following is my perspective about the differences between TOEFL and IELTS.Firstly,their testing ways are totally different.TOEFL is computer examination while IELTS is written examination.In my opinion,written examination is more suitable for Chinese students.By the way,TOEFL oral test is speak to the examiner but IELTS oral test is speak to the computer.Secondly,their testing time is different.IEFLS costs 2 hours and 45 minutes while TOEFL costs 4 hours.Thirdly,their full marks is different.IELTS full marks is 9 points and more than 7 points is a good score.TOEFL full marks is 120 points and more than 100 points is outstanding.

    I have learned that passing TOEFL is of great importance to study abroad,but what matters most is the English skills itself.Therefoer what we should do is not focusing on how to get higher scores but pay attention to improving our English and make ourselves master of it.I have also some basic information of TOFEL,for example there are four sections in it —listening、reading 、speaking and writing.Moreover I have known how each section is composed and the scores of them.I have also learned the procedure of the content.

    There're many differences between them.TOFEL is more close to our daily lives while IELTS is more academic in the listenling section.When it comes to reading,TOFEL is mostly about science and IELTS covers all kinds of topics.They‘re also different in speaking section,TOFEL requires its participants to speak with each other while IELTS requires you to talk with robot.

    During reading the introductions about TOFEL, which impressed me most is the long testing time and the wideness of the topic range. One thing that I have to put all my heart into TOFEL learning if I want to apply for a foreign university is for sure.

    As far as I am concerned, the prime difference is: IElTS often select topics involved in schools, hospitals, banks and stadiums, which are more likely to connect with our daily life. However, the TOFEL contains more in science, biology and sociology

    The second difference is in the speaking part: In TOFEL test, you require to answer the questions that have been put into the web. On the coutrary, the real people you will face with in IELTS.

    The first difference is that IELTS is held by The British Council, CUCLES, and IDP Education Australia, but TOEFL is given by ETS.

    The second is IELTS is man-machine interaction, but TOEFL is man-man interaction when testing speaking.

    The third is IELTS total score is 9,TOEFL iBT is 120.

    I have learned so many from week one . Because I haven't acqualntanced anything about TOEFL and IELTS . After learning these things , my enthusiasm for learning English is stronger .In my opinion , there are two  main differences between TOEFL and IELTS . Firstly , different countries apply to them . IELTS is mainly suitable for countries such as the Commonwealth and Australia, while TOEFL is suitable for countries in North America . Last but not least , their examination format . IELTS is a form of written examination and interview, and the oral part is directly communicated with the examiner face to face. TOEFL is a computer test mode, including listening, reading, writing, and even speaking.

    First, the content of IELTS is more academic, while the TOEFL is more related to life .

    Second, TOEFL focuses on listening and speaking ,and  IELTS pays more attention to writing.

    Third, the full mark of  TOEFL is 120 ,but the IELTS's  is 9.
