DID YOU KNOW?

Is grammar important for IELTS? Of course!
There is no separate "grammar" section on the IELTS, but...

Grammar is assessed in:
• Writing (Task 1 & Task 2)
• Speaking

How it's checked:
• Examiners look at range and accuracy of grammar:
◦ Simple vs. complex sentence structures
◦ Verb tenses, articles, prepositions, agreement
◦ Error frequency and whether errors affect understanding
• Grammar is one of the 4 scoring criteria in Writing ("Grammatical Range and Accuracy").

This is why practicing grammar is still important for the IELTS, despite there being no direct multiple-choice grammar questions.
