TOEFL vs IELTS: Common Questions
Which is easier: TOEFL or IELTS Speaking?
IELTS Speaking is face-to-face and more conversational. TOEFL is computer-based with strict timing and integrated tasks. Students comfortable with technology often prefer TOEFL. Those who like human interaction choose IELTS. We offer both - try each to see what works for you.
Can I prepare for TOEFL in 2 weeks?
If you're already at 20-23 points, yes. Our intensive 2-week plan focuses on test strategy and timing. If you're below 20, plan for 4-6 weeks. Also consider other English tests with later deadlines if time is tight.
Do all US universities require TOEFL?
No. Most accept TOEFL, IELTS, or Duolingo English Test. Some accept Cambridge CAE. Check our US university requirements guide for specific schools. Many now prefer TOEFL for STEM programs due to academic focus.
How is LearnLingo different from other TOEFL apps?
We focus exclusively on speaking with AI that mimics ETS grading. Unlike apps with multiple choice or vocabulary drills, we simulate the exact test experience. Perfect after mastering general English but needing academic practice.
