To help more people succeed, IDP Education relaunched its IELTS Prep Hub this week – adding new resources and tools available on IDP’s global IELTS website and across all 69 country-specific websites. 

A highlight of the update is a new seven-part IELTS Writing video series clearly explains how this part of the test is scored, giving candidates valuable insights to improve their performance. IDP has also refreshed its expert-led articles and videos for all four test areas — Listening, Reading, Writing, and Speaking — to make sure preparation aligns closely with the current IELTS test standards. 

The popular IELTS Prepare podcast series, previously available only on the IELTS mobile app, is now accessible directly from a web browser. Test takers can listen conveniently wherever they are, fitting preparation into their daily routine. 

Additionally, the Prep Hub now features improved navigation, making it quicker for candidates to find exactly what they need. 

IDP has also launched the IELTS Community, a brand-new space where candidates can directly ask IELTS experts their questions. This helps test takers avoid confusion caused by myths and unreliable information found elsewhere. 

“At IELTS, we know our test takers aren't just preparing for a test — they’re preparing to change their lives. Whether it’s studying overseas, starting a new career, or building a better future, we’re here to help make their dreams achievable,” said Neil Pearson, Chief Digital Officer at IDP.  

“With the new and improved Prep Hub and the launch of our IELTS Community, we've made it even easier for candidates to access reliable, straightforward support exactly when they need it most.” 

The IELTS Community is easy to find under the “Community” tab on IDP’s IELTS country websites and integrates seamlessly with the IELTS Prep Hub. It’s also available on the IDP IELTS app via the homepage.  

Additional improvements, with more expert insights and interactive features are scheduled to roll out in the coming months, further supporting IELTS candidates around the world.
