The IELTS Test Format.
The IELTS test has four sections: listening, reading, writing and speaking. You will get a different score from each section, and the maximum score you can get for each section is 9. In the end, you will get an overall score which will be calculated depending on your performance on each section. Again, the maximum overall score you can get is 9.

We know that the name of our school is kind of tricky: Eszett, being our commercial name Eszett Business Language Services. Many people spell it wrong. Sometimes they write Eszet, other times Ezsett, Etzett or even Ezzett. The origin of Eszett is the German letter Eszett (ß), which is the equivalent of a double ‘s’. Eszett’s worldwide headquarters are in Germany (Wolfsburg).
The landscape of my garden of languages was designed during early childhood. The focal fountain, from which I would forever be nurtured, loved & comforted by, is Spanish. As the language of my heritage, it stood to reason that it be the one at the center of my jardín.

My mantra, which applies both in business and in my personal life, is to constantly think about what the person in front of me thinks and what their needs and desires are. Listening attentively to all information provided at all times is essential to helping me make decisions in life.
Online teaching tips for teachers
Please find below some tips to improve the quality of virtual language lessons:
Languages.... so interesting and mysterious... always have been for me
I am one of those 'language nerds' who could do the grammar or vocabulary exercises just to kill time. Somehow, I always knew I would study languages but wasn't sure which one exactly for some time.
English teacher in focus
English Teacher: Alexandre Duarte
Teaches and translates: Portuguese, Spanish and English
Lives: São Paulo, Brazil
Loves: Basketball, live music, BBQ
Since the age of 16, I have been travelling to Spain alone to visit my (now) husband and his family. I am British native, and was notoriously disastrous with languages at this time, just about getting by in Spanish at school, understanding ‘chicle en la basura’ more than anything else.
No doubt that learning a language online is becoming very popular. Eszett uses its own virtual classroom to teach languages online.
The future is the 3D virtual classroom for online lessons. The idea of learning by doing is not a new approach: it is proved that people remember 90% of what they do and only 30% of what they see. Moreover, it already demonstrated its usefulness and effectivity in all kinds of subject and topics. Therefore, it is now time to blend the learning by doing approach with modern technological devices. With the new 3D technology, we can do anything, even to create, build or make experiments in a safe environment. It should not come as a surprise that it is a popular method in language learning as well.
This article analyses the way Relocation Management Companies (RMCs) and Destination Servive Providers (DSPs) utilize technology to get updated and update their customers from the field in real time, when providing destination services. Many relocation companies may declare that they already provide all the details in real time, but do they take advantage of the technology? Do they use applications to report from the field? After discussing with many senior managers of different RMCs and DSPs around the globe, I came to the conclusion that the relocation sector is behind other sectors in terms of utilization of technology.
Successful language training often helps employees determine if they can easily accept a global assignment. Many transferees may have a commanding grasp of several languages. Language proficiency and other professional skills often prepare them well for work in a new location. However, their family members may not be as proficient in multiple languages. The prospect of relocating to a destination where language may become a barrier can be daunting.
Eszett attended the biggest Relocation conference - Worldwide ERC
From 27th-29th September, I traveled to the 'Windy City', Chicago to attend the ERC. Although attending similar events in the past, this was my first ERC, and what an event! Every thirty minutes hundreds of Relocation executives would gather to search for their next meeting. Faces become obsolete and to take their place is the badge. The ERC was a fantastic opportunity to catch up with current partners, meet with many potential clients, and network with others who work in this sector. From the event, we hope to strengthen relationships with Relocation Management Companies (RMCs), Destination Service Providers (DSPs) and final customers requiring in-company language training services.
