What is Oxford ELLT Global?
Oxford ELLT Global is our fully online English Language Level Test redesigned to be administered in just one sitting. Oxford ELLT Global maintains our stringent security measures and protocols but offers an additional layer of confidence from in-person testing. Each approved Oxford ELLT Global Test Centre conducts initial security checks and invigilates the test environment, with the highly secure Oxford ELLT portal conducting the examination.
What is the difference between Oxford ELLT and Oxford ELLT Global?
While Oxford ELLT and Oxford ELLT Global are both conducted online via the Oxford ELLT Portal, similar in their structure, interactions with live examiners and advanced security system, Oxford ELLT is administered online from the comfort of students’ homes. Each test component can be taken individually, and once completed; students can book their speaking assessment for a time that suits them best (according to examiner availability).
However, Oxford ELLT Global test components are completed in just one sitting at the approved OIDI Test Centre. Students will complete their writing component first, followed by their automated reading and listening components. During the student’s reading and listening sections, a qualified Oxford ELLT examiner will mark the candidate’s writing component with the same examiner to complete the speaking examination with the student. Throughout the test, the Oxford ELLT portal implements a range of sophisticated AI proctoring and security measures to ensure the student’s results accurately reflect their abilities.
