For IELTS marking, the criteria include:

1. Task Response: This criterion assesses whether the candidate has provided a response to all parts of the task and if their response is relevant to the question or prompt. The response should demonstrate an appropriate level of effort and engagement with the task requirements.
2. Coherence and Cohesion: This criterion evaluates the clarity, logic, and flow of ideas in the candidate's response. It considers whether the ideas are well-organized, logically connected, and supported by appropriate examples or explanations.
3. Lexical Resource: This criterion assesses the candidate's vocabulary, including word choice, range, accuracy, and appropriateness for the context. It also evaluates the use of idiomatic expressions, collocations, and fixed phrases.
4. Grammatical Range and Accuracy: This criterion examines the candidate's grammar, including sentence structure, punctuation, spelling, and the correct use of tenses and verb forms. It also considers the overall accuracy and consistency of the grammar throughout the response.
5. Pronunciation: For spoken English tests, this criterion evaluates the candidate's pronunciation of individual sounds, stress patterns, intonation, and rhythm. It also assesses their ability to produce a range of sounds and maintain clarity in their speech.
6. Interaction and Collaboration: For tasks requiring interaction with other participants (e.g., group discussions or presentations), this criterion evaluates the candidate's ability to engage effectively with others, contribute ideas, listen actively, and respond appropriately to feedback or questions from others.
