How it works
A complete practice loop. Built for your target band.
Start with real IELTS practice, get clear feedback, track what changes, and keep improving your English until your score is ready.
Test prep modes
Practise the whole exam. Or fix one weak spot.
Choose a full mock, a single skill test, or a focused question-type drill. Each mode keeps you close to the computer-based IELTS experience.
Take a full timed mock test to build the focus and timing you need on test day.
Choose Reading, Listening, Writing, or Speaking when one skill needs extra work.
Writing test
Drill maps, matching headings, gap fills, Task 1 charts, cue cards, and more without taking a full test.
Question type drill

FAQ
Honest answers.
Is this for IELTS Academic or General Training? +
IELTS Studio supports the core practice loop for both Academic and General Training. Some screens and examples currently lean Academic because that is the largest audience, but the product is built around the same IELTS skills: Listening, Reading, Writing, Speaking, vocabulary, and feedback.
What can I practise inside IELTS Studio? +
You can take full mocks, practise individual skills, drill specific question types, review feedback, track progress, and build vocabulary with spaced repetition. The goal is to give you a complete practice loop, not just another question bank.
Should I use official tests or Explore? +
Use official-style tests for mocks and serious exam practice. Use Explore for everyday practice from real English sources: articles, YouTube videos, podcasts, and other material you want to turn into IELTS-style quizzes, writing prompts, speaking practice, and vocabulary.
How does feedback work? +
Writing and Speaking feedback is organised around IELTS-style criteria, so you can see the score, the weak area, and what to fix. Reading and Listening review explains wrong answers, evidence, traps, and the question types that need more practice.
Does it help with vocabulary? +
Yes. You can save useful words into vocabulary banks, practise them with spaced repetition, and write your own sentences so you learn to use words in Writing and Speaking instead of only recognising them.
Can I track my progress? +
Yes. The dashboard is designed to show your recent activity, strengths, weaknesses, weak question types, vocabulary due for review, and a suggested weekly study plan based on your target band.
Is it really free? +
During beta, yes. No card needed. When paid plans launch, beta users will get a launch discount.
How is this different from books, YouTube, or random IELTS websites? +
Books and videos can be useful, but they usually leave you to decide what to do next. IELTS Studio combines practice, feedback, progress tracking, drills, Explore, and vocabulary review so every session leads to the next useful action.
Will my essays be used to train AI? +
No. Your essays, answers, and imported materials are used to provide your practice experience and feedback. They are not used to train AI models.
What devices does it work on? +
Any modern browser. Test-taking views work best on desktop or laptop because that matches computer-delivered IELTS. Vocabulary, dashboard, review, and lighter study flows are more comfortable on mobile.
How long does it take to go from 6.0 to 7.5? +
It depends on your current level, study time, and how consistently you act on feedback. IELTS Studio cannot promise a score increase, but it can make your practice more focused by showing what is weak and what to practise next.
Your target band is closer than you think.
