Write. Submit. Get a band score for each criterion. See what to fix. Improve. Repeat.

📝

Task 1 — Reports & Letters

Academic: describe charts, graphs, tables, and diagrams. General Training: write formal, semi-formal, and informal letters. Scored on task achievement, data coverage, and tone appropriateness.

📄

Task 2 — Essays

Opinion, discussion, problem-solution, advantage-disadvantage essays. Scored on argument development, paragraph structure, and use of evidence — the skills that separate Band 6.5 from Band 7+.

📊

Four Criteria. Four Scores.

Task Achievement, Coherence & Cohesion, Lexical Resource, Grammatical Range & Accuracy. Each score comes with a specific explanation of what you did well and what's holding you back.

Common Questions

How does the scoring work?
Essays are evaluated against official IELTS band descriptors — the exact same rubric human examiners use. A specialized evaluation model scores each of the four criteria separately and explains why you received each score.
How accurate is it compared to a human examiner?
Scores align closely with examiner standards. The advantage is speed and detail — you get actionable feedback in seconds, not days. We recommend one officially scored practice test before your exam to confirm your level.
Can this help me improve from Band 6 to Band 7?
That's the exact gap this is designed for. Band 7 requires improvements in argument development, vocabulary precision, and grammar accuracy. The Writing Lab identifies these gaps clearly and tracks whether you're closing them.
Does it cover both Academic and General Training?
Yes. Academic gets Task 1 reports (charts, graphs, diagrams) and Task 2 essays. General Training gets Task 1 letters and Task 2 essays. You choose your test type during setup.
