What you practise
Every part of the test, the way it is set
Practise a part on its own with help on, or sit it under the real timing and rules.
- 01
Listening
Form, note, table and flow-chart completion, multiple choice, matching, map and plan labelling. Real recordings, one play in the test, replays while you practise.
- 02
Reading
True, false or not given, matching headings, sentence and summary completion, short answers. A reason for every wrong answer and the line in the passage that shows it.
- 03
Writing
Task 1 charts, maps and processes drawn natively, Task 2 essays in a focused editor. A band for Task Achievement or Response, Coherence and Cohesion, Lexical Resource, and Grammatical Range and Accuracy.
- 04
Speaking
Part 1 questions, the Part 2 cue card with a minute to prepare and two to speak, and the Part 3 discussion, with the examiner's voice. Fluency, vocabulary, grammar and pronunciation estimated after.
How FluentWin helps
Practice that knows where your marks go
01
A diagnostic first
A 54 minute check across all four skills sets your starting estimate, and your daily plan is built from it.
02
Lessons for every question type
How each type is built, the traps examiners set, and a step by step method, explained in your language.
03
Full tests under exam rules
Timed papers that keep the clock on the server, autosave as you go and hand in when time runs out.
04
A plan for the days you have
Set your target band and test date. Each day's plan picks what moves your weakest skill most.
Scores
Estimates you can trust
Every skill shows an estimate and the range it is likely to fall in, from your own practice. Your overall estimate appears once all four skills are measured.
These are estimates from practice, not official scores. Only the test owner issues an IELTS result.
Questions
IELTS with FluentWin
Does FluentWin cover IELTS General Training as well as Academic?
Yes. Choose your test when you set your goal. Listening and Speaking are shared; Reading and Writing Task 1 follow the test you chose.
How is my writing marked?
Against the four public IELTS criteria. You get a band for each, the reasons behind it with lines from your own essay, and a better version to compare.
Can I practise speaking without a partner?
Yes. The examiner asks the questions out loud, times your Part 2 talk and assesses your answers after the test ends, the way the real test is marked.
