Where is your speaking, honestly?

Ten questions against the real IELTS band descriptors. You get an estimated range, the criterion most likely capping you, and the speaking prompt to record first.

Takes about 2 minutes · no card required

This is an estimate, not a score. It is built from self-report answers, and self-report is imperfect. Only a trained examiner scoring a real speaking sample can give you a band. We will never present an estimate as a guarantee, and neither should any tutor.

The speaking prompt to record first

Part 2 — cue card. 1 minute to prepare, 2 minutes to speak.

Describe a skill you learned later in life that changed how you work.

what the skill was
why you learned it when you did
how you learned it
and explain how it changed the way you work

Record it on your phone. Listen back and count how many times you reuse the question's own words. Bring the recording to your free trial — it is the fastest way to get a real diagnosis.
