Which paragraph introduces the coral-loss question?

B Warming oceans drive mass bleaching — by 2050, projections suggest 90% of reefs are at risk of collapse.
Correct. Paragraph B introduces the question — the match is semantic, not lexical. The word “cause” never appears.

Built by examiners. Engineered by AI.

The problem

IELTS prep shouldn’t feel like guesswork.

You’ve booked the exam. You’ve downloaded sample papers. You’ve watched hours of YouTube tips. But you still don’t know:

What band you'd score right now

Which specific sub-skills are dragging you down

Whether you're spending time on the right things

If you'll actually be ready in time

Most IELTS prep gives you content. IELTSMIND gives you a system — diagnose, target, track, adapt.

The library

Question types test skills. We teach them.

Drilling past papers trains your test-taking. Training the underlying sub-skills trains your band. Today that means a growing library of skill-targeted Writing lessons — with Reading and Listening next, and Speaking to follow.

How it works

From “I don’t know where I stand” to “I know exactly what to do.”

Three steps. The same structure a private tutor would give you.

Step 01 · Diagnose

Take the baseline

A focused Writing diagnostic — a snapshot, not a full exam mock — scored by AI against the four official IELTS criteria, with band-level sub-skill breakdown. Reading and Listening diagnostics are next.

Step 02 · Target

A learning path, drawn from the library

Tell us your exam date, target band, and weekly hours. We assemble a day-by-day path from our library of skill-targeted lessons — sequenced around the sub-skills dragging your score the most. Not a generic syllabus; a route designed for your gaps.

Practice, feedback, progress

Each day, the next lesson on your path. Your writing gets AI feedback in seconds — rubric-aligned, specific, actionable. Watch your sub-skill scores move as you work through the library.

Why it works

The structure of a private tutor. The speed of AI.

Every lesson follows a clear pedagogical arc — not a pile of questions, but a sequence that mirrors how good teachers actually teach.

  • 01 Present — see the skill in action: a worked model with the examiner-relevant moves made visible.
  • 02 Practice — apply it yourself in focused exercises, with specific feedback.
  • 03 Produce — write your own response and get AI feedback against the band descriptors.

Produce

One arc, every lesson. Every Writing lesson in the library follows the same Present → Practice → Produce cycle — a consistent shell, progress strip, and pedagogical order, so you always know where you are and what comes next. Reading and Listening lessons will follow the same arc.

Everything in the box

Know exactly what to fix. See it move.

Five systems working together. No decision fatigue. No wasted sessions.

Know exactly what to fix

Your writing scored against the same criteria real examiners use — Task Response, Coherence, Lexical, Grammar. Specific and actionable.

Task Response 7.0
Coherence & Cohesion 5.5 decreasing
Lexical Resource 6.5
Grammar Range & Accuracy 6.5 increasing

FAQ

Questions, answered.

Everything you need to know before taking the baseline.

How accurate is the band estimate?
Your Writing diagnosis is scored by AI against the official IELTS band descriptors — the same four criteria real examiners mark against. It’s not a guarantee, but it’s the most informed estimate you’ll get without sitting the real test. Writing is the only AI-scored skill today; Reading and Listening diagnostics are next, and Speaking is coming soon.
Is this really free?
Yes. Everything is free while IELTSMIND is in beta — the Writing diagnosis, your study plan, and the full lesson library. No credit card, no trial clock. When paid plans arrive we’ll say so clearly before anything changes.
How is this different from other IELTS apps?
Most apps give you practice questions. IELTSMIND gives you a diagnostic, a targeted plan, and progress tracking that adapts as you improve — the same structure a private tutor would provide, at a fraction of the cost. You always know where you stand, what to work on, and whether you’re on track for your exam date.
Can I use this alongside a tutor or course?
Yes. Many learners use IELTSMIND to track progress and fill gaps between tutor sessions. Share your progress dashboard with your tutor so they can see exactly where you need help.
What IELTS module does this cover?
IELTSMIND currently covers IELTS Academic. Support for IELTS General Training is planned — we’ll let you know when it ships.
How long should I study before my exam?
Most learners see meaningful improvement in 4–8 weeks of consistent daily practice. Your plan adapts to whatever time you have — even 30 minutes a day makes a difference. The key is consistency, not volume.
My exam is in 2 weeks. Is that enough time?
It depends on how far you are from your target. Take the baseline — you’ll know immediately whether your goal is realistic or whether you should consider rescheduling. Honest data beats hopeful guessing.
Your exam date is fixed

Every day without a plan is a day wasted.

Take 20 minutes to find out where you stand and get a study plan that targets exactly what you need to improve.
