IELTS Academic & General

IELTS Preparation: Free Tests & AI Feedback

Get ready for the IELTS with full-length practice tests, AI-graded Writing and Speaking evaluation, and a vocabulary engine that targets the band score you actually need. No generic drills — every session adapts to your weakest skill.

All Four Skills

Practice Every IELTS Section

IELTS Listening

Forty questions across four recordings covering conversations and academic lectures. Our practice set mirrors the real exam tempo, with native speakers from the UK, Australia, Canada, and the US.

IELTS Reading

Three passages with forty questions. Academic uses journal-style texts; General Training uses workplace and everyday materials. Filter by difficulty and question type to drill True/False/Not Given, matching headings, and sentence completion.

IELTS Writing

Task 1 (150 words, 20 minutes) and Task 2 (250 words, 40 minutes). Submit any essay to our AI for band-level feedback with specific rewrites — grammar, lexical range, coherence, and task response are scored separately.

IELTS Speaking

Three parts: introduction, long turn cue card, and discussion. Record your answers and get pronunciation scoring, fluency analysis, and example Band 8 model responses for every topic.

Why NEU Study

Built for Band 7+ Targets

Most IELTS tools throw generic drills at you. We use your actual mistakes to build a personalized study plan that compounds over time.

AI Writing grading that matches real band descriptors

Every essay is scored on the four official criteria with specific sentence-level rewrites — not a generic "make it clearer" hint.

Pronunciation scoring at the phoneme level

Speaking practice gives you the exact /θ/, /ð/, or /r/ sounds to fix, with model audio to imitate.

Adaptive vocabulary for Band 6, 7, 8, and 9

Band-tagged word lists so you learn exactly the vocabulary examiners look for at your target score, not a random 3000-word dump.

Timed mock tests with official question formats

Full Cambridge-style Listening and Reading passages with the real 2-hour-and-45-minute timing.

Study Plan

A Realistic 30-Day Roadmap

Week 1

Diagnostic test + vocabulary foundation

Take one full mock under timed conditions. Build a 100-word academic vocabulary bank tagged to your target band.

Week 2

Listening + Reading pattern recognition

One passage and one section daily. Track wrong answers by question type — most Band 6 to 7 jumps come from fixing three or four recurring traps.

Week 3

Writing Task 2 structure

Write one essay every other day. Get AI feedback, fix one weakness, and repeat before moving on.

Week 4

Speaking drills + full mocks

Record every Part 2 cue card topic. Take two full mock tests and review the entire answer transcript, not just the score.

FAQ

IELTS Questions, Answered

Are the IELTS practice tests on NEU Study free?

Does NEU Study cover both IELTS Academic and General Training?

Yes. Our question bank includes Academic and General Training variants for Reading and Writing, matching the official Cambridge format.

How accurate is the AI IELTS Writing evaluator?

Our AI is trained on thousands of band-scored sample essays and follows the official IELTS Writing band descriptors: Task Response, Coherence and Cohesion, Lexical Resource, and Grammatical Range and Accuracy. It predicts an overall band within 0.5 of certified examiner scores in most cases.

How long does it take to go from Band 6 to Band 7?

Most learners need 2 to 3 months of focused study averaging one hour per day. The biggest gains come from targeted Writing and Speaking practice with consistent feedback, not from doing more untimed Reading.
