IELTS Speaking · Australia · Coming soon
A full IELTS Speaking mock test, any time you need one.
An AI examiner runs all three parts on the real timings and never helps you out — then you get an estimated band and specific feedback on fluency, vocabulary and grammar.
An examiner, played by AI.
10 free minutes every month. No card needed.
Example practice session: Examiner says “Now I'm going to give you a topic. You have one minute to prepare.” You answer out loud and get feedback on Fluency & coherence, Lexical resource, Grammatical range & accuracy.

Tips from the marking criteria
- 1
Extend every answer
One-line Part 1 answers cap your band. Add a reason and an example.
- 2
Use the full two minutes
In Part 2, cover every prompt on the card and keep going until the examiner stops you.
- 3
Don't memorise
Examiners spot rehearsed answers. Practise flexible language instead of scripts.
How a session works
- Step 1
Read your task card
Each scenario starts with a card like the real exam's: the setting, who you are and what you need to do.
- Step 2
Speak with a realistic partner
The AI plays the patient, relative, colleague or examiner. Hold Space (or the mic button) while you talk. The session is timed like the exam.
- Step 3
Get exam-style feedback
An estimated score against the exam's own criteria, plus specific notes on what to fix next time.
Questions
Is the band accurate?+
It's an estimate based on three of the four criteria from your transcript. Pronunciation isn't included.
Is this the same for Academic and General Training?+
Yes — the Speaking test is the same for both.
What band do I need in Australia?+
It depends on your visa, university or registration body. Check the official requirement for your pathway.
Does the examiner give feedback?+
Not during the test — just like the real thing. You get detailed feedback afterwards.
