How to practise well.
Free practice works best with a little method behind it. Five habits that make the difference.
the fifth one is where we come in.
- 1
Little and often
Twenty minutes a day does more than three hours on a Sunday. Pick a time you can keep and protect it.
- 2
Practise under time
Real tests are timed. Once a skill feels comfortable, switch the timer on and see what changes.
- 3
Study your mistakes
Write down every wrong answer and the question type it came from. After a few weeks the pattern tells you exactly what to practise.
- 4
Say it out loud
Speaking only improves when you speak. Read cue cards aloud, record yourself and listen back once.
- 5
Get feedback on what you produce
Games and mock tests mark themselves. Essays and speaking need a person, so ask for feedback before habits set in.
About the free practice.
Q1Is everything here really free?
Yes. The mock tests, games, writing tasks, speaking questions, band calculator and level check are free for everyone, whether or not you ever study with us. There is no account to create.
Q2Are these official IELTS materials?
No. Everything is original practice material written by LEAD Linguistic to follow the IELTS format. Estimated bands are approximate, and real IELTS results come only from the official test.
Q3Is my progress saved?
Drafts, unfinished tests and best scores are kept in your own browser on this device, so you can carry on later. Nothing is uploaded to us. Clearing your browser’s site data removes them.
Q4Can a teacher check my writing or speaking?
Yes. Message us on WhatsApp with the task you practised and we will tell you how feedback works with us.
Practice is great. Guidance is faster.
Take the free level check and talk to our team about the right next step. There is no pressure to book anything.
