BandUp scores your writing and speaking against the same four criteria real IELTS examiners use — and tells you sentence by sentence what to fix.
Most IELTS apps test you and move on. BandUp tells you why you scored what you scored — and what to change before your next attempt.
Paste your Task 1 or Task 2 essay. Get band scores for Task Achievement, Coherence, Lexical Resource, and Grammatical Range — with specific sentences flagged for improvement. No waiting, no vague scores.
Record any Part 1, 2, or 3 response. Get scored on fluency, pronunciation, vocabulary, and grammar — the same four criteria your examiner uses. No tutor required.
Practice with audio passages covering every IELTS Listening question type. Each answer includes an explanation so you understand why — not just what.
Full Academic and General Training passages. Every question type — True/False/Not Given, matching headings, sentence completion — with technique tips and model answers.
Run a complete timed IELTS mock — all four sections in sequence. AI scores your Writing and Speaking; Listening and Reading are auto-marked. Know your predicted band before exam day.
75 structured lessons across all four skills. Start with a placement test — BandUp identifies your weak areas and puts them first. Track mastery skill by skill as you go.
A short adaptive quiz identifies exactly where you are across all four skills. Your weak areas go to the top of your study plan.
Work through lessons built around real IELTS tasks. Submit essays, record speaking responses — get scoring and specific written feedback after every single attempt.
Your predicted band updates as you complete lessons and practice. When you feel ready, run a full timed mock test to confirm your score.
Whether you need Band 6.5 for a visa or Band 7.5 for a university offer — BandUp gives you a structured path and tells you exactly what's holding you back.
"I need Band 7.5 Writing for my master's application. I don't want a number — I want to know which sentences to rewrite."
"I need Band 7.0 Speaking for a UK visa. I can't afford weekly tutor sessions — I need feedback I can act on every day."
