/02/   THE THREE PARTS, MASTERED

Part 1. Part 2. Part 3. Every cue card.

The IELTS Speaking test is twelve minutes long. It has three parts. Sprechify's AI tutor has a separate coaching mode for each one — and a different drill set for what the official IELTS Band Descriptors look for in each.

PART 1
4–5 MIN

Personal questions

The examiner asks short questions on familiar topics — home, study, work, hobbies, hometown, daily routine. Tests baseline Fluency and Lexical Resource.

What goes wrong: Most candidates over-rehearse and sound robotic, or under-extend and sound terse.

What Sprechify does: 11 topic banks, unlimited question generation. The AI catches both over-rehearsal and one-word answers in real time.

+0.4
median band lift
PART 2
3–4 MIN

Cue card · 2-minute monologue

One minute to prepare. Two minutes to talk uninterrupted on a topic the examiner gives you (e.g. 'Describe a journey you remember'). Tests Coherence and extended Grammar / Lexis.

What goes wrong: Drying up at 50 seconds. Reading notes word-for-word. Hitting 1 minute and stalling.

What Sprechify does: 500+ cue cards across the official topic banks. Live timer pressure. SPSE structuring drills. Recovery-from-blank training.

+0.7
median band lift
PART 3
4–5 MIN

Abstract discussion

Examiner probes the Part 2 topic with abstract follow-ups ('Why do people remember some journeys more than others?'). Tests Band-7+ argument framing, hypotheticals, and counter-arguments.

What goes wrong: Collapsing back to Part 1 vocabulary. Saying 'I think it's good because it's important' three times.

What Sprechify does: Opinion phrasing drills. Hypothetical conditional drills. Counter-argument templates that do not sound like templates. Band 8 lexical stretch.

/03/   THE FOUR IELTS BAND DESCRIPTORS

Four dimensions. One band. All scored.

Every IELTS Speaking band — 5, 6, 6.5, 7, 7.5, 8 — is the average of four scores: Fluency & Coherence, Lexical Resource, Grammatical Range & Accuracy, Pronunciation. Sprechify scores all four after every session and tells you which one is dragging.

DESCRIPTOR · 0125%

Fluency & Coherence

Band 6: Willing to speak at length, though may lose coherence.
Band 7: Speaks at length without noticeable effort. Uses cohesive devices flexibly.
Band 8: Speaks fluently with only occasional repetition. Develops topics fully.
Your fix: Hesitation patterns, filler words ('basically', 'actually'), abandoned sentences. Sprechify flags each instance in real time.
DESCRIPTOR · 0225%

Lexical Resource

Band 6: Has wide enough vocabulary to discuss familiar topics.
Band 7: Uses vocabulary flexibly to discuss a variety of topics. Some less common items.
Band 8: Uses idiomatic vocabulary skilfully. Effective use of less common items.
Your fix: Lexical repetition, vague vocabulary ('good thing', 'bad thing'), missing idioms. The AI suggests stretches mid-conversation.
DESCRIPTOR · 0325%

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

Band 6: Uses a mix of simple and complex structures with some flexibility.
Band 7: Uses a range of complex structures with some flexibility. Frequently produces error-free sentences.
Band 8: Uses a wide range of structures flexibly. Produces majority of error-free sentences.
Your fix: Conditional misuse, tense slippage, article errors. Live correction in the exact form an examiner would use.
DESCRIPTOR · 0425%

Pronunciation

Band 6: Uses a range of pronunciation features with mixed control.
Band 7: Shows all positive features of Band 6 and most positive features of Band 8.
Band 8: Uses a wide range of pronunciation features. Is easy to understand throughout.
Your fix: Phoneme-level analysis: /θ/, /ð/, /ə/, dark L, syllable stress. The lab queues minimal-pair drills.
/04/   IELTS SPEAKING ANXIETY

The exam is not the problem. Speaking under pressure is.

Most people who fail IELTS Speaking already knowthe vocabulary. They go blank in Part 2. Their voice flattens in Part 3. The examiner's pen scratches and they forget the word for “although.”

Sprechify is the first place you can fail Part 2 thirty times in a single afternoon with nobody watching. By the day of the IELTS test, the test room is the calmest place you have spoken English in for weeks.

Judgement-free repetition

The AI does not sigh, does not check the time, does not pity you. Repeat the same cue card forty times. The system just keeps scoring.

Two-week desensitisation

Pre-exam mode runs you through unscripted Part 2 prompts every day for 14 days under real timing. You get bored of being nervous.

Recovery-from-blank scripts

Specific drills for what to say when your mind empties mid-Part 2. By test day, you have a 14-word recovery sentence that nobody can tell is rehearsed.

Examiner cadence training

The AI's pacing, pauses, and follow-up timing match real Cambridge examiners. The unfamiliar rhythm is what trips most candidates, not the questions.

/05/   OUTCOMES

IELTS Speaking test-takers, scored.

I sat IELTS three times, Speaking 6.0 every time. Six weeks with Sprechify and I walked out knowing it was a 7.5. It was. My PR application went through in March.

Sana M.
LAHORE → TORONTO
6.07.5

The AI examiner caught a grammar tic my private tutor missed for ten weeks. Part 3 with live feedback changed everything. Band 8 on the second attempt.

Omar D.
ABU DHABI · UAE
6.58.0

I practise at 11pm after my shift. No human IELTS tutor on the planet works those hours. Got my 7.0 — exactly what my MS application required.

Priya R.
MUMBAI · IN
6.07.0

It does not babysit you. It corrects you. After three lessons I stopped saying 'basically' eight times a minute. The mock exams made the real test feel boring.

Aisha B.
LAGOS → DUBLIN
6.57.5

I was terrified of Part 2. Had failed it twice. Sprechify makes you fail Part 2 thirty times in one afternoon. By the test, I just talked.

Wei J.
SHANGHAI · CN
6.07.5

I went from rehearsing my answers in my head to actually thinking in English while speaking. That is the whole game. Part 3 stopped feeling like an interrogation.

/06/   THE COST OF 0.5 OF A BAND

Your visa, your university place, your job — all hinge on 0.5 of a band.

IELTS Speaking 6.5 is the difference between Canadian PR and another year of paperwork. Between a UK student visa and a deferred place. Between a healthcare licence in Australia and a stalled career.

The gap from 6.5 to 7.0 closes in roughly four to six weeks. The test costs $245 to sit again. The visa application clock is ticking.

AI IELTS Speaking practice is real-time voice conversation with an AI examiner that scores you against the official IELTS Band Descriptors. Sprechify's AI examiner is calibrated on 10,000+ scored Cambridge-format IELTS Speaking sessions, so its band predictions land within ±0.3 of the real result. Across 52,400 learners, the median band gain is +1.2 over six weeks of daily 12-minute practice. So yes — provided the AI is exam-specific. General-purpose AI tools are not.
Sprechify's AI examiner agent listens to your full answer and scores you across all four official IELTS Band Descriptors: Fluency & Coherence, Lexical Resource, Grammatical Range & Accuracy, and Pronunciation. Each dimension gets a separate band, and the overall is the average rounded to the nearest 0.5 — exactly like a real IELTS Speaking examiner does it. You see the breakdown after every single session, not just at the end.
Yes. Part 1 (personal questions on familiar topics, 4–5 minutes), Part 2 (cue card long-turn — 1 minute prep, 2 minutes monologue), and Part 3 (abstract discussion linked to the Part 2 topic, 4–5 minutes). The lesson library has 500+ Part 2 cue cards across the official IELTS topic banks and unlimited Part 1 and Part 3 generation against the same band descriptors.
It is the single biggest reason people use Sprechify. The AI examiner does not sigh, does not look bored, and does not tell anyone you went blank in Part 2. You can repeat the same cue card forty times in an afternoon until you stop shaking. By the day of the IELTS test, the test room is the calmest place you have spoken English in for weeks. The two-week pre-exam mode runs explicit desensitisation drills — unscripted Part 2 prompts every day under real timing.
The Speaking 6.5 → 7.5 gap is the most common gap on Sprechify. The median learner closes it in 4–6 weeks of daily 12-minute practice. The blockers are almost always specific: a small set of mispronounced phonemes dragging the Pronunciation descriptor, lexical repetition in Part 3 dragging Lexical Resource, or hesitation patterns dragging Fluency. The placement diagnostic finds them on day one and the curriculum weights itself toward your specific gap — no time wasted on Part 1 vocabulary if Part 3 is what is dragging you.
Within ±0.3 band of the real IELTS Speaking result, audited across 10,000+ examiner sessions. So if Sprechify projects you at 7.0 the week before your test, the real result almost always falls between 6.7 and 7.3. We publish the methodology — there is no hand-waving.
No. Sprechify is trained on speakers from 80+ countries, including all the accents IELTS test-takers actually have. The AI examiner only flags what the IELTS Pronunciation descriptor would flag — clarity and intelligibility — never 'sounding native.' Regional features like rhoticity, vowel quality, and rhythm are scored exactly as a fair Cambridge examiner would score them.
Both. The Speaking module is identical between IELTS Academic and IELTS General Training. The Band Descriptors are the same, the format is the same (Parts 1, 2, and 3), and the examiner-scoring criteria are the same. Sprechify works equally well whether you are sitting Academic for university admission or General Training for migration.
Yes — and IELTS USA. The Speaking format and rubric is identical across IDP, British Council, and IELTS USA. We have three AI examiner voices (Aria, Marcus, Imani) so you can match the accent of your test centre's likely examiner.
Most learners book their IELTS test 4–6 weeks after starting Sprechify. The 12-minute daily habit fits around work or study, and the mock-exam mode kicks in 14 days before your scheduled date. If your test is in less than three weeks, the curriculum switches to intensive mode automatically.
ChatGPT is a general assistant — it is not trained on the IELTS Band Descriptors, cannot give a calibrated band score, and does not listen at the phoneme level. Duolingo has no IELTS Speaking module at all and no real exam rubric. Sprechify is the only platform built only for IELTS Speaking, with three AI examiner voices, phoneme-level pronunciation analysis, and ±0.3 band accuracy.
No — every plan is paid, with a 30-day money-back guarantee instead. If your projected band hasn't moved by at least 0.5 in your first month on any paid plan, email us for a full refund. We replaced the limited free-trial model with a stronger promise: a whole month to decide on real progress, not five sample questions.
