Most learners keep practising what they are already good at. It is familiar, and getting answers right feels good. But your IELTS Overall band is the average of four skills — so the single lowest skill drags everything down.
You spend 2 hours 45 minutes and get one more line back: “6.0 again.” You still don't know what to fix.
Writing feels weak, so you drill Writing. In the data, the lowest skill is often Listening.
If you are Band 5.5 and you work through a Band 8 passage, you learn nothing. The opposite is just as true.
Adaptive Learning solves all three with data. Every item you answer builds an accuracy record by skill and by difficulty, and that record decides what you practise next.
There is no complicated setup. Set your goal once, and everything after that updates on its own, every day.
Choose a target band (5.5–9.0), how long you have, weekly study hours (3 · 5 · 7 · 10), and the skills to focus on. The defaults are target 6.5 · 8 weeks. You can change them at any time.
Open the learning hub and today's 3 items are already chosen. The time you spend deciding what to practise drops to zero.
What you answer feeds your per-skill accuracy, and the next recommendation is recalculated immediately. As one weakness closes, the picks move to the next.
“The AI chooses for you” is not an explanation. Here is the ranking actually in use.
| Factor | What it looks at | Effect |
|---|---|---|
| Weakness (60%) | Accuracy per skill. Listening 42% against Reading 71% pushes Listening up. | Your weakest skill surfaces first |
| Difficulty fit (30%) | The gap between an item's difficulty (Band 1–9) and your target band. | Filters out items that are too easy or too hard |
| Variety (10%) | Whether the same question type keeps coming up. | Stops you getting Form Completion five times in a row |
| Seasonal boost | Whether it is a Speaking topic for this quarter. | Surfaces current topics most likely to appear in the real test |
An item you have already answered is never recommended again. Completed items drop out of the pool, and a new member with no history starts with every skill neutral — a profile forms within the first few days.
Same plan, same question bank — only the access window and the included AI credits differ. Pick the one that covers the time you have left before your test date.

One-time payment — neither plan renews by itself. Your attempt history, band trend and bookmarks stay on your account after access ends.
| Item | What it means |
|---|---|
| Full question bank | Not a slice of it, the way a single-skill pack works — the entire active question bank is in the pool: Listening · Reading · Writing Task 1 / Task 2 · Speaking. |
| Picks a day | Every time you open the learning hub, today's 3 items are already chosen. |
| Target band plan | Choose anywhere in 5.5–9.0. Default 6.5. |
| Timeline and workload | Preparation window (default 8 weeks) and weekly study hours (3 · 5 · 7 · 10). |
| Staged mock tests | Mock tests unlock round by round as you progress (see below). |
| Level test | Retake it whenever you like. It is the reference point for your band, so it stays open. |
Listening and Reading are graded automatically and never cost a credit. Credits pay for the part a machine has to read and judge — your Writing and Speaking responses.
1 credit = one AI-scored response. Writing and Speaking are marked by AI, and each response you send for marking spends 1 credit — wherever you request it.
Credits included with each plan
Run out? Top up any time. Credit packs are sold separately, so you never have to buy a whole new plan just to keep marking. Create an account to top up →
Sitting unlimited mock tests on demand does not help — you burn through the passages and your ability stays where it was. Adaptive opens mocks after practice has built the base.
Why lock them at all? Repeating mock tests without a base only confirms the same score again. Scores move when you sit the test after the gaps are closed.
An example based on target 6.5 and 5 hours a week.
| When | What you do | What you get |
|---|---|---|
| Day 1 | Take the level test → set target band, timeline and weekly hours | Where you stand in each skill, and a starting band |
| Week 1 | 3 items a day. You cover all four skills once | Mock round 1 unlocks |
| Week 2 | Sit mock 1 → Writing and Speaking scored by AI | Overall band, and your two weakest skills confirmed |
| Week 3 | Focused work on those two skills. The picks lean that way | Accuracy rises there · round 2 unlocks |
| Week 4 | Sit mock 2 | See on the band trend graph whether it actually moved |
Your record stays after the 30 days. Attempt history, band trend and bookmarks remain on your account, so picking it up again later does not start from zero.
GIO sells three plans. They solve different problems — this is the one for “I don't know what to work on first.”

If you already know exactly where you are weak and only need exam reps, the Mock Test Pack is the more direct buy. Adaptive exists to solve a different problem: “I don't know what to work on first.”
Until October 31, 2026. Buy within that window and you get 30 days of access for $5.80, 80% off the $29 list price. After that the price returns to normal.
It applies to this 30-day pass when bought during the promotion. If you buy again after the window closes, the price in effect at that time applies.
It is not required, but it is recommended. With no history, your first picks start with every skill neutral and a profile forms over the first few days of practice. Taking the level test first means picks are based on your weaknesses from day one. The level test is free.
Items is what gets recommended, but practice itself is not capped. The full question bank is open, so you can do as much as you like, and everything you answer feeds the weakness analysis.
Yes. Reopen the settings in the learning hub to change your target band, timeline, weekly hours and focus skills. The recommendations follow immediately.
Adaptive unlocks them in stages as you progress. If you need all of them immediately, the Mock Test Pack is the right plan. If you hold both, the pack's access opens the mock tests straight away.
No. Attempt history, scores, band trend and bookmarks stay on your account. When access ends, what closes is the recommendations and the learning hub.
By PayPal or credit / debit card. Your account needs a verified email to purchase. Access begins as soon as payment is confirmed.
