Lessons Guide

The quality of your preparation and review matters as much as the session itself. Follow this guide to get the most from every lesson.

Before the lesson

Read the lesson card in full.

• Check the level and duration to confirm the lesson suits your current goal.
• Read the learning objectives — they tell you what the tutor is trying to practise with you.
• Scan the key vocabulary. These are words and phrases your tutor will use in questions and expect you to use in answers. You do not need to memorise them; familiarity is enough.
• Read the scenario setup so you know the context (for example, You are at a job interview for a marketing role).

For IELTS Part 2 lessons: The cue card is shown on screen during the preparation window. Spend 30–60 seconds reading it before pressing Connect so you arrive prepared.

During the lesson

Speak in complete sentences. The AI tutor is trained on natural speech patterns. Single-word or one-phrase answers give it less context to work with and result in shorter, less useful feedback.

Use the key vocabulary naturally. When a key word fits your answer, use it. The tutor notices and models the same vocabulary in its follow-up questions.

Ask for clarification. If you do not understand a question, say "Could you repeat that?" or "Could you explain what you mean?" — the tutor will rephrase. This is realistic conversational behaviour, not a penalty.

Use concrete examples. Vague answers score lower. Instead of "I like music", say "I enjoy jazz because every performance is improvised — no two listens are the same." The pattern is: claim → reason → example.

Target response length by level:

After the lesson

Check your word share. If it is below 40%, you spoke less than the tutor. Next session, commit to longer answers for every question.

Read the top improvement area. The AI summary identifies the one or two patterns with the most impact on your fluency. Write it down and use it as your single focus in the next session.

Repeat corrected phrases aloud. When the AI highlights a better way to express something — say the improved phrase out loud three times before closing the app. Saying it immediately is far more effective than reading it passively.

Redo lessons after a break. Revisiting a lesson 2–3 weeks later is one of the best ways to measure real skill improvement. The lesson catalog keeps all completed lessons available.
