  • ✓ Nothing publishes without you
  • ✓ Cancel the platform plan anytime

$50/month when you are ready, with 0% commission. Students pay teachers directly; the platform does not collect lesson payments.

Already have an account? Sign in

A good fit if you…

Already teach IELTS learners and want one consent-based place for assignments, review, and progress.

Not a lead guarantee

Teacher discovery is an early pilot. Do not subscribe solely because you expect the platform to supply students.

How it works

  1. Create your IELTS teacher profile

    Your method, qualifications, and public price on one page that does the convincing while you sleep. Draft it free and see it before anyone else does.

  2. Bring your students

    They join free. Every essay, score, and deadline lands in one workspace instead of WhatsApp, Docs, Sheets, and memory.

  3. Mark in minutes, not evenings

    AI drafts feedback against the four IELTS criteria. You correct it, add what only you would notice, and press release — only then does the student see anything.

Teacher control by design

AI drafts. You decide. Students see only what you release.

  1. 1 · AI prepares a private draft
  2. 2 · You edit scores and comments
  3. 3 · You release the final feedback

Everything you get, and what each part is for

The platform does two jobs. It runs the teaching you already have — roster, assignments, marking, reports — and it puts your teaching in front of students who do not know you yet.

Run the teaching you have

Everything from inviting a student to handing over a progress report. This is what the subscription is for.

Student roster

Invite learners by email. They accept before anything is shared, the link expires after seven days, and it only works for the address you invited — an invitation cannot be forwarded and quietly used by someone else. Paste up to 25 addresses at once if you already have a class.

Students

Cohorts

Group the students you teach together, assign to the whole group in one action, and compare their progress side by side at the end of a term.

Cohorts

Assignment builder

Task 1 or Task 2, with the form adapting to the task type. Set a deadline in your workspace timezone, publish immediately or keep it as a draft. Every prompt records where it came from, which is what keeps your workspace clear of material you do not have the rights to distribute.

Assignments → New

Reusable templates

Save an assignment you will set again and start from it next term instead of rewriting the prompt, the timing and the marking settings.

Assignments → New

AI-drafted marking

A submission is scored against the four official writing criteria and the feedback is drafted before you open it. You adjust any band, rewrite any comment, and add what a model cannot know about that student. It is a practice estimate, not an official IELTS result.

Marking

You control release

Save privately and the student sees nothing; release and they receive your bands and feedback. Nothing reaches a learner until you decide, so a wrong first pass is never something they see.

Marking

Try marking before you have students

A worked example with a real response, so you can see the whole loop before inviting anyone. It is entirely local — nothing is saved and no student is involved.

Marking → Try a sample

Student progress reports

A report for one learner built from the assessments you released: how each criterion moved, what is holding the band down, what to do next. Generate one, or a batch for a whole cohort.

Student progress reports

Your branding on reports

Put your own name and colour on what you hand to a student, a parent or a sponsor, so it reads as your work rather than ours.

Profile & settings → Report branding

Workspace analytics

The wider view: how the whole group is doing, which criterion is weakest across your students, and who has gone quiet. Reports are about one learner; analytics is about your teaching.

Workspace analytics

Automation you can see

Deadline reminders go to students so you are not the one chasing. One page lists everything running on your behalf and where to change it — nothing happens in your workspace that this page does not show.

Automation

Learning paths

Build a plan for an individual learner from what their work actually shows, and keep the next steps attached to the evidence they came from.

Students → a student

Keyboard-first navigation

A command palette for jumping to a student, an assignment or any page, plus g-then-letter shortcuts for the sidebar. Built for people who live in the marking queue.

Export your data

Your students, assignments and assessments are yours. Export them whenever you want, including on the way out.

Profile & settings → Account & data

Promote your teaching to new students

A profile, a place in the directory, and a byline you can write under. All of it is yours to control, and none of it is sold — there is no paid ranking on this platform.

A public teacher profile

Your own page: how you teach, who you teach, your languages and service regions, your lesson format, duration and starting price. You choose what is on it and it stays private until you publish.

ielts.international/t/your-name

A listing in the teacher directory

Once published, your profile is listed and can be filtered by region, language and teaching speciality, so a student narrowing down to what they need can reach you. Ordering is never sold — there is no paid placement.

/teachers

Articles under your own byline

Write and publish to the site's blog as the author, with your own author page collecting everything you have written. This is also the practical route to being search-eligible, which the profile requirements explain below.

Articles

An introduction video

A short video on your profile, with captions, so a student can hear how you teach before they write to you.

Profile & settings → Introduction video

Work samples

Show real teaching work — annotated feedback, a marked script — with the student's consent, so your profile demonstrates rather than asserts.

Profile & settings → Portfolio

Answer questions before they are asked

Add your own questions and answers to your profile: what a first lesson covers, how you handle a deadline three weeks out, what you do not teach.

Profile & settings → Profile FAQ

Your profile in other languages

Publish a version of your profile in a language you teach in, so a student searching in their own language reads you in theirs.

Profile & settings → Profile languages

Enquiries, on your terms

Students contact you through your profile. You set how many enquiries you can take, pause new ones when you are full, and reply from one queue. You decide who becomes a student.

Prospective students

Reviews tied to real teaching

A student can review you only after a teaching relationship both of you confirmed. It is a narrower system than an open review box, deliberately — it means a review on your profile reflects work you actually did.

Students

Know where your traffic came from

Create a link per place you share your profile and see which one brought the enquiry, so you can spend your time on the channel that works.

Profile & settings → Links and sharing

Refer another teacher

Invite a teacher you know. Credit applies to the team plans; because Solo is already at the $50 floor, a Solo subscription earns no credit — we would rather say that than imply a discount that cannot exist.

Referrals

Be realistic about this

The directory is new and there are very few published profiles on it today. Treat your profile as somewhere to send people who already found you — a bio link, an email signature, a school page — rather than as a source of new students.

Want a link to this list on its own page — open it separately.

What is live today—and what is still a pilot

The $50 plan is for the live teaching workspace. Discovery is labelled separately so experimental demand is never mistaken for a promise.

Operate · available

Run your students in one workspace

Roster, assignments, teacher-controlled AI drafts, released feedback, and progress reports are the live foundation of the product.

Prove · foundation available

Show how you teach

Public profile, declared price, method, and evidence controls are available. What is verified says verified; what is your word says your word.

Grow · early pilot

Qualified enquiries are being tested

The learner-to-teacher handoff is being validated with a founding group. It is not a guaranteed lead volume and not a reason to buy the plan alone.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost?

Solo is $50/month flat and includes 25 active students and 250 AI-drafted markings a month. Teams can use Teaching Studio ($99/month) or Academy ($199/month). Cancel whenever you want and keep your data.

Do you take a percentage of my lesson fees?

No. Lesson payments never touch the platform — your students pay you directly, on your terms, and the platform charges a flat subscription only. There is no commission, no cut of a trial lesson, and no paid ranking.

Will you send me students?

We are honest about this: the learner-to-teacher enquiry flow is an early pilot with a founding group of teachers. Your public profile and the teacher directory are live today, but we do not promise student volume — if anyone guarantees you leads, be suspicious.

How does the AI-assisted marking work?

Your student submits writing, and the AI drafts scores and comments against the four IELTS criteria in seconds, quoting the student's own sentences. You correct what is wrong, add what only you would notice, and nothing reaches the student until you press release. The estimates support your judgment and are practice guidance, not official IELTS results.

Do my students pay anything to use the platform?

No. Your students join your workspace free and never pay the platform anything. What you charge them for lessons is entirely between you and them.

Who owns the articles and content I publish?

You keep ownership of your articles. IELTS International receives a non-exclusive license to review, publish with attribution, correct, and remove accepted content; teacher-service payments are never part of this license.

Is this affiliated with the official IELTS test partners?

No. IELTS International is an independent platform and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to the official IELTS test partners.

AI-assisted practice estimates support teacher review and are not official IELTS results. IELTS International is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to the official IELTS test partners. Current marketplace features are limited; profile visibility and enquiry experiments do not guarantee students. Teacher-service payments are made directly to the teacher or their organisation, who is responsible for their own terms, receipts, cancellations, and refunds.
