Common questions

Before you start

Is this AI accurate?
Within ±0.5 of a human IELTS examiner on 92% of essays we've benchmarked against a Cambridge-certified teacher's scores. The rubric uses the official Band Descriptors published by Cambridge — the same instrument examiners use. Where it disagrees, it tends to be slightly stricter on Task Achievement, which is what you want before exam day.
What languages are supported?
Your essay is always graded in English (as the real test demands), but every explanation from Liz can be delivered in English, Vietnamese, Turkish, Mandarin, Arabic, Korean, Thai, Japanese, Spanish, Portuguese, Russian, and Indonesian. Students consistently say reading feedback in their first language is what finally makes a grammar rule stick.
How is this different from Grammarly?
Grammarly is a proofreader — it'll smooth your English, which is not what you need. IELTS Ace is an examiner and a coach: it grades against the 4 IELTS criteria, predicts your band, explains what's costing you marks, and drills the fixes. A proofreader will hide your weaknesses; we make them obvious so you can actually improve them.
