The real problem

You probably don’t need more IELTS videos.

You can find hundreds of IELTS videos, PDFs, practice tests and AI prompts for free.
But knowing that you should study is not the same as actually training consistently.

A lot of students start strongly, miss a few days, lose motivation, jump between random resources,
and never build the specific skills their next band score requires.

This programme gives you something self-study cannot:
a place to show up, a time to train, and a coach leading the work.

“I know I should study, but I keep starting and stopping.”
“I do practice tests, but I don’t know what skill I actually need to improve.”
“I need a higher band, but my preparation has no real structure.”
“I study alone and nobody keeps me accountable.”

What you’re really buying

Not another course. A training routine.

The £97 programme is built around three things most IELTS students are missing:
structure, skill development and accountability.

01

A fixed place & time to train

Stop waiting until you “feel motivated.” At 8 PM China time, you know where you should be:
in the live class, training IELTS with your coach.

02

Build the skills behind the score

Instead of endlessly taking tests, learn what IELTS is actually measuring and deliberately train
the Reading, Listening and Writing skills that move your performance forward.

03

Stay accountable for 12 weeks

Improvement comes from repeated training. The live schedule gives you a rhythm to follow so your
IELTS preparation does not disappear every time life gets busy.

The live training system

Show up. Train. Build the next skill.

The class is not designed around random tips. We rotate through the core areas you need to understand,
practise and improve across the 12 weeks.

Your live training rhythm
Every day · 8–9 PM China
Core skill 01

Reading

Build question recognition, paraphrase awareness, reading efficiency, evidence finding and exam decision-making.

Core skill 02

Listening

Train real-time processing, prediction, distractor awareness, spelling, focus and answer accuracy.

Core skill 03

Writing

Improve task response, structure, idea development, grammar control, vocabulary use and clearer written communication.

Your exact training focus develops across the programme as you learn what each skill requires at your current IELTS level.

The £97 offer stack

Everything you need to start training properly.

One simple front-end programme: live coaching, a fixed schedule and 12 weeks to build better IELTS habits and skills.

Who this is for

Built for students who need a real training system.

This is for you if…

  • You are new to IELTS and need to understand how to prepare properly.
  • You already have an IELTS score but need a higher band.
  • You keep losing motivation when you prepare alone.
  • You want a fixed daily time to study and train.
  • You need to understand which skills actually create better Reading, Listening and Writing scores.
  • You want to stop jumping between random videos, tips and practice tests.

This isn’t designed for…

  • Someone who only wants prerecorded videos with no live schedule.
  • Someone who does not want to show up and practise consistently.
  • Someone only looking for intensive small-group Speaking coaching — this £97 offer is focused on Reading, Listening and Writing.
  • Someone who wants private 1:1 coaching as the core delivery model.

Real Smooth English students

Train with a coach who has helped students reach real IELTS goals.

The goal is not to collect more IELTS information. The goal is to build the skills and consistency that let you perform when your test date arrives.

Lee hit Band 7.0 overall.

Lee’s result included Listening 7.5 and Reading 8.0, with the score he needed to help secure his university plan.
The same principle sits behind this programme: understand the gap, train deliberately, and keep showing up.

Matthew Fabling, Smooth English IELTS coach
Your IELTS coach

Led live by Matthew Fabling.

This is not a faceless course where you buy access and disappear into a library of videos.
I lead the live training.

My job is to help you understand what IELTS is actually testing, build the skills underneath the score,
and create a training routine you can follow long enough to improve.

If you are new to IELTS, we start by helping you understand the exam and the skills it requires.
If you already have a score, the focus becomes building the skills needed to move toward your next band.

Questions

Before you join.

Is this for complete IELTS beginners?

Yes. The programme is designed both for new IELTS students who need to understand the exam and for students who have already taken IELTS but need a higher score.

What time are the live classes?

The live class time is 8:00–9:00 PM China time. In the UK this is 1:00–2:00 PM while the UK is on British Summer Time, and 12:00–1:00 PM when the UK is on GMT.

Which IELTS skills are included in the £97 programme?

The core £97 offer covers Reading, Listening and Writing training. Speaking is deliberately kept separate because meaningful speaking coaching needs a much smaller group and more individual feedback.

Why are the classes live instead of only prerecorded?

Because the core promise of this offer is not simply access to information. It is giving you a time to show up, a training rhythm and accountability so you can stay consistent across the full 12 weeks.

Is £97 the full price for the 12-week core programme?

Yes. The planned Reading, Listening and Writing live programme is £97 (approximately ¥890 RMB). Join the waitlist to register your interest and be first to hear when enrolment opens.

What if I decide it isn’t right for me?

The core programme includes a 30-day money-back guarantee, giving you time to experience the live training and decide whether the format is right for you.
