YNova

What it does

YNova offers NOVA, a browser-based AI tutor for IELTS Speaking learners. Free access provides timed Part 1 training and basic feedback with limited weekly sessions. Pro and Schools add Parts 2/3, transcripts and practice band estimates across fluency and coherence, vocabulary, grammar and pronunciation. These are practice estimates, not official IELTS results.

Learners can ask questions in their own language, develop an answer from their own ideas, and receive English vocabulary glosses and hints. Support can be adjusted and is disabled during timed exam sections. Training includes a five-stage progression from ideas to independent talk and spaced review. The phone-browser app is available for individual learners; teachers and schools can use a separate portal for class rosters, assignments, completion information and editable draft comments. A class pilot requires learner consent, and learners can unshare attempts.

Start with the free IELTS Part 1 plan; it requires no card and has limited weekly training. Pro covers all three parts and offers unlimited mock tests and scoring. TOEFL and PTE are waitlist products, not currently available for practice. YNova says it is not affiliated with IDP, the British Council or Cambridge.
