IELTS Speaking simulator

    Simulate the IELTS Speaking exam, start to finish

    Work through the real format, timing and flow of the test in a lower-stakes setting, so nothing on exam day catches you off guard.

    • True-to-exam format
    • Official timing
    • Repeatable practice

    In short

    An IELTS Speaking simulator recreates the real exam so you can rehearse under the same conditions. SpeakMetry simulates the full test (a voice examiner, all three parts, the one-minute Part 2 preparation, and official timing), then scores you, so the format feels routine long before you walk into the test centre.

    How closely it mirrors the real exam

    The same structure

    Part 1 interview, Part 2 cue-card long turn and Part 3 discussion, in the exact order of the real test.

    Real timing and pressure

    The one-minute prep, the timed long turn and the transitions all run to official timing, so you practise pacing under pressure.

    An examiner that leads

    The AI examiner opens, asks follow-ups and moves between parts. You respond to it, just as you will on the day.

    Lower stakes, more reps

    Because it's practice, you can simulate the exam repeatedly and get comfortable with the format before it counts.

    Frequently asked questions

    What is an IELTS Speaking simulator?
    It is a tool that recreates the real Speaking exam, including the examiner, the three parts and the official timing, so you can practise under authentic conditions. SpeakMetry's simulator also scores your performance afterwards.
    How realistic is the simulation?
    It follows the exact format and timing of the real test, with a voice examiner that leads the conversation and asks follow-up questions, so the experience is close to the real thing.
    Why simulate the exam instead of just studying?
    Familiarity reduces exam-day nerves. Rehearsing the full flow under timing means the format feels routine, so you can focus on your answers rather than on what happens next.
    Can I simulate the test more than once?
    Yes. Each simulation uses one exam credit, and the question sets vary every time, so repeat runs stay fresh. Credits never expire.
    How much does the simulator cost?
    It runs on one-time exam credits: $4.99 for a single exam, $19.99 for 5, $34.99 for 10, or $59.99 for 20 ($3.00 per exam). No subscription, nothing renews, and credits never expire. If a session fails to start or scoring fails, the credit is refunded automatically.
    What do I need to run a simulation?
    A free account (to hold your credits and save your scored reports), a microphone, a quiet room, and a stable internet connection. It runs entirely in your browser, with nothing to download. A full simulation takes about 14 minutes plus a few minutes for scoring.
