Listening
The fastest way to find the words your ears are missing: write down what you hear, and see exactly where it went wrong instead of a score you can't act on.
What it actually does.
Dictation, checked word by word
Play a line, type what you heard, and see precisely which words slipped past you — the gap is always a specific word, never a vague feeling.
Any YouTube video becomes a lesson
Paste a link and it is transcribed into timed lines you can practise: real speech, at real speed, on something you chose.
Sets that build up
Curated sentence sets grouped by level and topic, so you can start where the speed still makes sense and climb from there.
Exam listening too
Full IELTS and TOEIC listening papers, timed, with the real recordings and marked against the published key.
