What is and is not assessed

WritSpeak marks your transcript on Fluency and Coherence, Lexical Resource and Grammatical Range and Accuracy. Pronunciation is not assessed from a transcript, so there is no overall Speaking band.

Speaking questions

How does Speaking assessment work?

You record an answer to a Part 1, 2 or 3 question, or take a full test. The recording is turned into a transcript, and the transcript is assessed.

Which Speaking criteria are scored?

Fluency and Coherence, Lexical Resource and Grammatical Range and Accuracy. Pronunciation is not assessed, so WritSpeak does not give an overall Speaking band.

Are my recordings stored?

No. Audio is turned into text for marking and is not kept by WritSpeak.

Is WritSpeak an official IELTS assessment?
