Lessons

Lessons teach technique. They are grouped by module and then by depth, and they are all free on every plan.

The groups

Foundations — how the module works and how it is scored. Question types — one lesson per type of question you will meet. Advanced — locating evidence quickly, timing, and the things that separate a 6 from a 7.

The six stages

Every lesson runs the same six stages, in order. The shape is the point: you are never asked to try something you have not been shown, and you never finish without checking whether it worked.

1. Understand — what the technique is and when it applies.
2. See — it done once, on a real example.
3. Try — you do one, with the answer and the reasoning available.
4. Practice — a button straight into the matching drill in Reading or Writing practice.
5. Check — what you should now be able to do.
6. Improve — where to go if it did not work.

The reader keeps a sticky rail of the six numbered stages alongside the text, so you always know which one you are on and can jump back to an earlier one.

Finishing one

Mark as read at the foot records it. Two things follow from that: the lesson index shows how many of a module's lessons you have finished, and the day counts as a study day — reading a lesson keeps a streak alive exactly as sitting an attempt does.

There is no test at the end and nothing checks that you read it. Marking it read is a claim you make about yourself.

Not written yet

Listening and Speaking have module cards on the Learn hub like Reading and Writing do, but their lesson catalogues are the newest — a card that says "Lessons coming soon" rather than listing lessons is that module, not a locked state.
