See what the analyser catches
Here's the free analyser run on a real Band 6.5 Task 2 paragraph — the four-criterion read-out, the exact flaw it flags, the fix, and the Band 7 rewrite of the same paragraph. This is a demonstration of the tool on real writing, not a student testimonial.
Task 2 prompt · Opinion (Agree/Disagree)
Some people think that governments should spend money on public services rather than on the arts. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
I agree with this opinion because public services are very important for people. Public services like hospitals and schools are things that everyone needs and the government should give money to them first. The arts is also good but it is not as important as the public services, so the money should go to the hospitals and schools because they help people more and the arts can be paid by private companies instead.
Analyser read-out
What it flags
Lexical Resource is capping this paragraph at 6.0: "important", "people", "things" and "good" are repeated and stay general, and "the arts is" is a subject-verb agreement slip. Coherence is also weakened by leaning on "because" and "so" to bolt clauses together instead of using precise linkers.
The fix (+0.5 band)
Swap the vague, repeated words for topic-specific collocations ("essential infrastructure", "life-saving care", "publicly funded"), fix the agreement ("the arts are"), and break the run-on into two controlled sentences with a precise linker.
I largely agree that public funding should prioritise essential services over the arts. Provisions such as hospitals and schools deliver life-saving care and basic education that every citizen depends on, so they have a stronger claim on limited public budgets. The arts undeniably enrich society, but they can realistically attract private sponsorship and ticket revenue, whereas an underfunded health system has no comparable safety net.

If you're stuck at 6.5, it's not because you don't know English.
It's because the examiner is looking for something specific — and nobody told you what it is. Every 6.5 essay has the same four problems hiding in it. This playbook identifies which ones you have and shows you exactly how to fix them. No vague "use better vocabulary" advice — the actual moves that move a band.

Common questions
Is this for Academic or General Training?
Both. The Task 2 framework is identical for Academic and General Training. Phase 3 covers Academic charts and General Training letters separately, so you only study your track.
How is this different from a free YouTube tutorial?
Free tutorials tell you what a good essay looks like. This shows you which of the four criteria is capping your score and gives you a repeatable structure plus a 14-day plan to fix it — the part nobody decodes.
Do I get updates?
Yes. It's a one-time $49 with lifetime access, and we keep the material current as rubric guidance evolves.
What if it doesn't work for me?
Phase 1 is completely free, so you can judge the approach before paying. The method is the same examiner logic real markers use.
