IELTS Coach 2026

Here's your IELTS Coach 2026 User Guide — premium navy & gold design matching the tool, built for new users opening the file for the first time.

6 sections:

Section 1 — Getting Started — 3-step setup with numbered gold pill boxes: find the file, open in browser, get the free API key (with exact steps for console.anthropic.com), enter and activate. Includes a warning box explaining why the key disappears on tab close.

Section 2 — The Academic / General Training Toggle — dedicated section because this is the most important setting. Side-by-side table showing exactly who uses Academic vs General Training, with examples (UK Master's, Express Entry immigration, etc.).

Section 3 — Navigation — 5-row table covering the top bar, sidebar, toggle, band score card, and main content area. Mobile note included.

Section 4 — All 11 Modules in Detail — every module gets its own dark header with number, icon, name, and AI badge. Each entry includes what it does, how to use it step by step, and a pro tip. Spans multiple pages.

Section 5 — Sample 90-Minute Study Session — a timed schedule table showing exactly how to combine the tool with external practice, structured for a Band 7.0 target with Writing as the weakest skill.

Section 6 — Quick Reference — AI vs static modules at a glance, full band scale table (1.0–9.0 with CEFR and typical use cases), and 4 key rules every IELTS candidate must know (word counts, speaking scoring, T/F/NG logic, overall band calculation).
