Built for tutors who teach to a deadline
IELTS tutoring is teaching with a countdown. Tuton keeps the whole campaign in one place: prep lessons, recorded speaking practice, vocabulary review and visible progress, so every week moves your student measurably closer to exam day.

The four ways exam prep gets messy
The exam date doesn't move
Every lesson has to count, and the student (or their parents) wants evidence it's working. 'We did some speaking practice' isn't a progress report.
Speaking practice evaporates
Your student gives a great Part 2 answer, or a flawed one, and by next week neither of you remembers exactly what was said or which errors kept repeating.
Prep materials are a treadmill
Sourcing fresh practice tasks for four skills, every week, for every student at a different level: it's a second unpaid job.
Vocabulary breadth wins bands, but won't build itself
Topic vocabulary and collocations make the difference between band 6 and band 7, and a word list in a notebook isn't a revision system.
Run prep like a campaign
Ready-made prep
Exam prep as a campaign, not disconnected lessons
The library includes ready-made IELTS preparation courses alongside general and business English: interactive lessons with 13 exercise types you can teach as-is or adapt, synced live in the classroom so you and your student work the same task together.

Evidence, not impressions
Every week of prep leaves a paper trail
Each lesson logs itself on the student's timeline: what you taught, the notes you took, the words and collocations you tagged, the vocabulary reviews completed between lessons. Lessons are recorded and transcribed too, so a Part 2 answer can be revisited instead of remembered. When exam day gets close, the whole campaign is there to look back on.

Visible progress
The progress question answers itself
Per-student analytics show lesson frequency, vocabulary growth and consistency over time, so when a student or parent asks how it's going, you show them a chart instead of an impression. A 15-minute placement assessment helps you level new students before the first lesson.
What switching looks like
The same lessons, the same students, minus the duct tape around them.
