IELTS Band 7.0+ Study Plan
期間: 4–6 weeks · 1日の学習時間: 2.5–3 h · 目標: 7.0+
このプランが合う人
You are already around 6.0–6.5 and need 7.0+. From here, listening/reading precision is trainable — but writing and speaking usually decide whether you cross the line. This plan weights output accordingly.
たった一つの原則
Input alone (memorizing words, watching lessons) stores knowledge; only OUTPUT (dictation, timed tests, speaking aloud, outlining) turns it into a band score. Every day below mixes both — never skip the output half.

週ごとの自己チェック
- Listening: is your score stable or rising? Which section loses the most points?
- Reading: are you finishing in 60 minutes? Which question type costs you most?
- Did you do the OUTPUT work (dictation, outlines, speaking aloud) — or only input?
- Write one sentence: what will you do differently next week?
プランは道筋であり、約束ではありません — どんなスケジュールでもバンドスコアを保証することはできません。自分の現実に合わせて調整し、アウトプット練習を続けましょう。
