IELTS Band 6.0 Study Plan (Foundation)
준비 기간: 6 weeks · 하루 투자 시간: 2 h · 목표: 6.0
이 플랜이 필요한 분
You are working toward 6.0 — often the visa or foundation-course threshold. At this level the plan builds comprehension first and adds exam timing only once accuracy exists.
핵심 원칙
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.

매일의 루틴
아침: Read one passage or transcript aloud for 10 minutes before anything else — mouth and ear before eyes.
자기 전: Before bed, review the words you collected today from wrong answers (5–10 minutes, no new material).
주간 자기 점검
- 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?
플랜은 경로일 뿐, 약속이 아닙니다 — 어떤 일정도 Band 점수를 보장할 수 없습니다. 본인 상황에 맞게 조정하고, 아웃풋 연습을 꾸준히 하세요.
