Getting ready for CELPIP shouldn't mean paying for every little thing. Inside MyCELPIP Coach there's a whole Explore section built for exactly that — four study collections you can use as much as you like, for free, on the website and in the app.
Vocabulary builder
Themed word packs with flip-through flashcards, a quick multiple-choice quiz, and spaced-repetition review that brings a word back just before you'd forget it. Hundreds of words across eight everyday themes — work, health, money, travel and more — so you're learning the vocabulary the test actually leans on. Free. → Open the vocabulary builder
Everyday idioms
The phrases people here actually use — break the ice, cost an arm and a leg, learn the ropes — each with a plain-English meaning, an example sentence, and the same quiz-and-review flow as vocabulary. Idioms are one of the quickest ways to sound natural in Speaking, where everyday, native-sounding language nudges your score up. Free. → Browse everyday idioms
Test-day strategies
Short, practical guides for each skill: how to spend your minutes, how to structure an answer, and the quiet traps that cost the most levels. It's the same advice we write about on this blog, gathered in one place inside the app so it's there when you're practising. Free. → Read the strategies
Email & essay templates
Reusable frameworks for both Writing tasks — the email (Task 1) and the survey/opinion response (Task 2). Each one gives you a structure to follow, a full worked example, and a few do's and don'ts, so a blank page never eats your first few minutes. Pair them with how Writing is scored and you know both what to write and what the raters want. Free. → See the templates
So what actually costs anything?
Almost nothing. Reading and Listening practice are free and auto-scored. Vocabulary, idioms, strategies and templates are all free. The only thing that uses a credit is AI grading — one credit each time you have a Writing or Speaking answer marked, because running that AI genuinely costs money. Credits never expire, and there's plenty you can do before you'd ever need one. → How credits work
Where to find it
Sign in and open Explore — it's in the sidebar on the website and a tab in the app. Everything syncs across the two, so a word you pick up on your phone at lunch is still waiting on your laptop that night. Create a free account and have a look around — the free half of MyCELPIP Coach is a real study plan on its own.
