Daily Study Checklist (45/60/90-Minute Versions)
A premium, plug-and-play daily study system for IELTS or any skill: three timed routines (45/60/90 minutes), precise minute-by-minute checklists, and Bangla tips for focus, recall, and motivation. Includes warm-up, core tasks (Reading/Listening/Writing/Speaking), spaced-repetition review, error log, and weekly rotation so you never wonder “what next?”. Print it, pin it, or paste into Notion/Google Docs—then just tick and go.
How to Use This System
- Pick a duration (45/60/90).

Materials Checklist (keep ready)
- Timer, notebook/error log, flashcards (paper/Anki), question bank, answer keys, highlighters.
Bangla Tip: “সব উপকরণ এক ঝুড়িতে/ফোল্ডারে রাখুন - সময় নষ্ট কমবে।”
