“I took the IELTS test 4 times and kept failing because of my low reading score. I followed the instructions in the course and that helped, then I spent 3 sessions with Patrick on Whatsapp – he told [me] what I needed to do and how to reach my goal, and then next time I took the test I passed – with half a band MORE than I needed!”
Natasha G

“In my discussion sessions, Patrick went through my writing line by line and explained what I was doing wrong and how I can improve. In only 4 weeks I went from a Band 6.0 in my writing right up to a Band 7.5 – and now I’m going to Canada!”
Devendra B
“The course is very useful, but it was the discussion sessions that really made the difference for me – I was so nervous about the speaking test, but we had three mock assessments and then my tutor told me about what I need to change to get my ideal score. When it came to the test, I was so confident that I easily got the score I needed.”
