First Lesson:
A simple diagnostic. It will be roughly an hour, but very simple.
No pressure here, I will speak with you, get you to show a writing sample you made, test your listening with a quick quiz session, and test your reading ability as well.
You must tell me your current level and be honest. It's preferable if you already know your previous results, but we can estimate without issues even if you haven't taken an IELTS test before. Do NOT try to pretend to be someone you're not skill-wise. Don't give me a writing sample that isn't yours. Don't cheat with my assessments, because the actual IELTS exam is CCTV supervised and won't allow this nonsense.
Continued lessons:
Weakness drilling. We will focus on improving your weaknesses as much as possible. Typos, conciseness, vocabulary, spacing-out while reading, lack of transition words between paragraphs and sentences, etc. Whichever issue I find, I will help you fix.
These lessons, both the 1st diagnostic and the drills, will be an hour each. I cannot promise good results if you cannot commit this time, because more time allows us to help you improve better. It would be preferable if you have a laptop or PC to familiarize yourself with keyboards and advanced software, but we can still do sessions on phones as well.
I scored a band 8.5 in 2026, and a band 8 in 2024. This was for IELTS Academic on Computer. If you wish to get a band 6 or above and are actually willing to work for it, then these lessons are for you. These calls are meant as guidance, not a magic wand. I will help you identify and drill your issues, but you must self-study as well if you want to retain this information and do better in your IELTS.
My lessons are for anyone of any age who has the desire to improve their English and commit at it. Granted, IELTS Academic is usually for university students aged 17-24, but you can take it at any age. You will need a baseline band of 3 or any decent basic conversational English, however, as my goal is to get you from basic -> advanced English. I cannot do this if your base is not built, so contact me if you believe you are my target audience. I will get you from a band 3 to a band 6, or a band 4 to a band 7, as long as you put in the work.

He is intelligent, gentle, and patient, and I have greatly benefited from him! I have been practicing for the IELTS exam, and with his guidance, I feel ready.
He simplifies complicated topics such as complex grammar and vocabulary, he is one of the best tutors I have ever had! I would recommend everyone who wants to get a band 8 or a 9 on the IELTS exam to book with him. He is also nice and very patient!
He is nice, kind, smart and has excellent knowledge on the IELTS exam, he can assist with grammar, spelling, listening and more! He understands the mark scheme well, and will help you get the highest grade possible on the IELTS exam
