🗣 Hi there! I’m Tom from England, and I’ve been an IELTS teacher for over 10 years. During that time, I’ve helped more than 100 students achieve scores of 6 and above. I'm dedicated to guiding my students towards their goals, whether that's getting into their dream university or starting a career abroad. I’m a total IELTS nerd — I’ve taken practice tests countless times and created heaps of my own study materials. I'm confident that I can answer any of your questions about IELTS and lead you to the score you need.

TEACHING STYLE:
My classes are focused at all times on test skills: You will learn how to recognise and respond to all question types so that you can answer questions quickly and with confidence.
We will use only real tests and learning materials made just for you to help you target your mistakes and grow your strengths. Never generic textbooks.

MORE DETAILS:
👂 Listening: I will teach you what to expect in all sections and provide training on all task types including filling in forms, labelling maps, understanding debates and discussions, and listening for keywords in lectures. Are you confused by different accents? You will get used to my standard southern British accent in no time, and I will help you understand accents from Australia, the US and Canada too thanks to my training in linguistics.
📚 Reading: I will teach you how to increase your reading speed, quickly find key information and identify words with similar meanings. You will learn how to answer all question types including multiple choice, matching information, true/false/not given, filling in blanks, and labelling diagrams.
🖊️ Writing: You will learn about all Task 1 types including graphs, charts, maps and diagrams. I will show you how to describe trends, make comparisons and analyse differences. In Task 2 you will learn to make and discuss opinions, consider advantages and disadvantages, and write about causes, effects and solutions. Above all, I will teach you to write quickly, as it is essential to finish both tasks and reach the minimum number of words within one hour.
👄 Speaking: I will help you prepare for all common questions and topics in Part 1, give expert advice on making short speeches in Part 2, and teach you how to give long and confident answers to all types of difficult questions in Part 3. I will also help you with speaking confidence, fluency and pronunciation.
