What my students say

I needed to get 7.5 overall and 7 in writing to attend a MBA course in London and after taking the IELTS 3 times and not achieving my score I started learning with James and he helped me reach my score within 2 months.

James is a very good teacher who helped me get 6.5 overall and really helped with my writing. He also helped me get a 7 in reading, I would recommend anybody wanting to get a high score in the IELTS exam should learn with him.

Before I started studying with James I didn't know anything about the IELTS but he really helped me understand the best way to write an essay and to answer the speaking questions. He really improved my confidence and now I'm studying at a good university for a MBA.
