IELTS speaking teacher - IELTS Australia/IDP - 2023I gained this certificate by finishing 20 hours of training for the IELTS speaking part. I learnt what examiners do to decide on a band for test-takers. With this information I can support my students who are taking the IELTS exam to reach a higher band level. I learnt about all of my necessary criteria regarding the public band descriptors for IELTS.

I had the pleasure of being Laura's very first student, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience! She was warm, friendly, and professional, making me feel comfortable right away. Throughout the lesson, she gave me helpful corrections, focusing on my pronunciation and grammar—exactly where I need the most support.
Her patience stood out, both in listening carefully to what I had to say and allowing me time to think through my responses. She also has a great sense of humor, which made the class even more enjoyable. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a skilled, supportive, and fun tutor! Thanks Laura
