“Thanks for the amazing videos.
These are ‘to the point’, short videos, beautifully explained with practical
examples." Adari J.
"Hi Jacky, I bought a listening book from you this morning. You know what? I’m 100% satisfied. It’s super helpful. If I’d had the chance to read this book 7 years ago, my job would be very different now." Loi H.
"Hi Jacky, I recently
got my IELTS results and I was pleased to discover that I got an 8.5 score. I'm
firmly convinced your website and your videos played a strategic role in my
preparation. I was able to improve my writing skills thanks to the effective
method you provide. I also only relied on your tips regarding the reading
section and I was able to get a 9! Thank you very much." Giano
“After listening to your videos, I knew I had to ditch
every other IELTS tutor I'd been listening to. Your explanations are clear and
easy to understand. Anyways, I took the test a few weeks ago and my result came
back: Speaking 7, listening 9, Reading 8.5 and Writing 7 with an average band
score of 8. Thanks, IELTS Jacky." Laide Z.
