Happy students.

  • I am very proud to announce that I passed my IELTS exam with the help of my tutor Mr. Philip. I was struggling to get 7 band for writing, then I saw Philip's profile as an experienced IELTS tutor. By his excellent lessons I have managed to pass IELTS within one month with the desired score for all the four modules. Thank you Mr. Philip for all your help and support for my exam....☺

He quickly identified my weaknesses and made a focused plan to improve them. What stood out the most was Philip’s genuine passion for teaching and his commitment to his students’ success. He provided detailed feedback on my writing and speaking, which boosted my confidence. If you want a tutor who truly cares about your progress and results, Philip is the one to go to."

  • "Philip is a great IELTS tutor who helped me tremendously to achieve proficiency. I needed IELTS 6.5 to enter into my chosen university and I was averaging 5.5. This changed when I started taking Philip's lessons. He was both professional and personal and made me feel instantly comfortable to ask questions and make mistakes. His feedback was constructive and detailed. In addition to the content, he knows lots of different strategies for dealing with the material. Thanks to his guidance, I passed the IELTS with a score higher than I had expected. I highly recommend Philip to anyone preparing for the IELTS."

  • "I tried for the IELTS test two times before but failed to get the band 7 that I needed. Almost immediately after starting with Philip I improved. He has a lot of knowledge and additional tips which I didn't learn about before. He also has a style of teaching which is very encouraging. I felt like he was a master of the subject which gave me added confidence especially in speaking. Thanks to his guidance, I improved my score and achieved the band I needed. I highly recommend Philip to anyone looking for an effective and dedicated English tutor."
