Thanks Philip for preparing me to IELTS
I decided to continue my education abroad, and on of the major problems was to pass the IELTS exam. I had enough experience in reading and listening, but I had never been abroad and almost never spoke and wrote on English. My time was limited by 1 month and I had to improve these skills anyway. Skype classes seemed to be the best solution in this situation. I started to search and found a lot of agencies, but their services were very expensive. I believed that I can find a coach directly without agents and found Philip from this website.
We had a free call, when he told about his experience and described conditions, which I found very suitable in my situation. I ordered 10 group classes for $189, but all this time I was a single student in his group! Furthermore, I worked and I easily chose an appropriate time for classes after my work. I want to note that Philip is a great teacher: his English is clear, he can listen, gently corrects mistakes and likes to joke. We trained speaking and writing: firstly we checked my writing homework and after that we spoke like on the exam. He teached how to build my speech, patiently listened my answers and corrected my mistakes and pronounciation. I ordered additional 10 classes with no doubt.
Philip has a great method of performing the writing part of the exam. Moreover, he even checked my handwriting style and gave the advice how to improve it. The classes are enriching, interesting and funny, which are qualities difficult to find in the same teacher. Of course they are also demanding, but personally, this is the best decision I could take to learn English.
