"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 expencieve. I believed that I can find a coach directly without agents and found Philip from onlineenglishteacher.com.
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. He gave me a template, which contained about 40% of the all texts and I just had to to write the rest part of tasks! These 40% contains necessary words and phrases, which make text scientific and rich. But the fact that I knew what to write was the most important. Moreover, he even checked my handwriting style and gave the advice how to improve it.
When I had a week before the exam, Philip had filled that my level still was not good enough and offered me to have 2 classes/day. That week he became more strict and we trained very hard, but that classes had a great influence on my mark. Finally I achieved 6.0 with on speaking in spite of a big fault in a cue card and 7.0 on writing with the general mark 7.0. I had no option to get less then 6.0, so Philip helped me to save my time and my money. I want to say that he really cares about the results of his students and I advise all who wants to improve their English to study with Philip!"
