★★★★★ "An outstanding course that was well-above my expectations; I would have no hesitation in recommending it to my friends and colleagues. Thank you James for an exceptionally well-structured course, jam-packed with practical tips and strategies that actually worked! My score on completion of the final Listening Test was 40/40 (Level 9) in spite of my hearing disability. I would never have achieved this score without James's course given that my first attempt at taking a Listening Test was absolutely abysmal!"—Julieta

•ABOUT ME •
I have a masters degree in Applied Linguistics from the University of Leicester in the UK, and a Diploma in English Language Teaching to Adults (DELTA) from Cambridge University. I've been teaching for over 20 years, the last 10 of which have been predominantly focussed on teaching the IELTS exam. When I was an IELTS examiner, I was fortunate to have access to important aspects of the exam that many teachers and candidates are not aware of — these I can reveal to you in my courses.
