My name is Mark and I specialise in IELTS preparation. I understand the difficulties and pressures that IELTS students face and how important it is for them to succeed. In fact, passing the IELTS exam can be life changing. So, when you work with me, your goals become my goals and I will do my best to ensure that we can achieve those goals together.
I have been teaching online for over a year and have worked with students from China, Japan, South Korea and most recently from Turkey. This year, I have been teaching migrants and asylum seekers in the UK, helping them to pass the language exams that allow them to pursue dreams such as attending university or working as a doctor in the NHS.
Ich als Lehrkraft
I am a Cambridge University Certified English Teacher with a CELTA qualification.
I have a patient, encouraging and positive attitude to teaching because I know that students learn more when they feel comfortable and relaxed.
Meine Stunden und mein Unterrichtsstil
I can mark your Academic IELTS essays and provide corrections and useful advice relating specifically to the four band descriptors of Task Response, Coherence and Cohesion, Grammatical Range and Accuracy and Lexical Resource.
For speaking, we can practice exam situations together. This practice is a chance to make mistakes in a supportive environment and learn from them.
My 'Conversation for IELTS' lessons focus on a different IELTS topic in each session, giving you the chance to discuss it with a native English speaker. You will learn how to thinks of ideas, answer complex questions and learn topic specific vocabulary and collocations as well as the appropriate idiomatic language.
