    Not only do I and my team work with exam instructors to get the most up-to-date exam requirements, but also provide to the student the most focused strategies that are EASY TO UNDERSTAND, FAST TO LEARN AND FOCUSED ON A PROFESSIONAL ENGLISH CURRICULUM.

    I myself have scored 8.5 in IELTS and have helped my students achieve maximum scores as well:

    TOEFL: 120 points (56 cases)
    SAT: Full marks (45 cases)
    CELPIP: 12/12 (over 300 cases!)
    This excludes the thousands of other students who have been able to secure university entries or who have qualified for top-notch jobs thanks to their newly-learnt English skills.

    Likewise, these successes are the reasons why I love my job and continue teaching. Every day, I work hard towards achieving student results. The very moment they pass and thank me is something I live for day and night!
