Student Stories
Patricia Barbosa, Brazil – IELTS for registration as a teacher
Patricia was a registered teacher in Brazil and wanted to register as an early childhood educator in New Zealand. To do this, she needed to get a band score 7.0 or above in each of the skills in the IELTS Academic test.
Patricia asked us to help her with her writing before her first IELTS test and asked for help again after she didn’t get the score she needed the first time.
We helped Patricia improve her writing by showing her how to express her ideas more concisely so that she could manage her time better in the IELTS Writing test.
We’re happy to say that in her second IELTS test she got 7.5 for her writing and has since registered as an early childhood teacher in New Zealand.
After getting the IELTS Writing band score she needed, Patricia said “Just to let you know that I’ve gotten 7.5 in the writing band in the IELTS test. Unbelievable!!!! Thank you again for your support”.
Babak Ziari, Iran – IELTS for registration as a dentist
Babak is a qualified dentist and wanted to register as a dentist in New Zealand. To do this, he needed to get an overall band score of 7.5 in the IELTS Academic test with no individual band score less than 7.0.
He asked for our help after taking the IELTS test twice and seeing his writing band score fall from a 6.0 to a 5.5.
In four writing tasks over two weeks, we helped Babak improve his writing band score to an 8.0 by showing him how important it was to focus on exactly what the writing tasks were asking him to do.
After getting the IELTS Writing band score he needed, Babak said “Love u is appropriate! Good news, my writing mark of course under your great supervision and tutoring has a massive increase from 5.5 to 8″.
We wish Babak all the best in his new life as a dentist in New Zealand.

He needed to get an IELTS overall band score of 6.5 with no individual band score less than 6.0.
Over the course of a year, we helped Zhechao improve his writing and speaking so that he successfully got an overall band score of 6.5, with a band score 6.0 for his writing and 7.0 for his speaking.
Zhechao was able to start his master’s degree and has since graduated; he has also used his IELTS result to get permanent residency in New Zealand.

My course teacher also gave me a lot of encouragement to build my confidence, especially in speaking. Finally I got what I wanted in the IELTS exam. Thank YOU!”.
Andrea Milena Rivera Jimenez, Columbia – IELTS for immigration to New Zealand

Andrea wanted to apply for immigration to New Zealand and needed to get an overall band score of 6.5 in the IELTS General Training test. Before asking us for help, Andrea had taken the test twice in two years and got an overall score of 6.0 both times.
By giving Andrea some feedback on her writing and speaking in the week before her third IELTS test, we gave her the confidence she needed to do well.
Andrea said that she felt more confident in the test because we had told her what was good about her writing and speaking as well as what she needed to do to improve.
The great news is that Andrea got an overall band score 6.5 in her third IELTS test and now has the chance to live her dream to immigrate to New Zealand.
Graeme Guthrie, Scotland – IELTS for immigration to Australia

Graeme needed to get a band score 8.0 in each of the four skills in the IELTS General Training test to immigrate to Australia. He asked us for help because he hadn’t taken the IELTS test before and was worried about not getting the score he needed.
In the month before his exam, we helped Graeme with his writing by providing him with some IELTS Writing practice and showing him what he needed to do to get an IELTS band score 8.0 in Task 1 and Task 2. We also arranged a speaking session on Skype for Graeme to practice an IELTS Speaking test.
After collecting his results, Graeme said “Picked up the letter containing the IELTS results this morning (hand was shaking opening it), managed to get a band 8 for listening & reading and band 8.5 for writing and speaking. The dream is on! Thank you for your help. I can’t tell you the relief I feel”.
Now that Graeme has got the IELTS result he needs, his dream to immigrate to Australia is one step closer to reality.
Liu Lin, China – IELTS for registration as an immigration advisor

Lin asked for our help after taking IELTS several times and only getting a 6.0 for her writing. She realised there must be a problem with her writing that she wasn’t aware of.
In three weeks, we helped Lin improve her writing band score to a 6.5 by showing her, amongst other things, how to identify and highlight the main features in IELTS Academic Writing Task 1 graphs, charts and tables.
After getting the IELTS Writing band score she needed, Lin said “So excited. I improved from 6.0 to 6.5 which is what I require to apply for the licence. Thanks very much for your help. I would like to recommend e-englishteacher.com to other students!”
We wish Lin all the best in her career as an immigration advisor in New Zealand.

He got an overall 6.0 on his first attempt, but a couple of months after that he took the test again and got an overall 7.0.
Ulan told us that he found the feedback we gave him really useful because it helped him understand exactly what he had to do to improve his IELTS band score.
He said “Thank you a lot for helping me to achieve such high results”.
We know that getting to Australia was Ulan’s childhood dream and we wish him all the best with his life down under.

In six weeks, we helped Alla improve her writing band score from a 6.5 to an 8.0 by helping her use more linking words and phrases and by showing her some of the mistakes she was making with her vocabulary and grammar.
After getting the band scores she needed, Alla said “I have very good news, I have passed IELTS with 8 in each module except 7.5 in reading. Thank you very much for your help, without it I would be re-sitting for this exam many more times”.
