- Richelle, The Philippines

Hi Jenny/Nigel,
I am glad to inform u that i have achieved 7.5 in listening, 7 in all other three categories. Although it was on 2nd attempt after joining ur class, i am absolutely delighted to see improvement in English language, i had almost became hopeless, but because of ur support today i have managed to improve my score, thankyou very much for ur help.

- Naren, India

After a year of studying English in order to prepare for the IELTS (and after 3 failed attempts to get overall band 7) I can now announce that after finding iPass I have passed it with 7.5 in each part of the test! It is important to emphasize that your course was by far the best. The combination of self-studying with the help and guide of your Internet Course with the personal feedback and training regarding the speaking and writing test was outstanding.

But, more than that, I got a sort of feeling that the iPass tutors were really interested in bringing me through this test with their competence and personality. Thank you, thank you for your sessions with me, not only helpful and efficient in terms of improving my English, but also your encouraging words in every meeting helped me a lot to keep on track, to keep on studying...

- Jochen, Germany

Hi! I am so happy to tell you guys that I passed the IELTS the first time I took the exam last month. I'm so lucky I enrolled in iPass, the course was really great. Thank you Jenny and Nigel for your help especially in speaking part, the feedback was really a big help for me to be more confident in the actual exam. God bless you!

- Trina, The Philippines

Thanks to iPass, Nigel and Jenny, I could somehow get the score which was necessary to enter a British university. Almost all the websites or schools in my country are too expensive to use although they are not so sophisticated as iPass. Therefore, if I didn't find this site, I would have to take the IELTS without full preparation. I strongly recommend anyone who must take the IELTS to learn by iPass.

Furthermore, let me thank here again to Jenny. Your word "finger crossed" given to me just before the test day was definitely effective.

- Chikako, Japan

Thank you very much iPass. I got overall band 7. (7 in each module!) Whenever I can, I will recommend you, because you've been great and very helpful. You're website is terrific opportunity for anyone who wants to achieve better IELTS score, and I am very glad that I have found you.

- Azmi, Sudan

I got overall band 8 (Listening 8, Reading 8.5, Writing 6.5, Speaking 8). Thanks to you and Nigel. I think if I didn't enrol in the course I wouldn't have the confidence that I got specially in speaking where I got the score of 8. I'm so happy with the result of my exam.
Thanks again and all the best to your courses online.

- Mary, The Philippines

Thank you very much for your support in my IELTS preparation. I have got 6.5 instead of 7 I wanted. However, my result is still acceptable to a number of universities where I would like to study.

- Katerina, Belarus

I've found the site is very much useful specially for those who are very weak in English.

- Guddu, Bangladesh

You went above and beyond my expectations! You and Nigel are so efficient and very helpful. Excellent service. I have tried other IELTS tutoring services, but I wish I had known about your service from the beginning. I love how you comprehensively graded my papers with feedback and positive encouragement. I've already recommended your site to several people. Thanks to you, I got an overall score of 8.0!!

- Reza, Indonesia

I have received my results today. I only had few weeks to prepare to get a Band 7, but thanks to your help I got 9 in Listening and Reading and 8 in Speaking (surprise cause it was mainly about art-not my piece of cake:)) Sadly because of my bad time management I did not finished task 1 in writing but got 6 anyway. However, I was afraid i may get much less. I scored 8 out of 9 for all. Needed 7.5 so mission accomplished!

Many many thanks and all the best with expanding your business.

iPass IELTS Online Course is one of the best learning online to improve your score in all tasks in academic and general level. The tutors are well trained and had enough experienced to handle the course as if they were in a real classroom. Their was a live interactive communication like in speaking practice in skype between Jenny and me. I got a feedback right away with tips and guidelines to improve more my speaking as well as my writing tasks.(Nigel and Jenny)

Thank you Jenny for my speaking practice with you and for being considerate to my flexi-time in attending this course.

I think this online IELTS course is very good. I like the writing and speaking part in this course mostly. I want to say thank you to my teachers, Jenny and Nigel, you indeed gave me a great help in my English study during this month.

- Leegong, China

Personally, I liked all your lessons; they included all parts that were similar to the real IELTS test. I could learn step by step and reviewed at anytime. Writing materials and feedback was really great although I could not write as good as the sample. Moreover, I had a good chance to practice speaking with the tutor in Skype. She gave me valuable feedback and advices. Thank you so much.

- Nena, Thailand

The best thing I liked about the iPass course was the written feedback. It was really useful for me. And the overall design of the lessons are also good but I think the time to complete all the lessons must be extended or adjustable and then it would be excellent.

- Ellis Lai, Malaysia

I liked the structure of the course, the richness of the materials, the many ways to practice what you've learned. I also liked the easy contact and the kindness of the tutors and their quick and helpful feedback for writing and speaking. This is a wonderful well designed preparation course. Thanks a lot for your great job.
