Last night, I received news from Kuya Alex, a cousin working in Saudi Arabia. His co-worker, Bong Gumaran, has passed the International English Language Testing System or IELTS. It is the test that measures the ability to communicate in English across all four language skills – listening, reading, writing and speaking – for people who intend to study or work where English is the language of communication.

My sister and co-tutor, Doreen, is also an IELTS passer. Kuya Alex referred us to Bong and he went home last October to attend one-on-one review sessions with us. Ate Do handled the Listening, Writing, and Speaking areas while I, as a taught him Reading. Bong took the exam in the first week of November.

We think that one-on-one IELTS tutoring is better than the regular small class review sessions that other centers offer. For one, we can cater our teaching style with the unique need of each student. Also, especially in the Speaking area, the student gets to speak with the tutor him/herself and not with a fellow student. Thus, the proper accent is modeled by the teacher and followed by the student.
