I've just finished the course. I don't have much time until the exam so it took 2 days for me. He explained every point clearly especially demo lessons are very useful. Thank you!!
By Sajad Familsamavati on 5/21/2021
In short, it is absolutely a great course, especially if you have a band score of 5 or 6. I just wish there was more samples for each type of the essay in the course.
By Majid Malek on 2/22/2021
I had scored band 8 in all the modules in Jan-21 but writing which is 6.5. I purchased this score thinking this may help. I rewrote exams in July and got results today. I got 7.5 in writing and credit goes to Matt. This course is super and made me to jump my score from 6.5 to 7.5. I have scored 8 in rest of the modules with overall band 8. Thank you so much Matt for this powerful content. Thanks, Majid

It is great training, I wish the teacher could create a mind map which will help us to remember essay structures with the types, writing methods of the essay... something to keep all important information in one map. thanks

By Emad Khalaf on 2/2/2018
This course is a treasure since I have accomplished the minimum requirement of IELTS in the first shot, that's band 6 which is a great achievement based on my humble knowledge. Furthermore, it has a lot of information and details that are applicable to our daily life. I strongly recommend this wealth for any IELTS candidate. Thanks a lot Matt.
By Bhargav Gajji on 12/13/2017
My score improvement is 1.5 grade from first time to third time I took the test. I have recommended the course another friend, it helped him too. I can't stress how good the progression was, while clearing the thought process required.
By Tima Paak on 4/20/2017
This course helped me out 2 month ago. I still can't believe how much it was useful, simple and to the point course. Thanks Matt for providing this course for us. No matter how much I tried before, my writing score stocked to 6.5, but I could get 7.0 in my last exam. THANK YOU
By Evan Seok on 5/27/2016
This is a well organized and explained specifically video lecture on how to write IELTS task2 essays. My IELTS writing score is 6.5, but I think this will lead my score to over 7.0 which is my goal if I follow directions the lecture gives. I can say this is much better than other online courses I have watched before. I think I am so fortunate to find this lecture. I will recommend this to my friends!
