About the lesson
All classes are tailored to individual students or groups of students, and aim for the greatest amount of information transfer in the shortest time. Lessons are usually for two hours, consisting of one hour theory and one hour practice. The duration of the course depends on when the individual students feels they have reached a sufficient level for their purpose(s). These classes are for adult students, and usually deal with English Test Preparation for high stakes exams related to university or college entry or other issues such as employment or permanent residence applications. I'm also happy to teach all levels of Academic/General/ESP English if required.

Perfect! John is one of the most enthusiastic and conscientious teachers I have ever met. He is knowledgable about IELTS and tells you ways to achieve your desire band score.
