About this episode

 

In this episode, we speak with Alex our recent IELTS success student who scored Band 7.5 in 10 days! 

WOW! 

You will love this story!! 

Alex emails me the other day: 

Hi Team,

…the premium essay checker helped immensely in prep for this. I only had less than 10 days to study for my IELTS General this time around and was sleep deprived when I took it but happy to report I got 7.5 in Writing (and 8.5 overall)!

When I got that message we had to reach out and ask for an interview.

Listen to this episode and you will learn how Alex scored Band 7.5 in 10 days: 

  • Her unique MACHINE GUN* approach to essay training 
  • How she found the balance between flowery prose and PR writing
  • Her unique “BATTLE READY” exam preparation routine

*The MACHINE GUN approach works best with the premium online essay checker

Here is the full email I got from Alex: 

This March, when you upgrade to our premium essay checker service (packs start at $6 / month!), not only can you speed up your preparation time but you will get our Task 2 Writing Course FREE of charge!
