Russell 教你拿高分

Hello,?my?name?is?Russell?Terry,?I?am?an?Instructor?from?the?United?States?who?focuses?mainly?on?the?Speaking?section?of?the?IELTS?and?TOEFL.??I?have?enjoyed?working?with?students?to?help?turn?their?dreams?into?reality.??I?fully?understand?their?desire?to?study?abroad,?because?many?years?ago?I?was?in?the?same?situation?and?had?the?wonderful?opportunity?to?live?and?study?in?a?foreign?country.??
The?foremost?important?criteria?to?successfully?training?a?test?taker?is?to?establish?rapport?and?gain?their?confidence.??This?is?done?by?taking?the?time?to?understand?their?background,?motivation?and?future?goals.??Most?candidates?will?spend?over?100?hours?in?the?classroom?preparing?for?the?exam.??Tapping?into?their?motivation?is?the?best?way?to?get?them?to?learn?and?perform?at?their?highest?level.??Unmotivated?students?are?less?likely?to?benefit?from?their?classroom?experience?and?more?likely?to?re-take?the?exam?multiple?times.
Additionally,?having?a?personalized?strategy?is?the?key?to?maximizing?performance.??Exams?are?scored?in?four?different?categories.??It?is?important?to?understand?the?scoring?system?and?how?it?relates?to?the?candidates?strengths?and?weaknesses.??For?example,?there?is?more?than?one?way?to?achieve?a?7?on?the?IELTS?speaking.??A?student?who?does?not?necessarily?have?the?best?pronunciation?can?still?get?a?7?by?effectively?highlighting?their?strong?points.??Many?candidates?retake?the?exam?several?times?because?they?don’t?understand?the?grading?system?and?therefore?do?not?know?how?to?answer?the?questions.??As?a?student?in?school,?most?tests?are?based?on?knowledge?of?facts?and?details,?what?makes?the?speaking?and?writing?sections?unique?is?that?there?are?no?right?or?wrong?answers?nor?are?the?details?very?important.?Because?of?the?complexity?of?the?grading?system,?it?is?important?students?get?proper?training?and?have?an?effective?strategy?for?answering?the?questions.
All?in?all,?I?wouldn’t?want?anyone?to?miss?out?on?future?opportunities?that?await?them?once?they?achieve?their?target?score.???Too?many?candidates?get?caught?in?a?cycle?of?retaking?the?exam?multiple?times?while?using?the?same?ineffective?study?methods.??I?am?here?to?help?them?understand?how?to?achieve?their?target?score,?so?that?their?test?taking?experience?is?pleasant?and?successful.?
