“The beautiful thing about learning is that no one can take it away from you. For me, these 10 days gave me awareness, confidence, and so much knowledge. The strategies I learned will really help my students score better, and the breakout rooms and discussions allowed me to learn from my experienced colleagues. I never thought I could teach, but the micro-teaching and assignments made me believe in myself. The dashboard was very unique and insightful – everything was included in one place. This journey has truly transformed me.”

“The main attraction for me was being trained by an IELTS examiner. I wanted to learn how to assess students’ speaking and writing, give proper feedback, and build confidence that I’m teaching the right way. The sessions were very interactive, with peer discussions, practical exercises, and valuable feedback. I gained deep insights into marking criteria, band descriptors, and strategies for listening, speaking, reading, and writing. Now, I feel much more confident to guide my students effectively for IELTS — even for SAT and spoken English. This course has equipped me with the tools I need, and I look forward to continuous learning and improving my teaching.”

“I was a bit skeptical about joining this course because I thought, what can you learn in just 10 days? But I am so happy and proud to say that we learned a lot. I evolved from just a Spoken English trainer to someone confident about becoming an IELTS trainer. The structured way of teaching, the task-based learning, the clear explanation of writing, speaking, listening, and reading – everything made a huge difference. The PDFs, activities, and feedback were so useful, and now I feel ready to upgrade myself further. Thank you so much Krish for organizing this wonderful journey.”

“The TTT course was a wonderful journey with a lot of learning in just 10 days. I loved the games, the Power Essay writing, and the listening sub-skills activities — those are things I’ll never forget. The PDFs and flashcards were very useful, and the way the exam format and strategies were explained gave me so much clarity. Overall, it was a humongous experience, and I’m excited to start training for IELTS soon — with TESOL as my next goal.”

“My journey from day one was a humongous experience. At first I thought, ‘Oh my God, can I do this?’ but the comfort and motivation Krish gave us made me believe I can achieve great things. I enjoyed activities like mutual dictation, micro teaching, essay writing with the POWER technique, and reading skills like skimming and scanning — all of which I am now using in my classroom. The PDFs, feedback techniques, and band descriptors were eye-openers. I truly feel I have received a complete package of learning, and I’m proud to implement these new skills with my students.”

“It’s really a great opportunity for every IELTS learner. When I started on day one, I thought, ‘Oh my God, can I do this?’ But with the comfort and motivation from Krish, I felt ‘Yes, I can do great things.’ I enjoyed activities like mutual dictation, listening, essay writing with the POWER technique, and reading skills like skimming and scanning. The PDFs and feedback techniques were very helpful. I am proud to say I completed this training with many new skills to implement in my classroom.”

“From a spoken English trainer to an IELTS trainer, this journey was very good for me. At first I was scared and confused, but more than that I was excited because I was starting something new. I learned the IELTS formats, writing tasks, reading skills like skimming and scanning, listening sub-skills, and speaking assessment criteria. I really enjoyed the group discussions, case studies, and micro-teaching — even though mine was a disaster, I learned a lot from it. The most important takeaway for me was using the band descriptors to mark students properly. Overall, this experience was wonderful, and I still want to learn a lot more. Thank you for these amazing classes — I really enjoyed them.”

“The most useful activity I learned was identifying students’ problems and weaknesses and using corrective measures, which I found very interesting and useful for my future classes. Listening was my most favorite part of the training — I realized it’s not just hearing the audio twice but applying sub-skills like listening for gist, detail, stress, rhythm, and intonation. The POWER process for writing — Plan, Organize, Write, Edit, Review — has completely changed how I look at writing tasks. I feel very blessed and honored to have been part of this program.”

“From day one to day ten, I was so super excited that I’m going to learn something new. A proper routine was formed — like a school child I used to say ‘this is a no talking zone’ and focus only on class. I started really enjoying the course rather than taking it as a burden. I thoroughly enjoyed the listening micro teaching task, where we had to keep a 15-second audio and frame questions. I also enjoyed preparing how to help learners of different cultures and balance advanced learners with beginners. The PDF material helped me a lot to revise and retain what we learned. I want to do more in-depth, revisit everything, adapt new teaching technologies, and focus on my weaknesses. My goal is to become a trainer.”
