Speak with Confidence: Business English, Interviews & IELTS Hi, I'm Mark — a certified ESL teacher with 9+ years' experience helping adults speak English with confidence, clarity and fluency. I hold a TQUK Level 5 TEFL certification, GA Level 3 qualifications in Teaching Young Learners and Practical Teaching, and I'm certified in IELTS coaching. I specialise in conversation practice, Business English, job interview preparation, workplace communication and IELTS coaching. Alongside teaching, I currently work in web design, and I also have a background in jewellery design and manufacture, and retail. This mix gives me real insight into the communication challenges professionals face, so I focus on practical, workplace-ready English rather than textbook grammar. Preparing for a job interview? Rather than generic questions, I tailor practice to your industry — with particular experience in IT and tech — helping you explain your experience and skills clearly and professionally. Every lesson is built around your goals. Having lived in both Australia and South Africa, I have a clear, neutral accent that's easy to follow. Let's get you speaking the English you need!

I then create a learning plan based on your target band, examination date and individual goals. My conversation lessons are relaxed but purposeful. We can have a natural free conversation or explore a prepared topic such as food, music, travel, education, culture or everyday life. Topic-based lessons include useful vocabulary and guided questions. At the end of each lesson, you receive feedback on what you did well, important corrections and areas to improve. Linguaskill preparation is also available by request. Book a trial lesson so that we can discuss your goals and choose the best learning plan for you.

    I have been taking lessons with Cynthia for a while now, and I have seen significant improvement in my speaking skills. What I appreciate most is her structured approach: she created a tailored plan to help me achieve both my fluency and examination goals. She consistently provides highly useful materials and practical tips, which is crucial for me as an exam candidate. Cynthia is always well-prepared, incredibly patient, and encouraging. She manages to strike the perfect balance in her lessons – the atmosphere is light and comfortable, yet productive and serious. During our speaking practice, she provides valuable feedback and corrections without ever interrupting my flow. I am incredibly glad to have found Cynthia. Thank you for your dedication and care! With your continued help, I am sure I will leave the language barrier far behind. Highly recommended!

    I've really enjoyed working with Ellie. I first started taking lessons with her to prepare for an important presentation in English, and she helped me gain much more confidence than I expected. She is always well prepared, encouraging, and genuinely interested in the topics we discuss. I especially appreciate that she creates a relaxed atmosphere where speaking English feels natural and mistakes are simply part of the learning process. Her feedback is clear, practical, and always helpful, and her pronunciation coaching has made a real difference for me. If you're looking for an encouraging and effective English coach, I can definitely recommend Ellie.

    The best teacher ! The teacher’s teaching methods and procedures are well‑structured. She offers detailed practice approaches covering pronunciation, vocabulary and sentence‑building. She also assigns weekly homework to reinforce what we have learned. Talking with her is really pleasant. She is energetic throughout the whole lesson and gives me plenty of time to express myself. This is by far the lesson where I have spoken the most! I absolutely love it!

    Mia is a wonderful teacher for my 8-year-old son. Her lessons are well-planned and engaging. In our latest session they read Hiccups from the Oxford Reading Tree, and Andrew learned useful new words and phrases like "get rid of," "upside down" and "patting," each taught with clear examples from the story. After every lesson Mia sends detailed feedback, so I always know what he has covered and how he is progressing. Andrew enjoys her classes and is growing more confident in his reading and speaking. Highly recommended!

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the IELTS exam?

IELTS, or the International English Language Testing System, is a standardized test designed to assess the language proficiency of individuals who want to study, work, or immigrate to English-speaking countries. The IELTS exam consists of four modules: Listening, Reading, Writing, and Speaking.
There is a distinction between IELTS Academic and IELTS General Training. IELTS Academic is typically for individuals applying to higher education institutions, while IELTS General Training is often used for immigration purposes or for entry into vocational training programs.

What is the format of the IELTS exam?

The IELTS (International English Language Testing System) exam consists of four modules: Listening, Reading, Writing, and Speaking. Each module assesses different language skills and is designed to evaluate a candidate’s English proficiency comprehensively.
Listening: The Listening module consists of four sections, each with 10 questions. The recordings are played only once. The recordings include conversations, monologues, and discussions about everyday situations, academic topics, and social contexts. This module lasts for approximately 30 minutes.
Reading: The Reading module has three sections, with a total of 40 questions. Texts are taken from books, newspapers, magazines, and online sources. The texts vary in style and complexity, ranging from descriptive and factual to argumentative and analytical. Questions may include multiple-choice, matching, and True/False questions. This module lasts for 60 minutes.
Writing: The Writing module is divided into two tasks: Task 1 (Report Writing for Academic/General Training) and Task 2 (Essay Writing). Task 1 (Academic) includes describing and interpreting visual data (graphs, tables, charts, diagrams). Task 1 (General Training) includes a letter based on a given situation. Task 2 (Academic and General Training) includes an essay responding to a point of view, argument, or problem. This task assesses the ability to present and justify an opinion and discuss ideas. This module lasts for 60 minutes.
Speaking: The Speaking module consists of three parts: Introduction and Interview, Long Turn, and Discussion. Introduction and interview (4-5 minutes) include general questions about familiar topics such as hobbies, family, work, and studies. Long Turn (3-4 minutes) involves a task card with a topic, and the candidate has 1 minute to prepare and take notes before speaking on the topic given. Discussion (4-5 minutes) includes a more in-depth discussion of the topic in Part 2. This section explores the candidate’s ability to express and justify opinions. This module lasts for around 11 to 14 minutes.

For how long the IELTS score is valid?

IELTS scores are generally valid for two years from the test date. There is no pass or fail in the IELTS exam. Institutions and organizations set their own score requirements, and what is considered a good score may vary.
There is no negative marking in the IELTS exam. Test takers are not penalized for incorrect answers. If you don’t qualify, you can retake the IELTS exam as often as you wish. However, there is no specified waiting period between test sittings.

How can I maximize my IELTS scores?

Familiarize yourself with the format of each module and the types of questions you will encounter. Work on enhancing your overall English language proficiency. Focus on vocabulary, grammar, and pronunciation, as these aspects are assessed in multiple modules.
Build a diverse vocabulary by reading various materials such as newspapers, articles, and academic texts. This will help in the reading section and in expressing ideas more precisely in the writing and speaking module. Develop your writing skills by practicing essays and report writing. Pay attention to task response, coherence, and cohesion. Practice under timed conditions to simulate the exam environment.
Allocate specific amounts of time for each task in the Writing section. Develop a plan for organizing your ideas and writing efficiently within the time constraints. Listen to a variety of English accents and practice note-taking. Focus on understanding the main ideas, supporting details, and the speaker’s attitude.

How should I prepare for the IELTS exam?

Preparation for the IELTS exam involves familiarizing yourself with the test format, practicing with sample questions, and improving your English language skills. Many candidates find it helpful to take IELTS preparation courses or work with tutors.
