All of the teachers who have taught me are excellent. They adjusted their teaching methods according to my level and the types of question. They are also patient and dedicated.

Chinese

5/5
All teachers are very professional, although they have different teaching style. Sometimes, I feel excited to have a substitute teacher, because I can learn a lot from new teacher’s techniques for IELTS. The process of learning is really challenging cause the schedule is so intensive. Everytime, when I feel depressed that I didn’t make any progress for that section, teachers always encourage me that I need to step by step, don’t worry about making a huge progress by a week. Personally, I don’t have any suggestions for teachers. I do hope there will be fewer classes arranged in 1:00-1:45 PM, so that students can have a better rest and then they feel more energetic in the afternoon.

It has been a long journey in Philinter, I’ve learned a lot from all my teachers. Before I’ve never had experience in IELTS, so I didn’t know any skills and techniques. Then, I came here to study, with all my teachers, step by step, I can really tell that I am improving in all the skills (speaking, listening, reading, and writing). At first, I even didn’t know the structure in writing, suffering with explaining my ideas, but with my buddy teacher’s help, I have started to know how to organize my thoughts and expand the ideas. Everyday in Philinter is a challenge for me, with a lot of homework and mock test on the weekends, while I learn how to manage my time wisely and absorb the knowledge I’ve learned in class. It has been a wonderful experience and full of joy.

In IELTS course, I have met a lot of good teachers. They always tried their best to help me and provided perfect professions. Following teachers’ guidance can absolutely improve the IELTS skills. On the other hand, I really appreciate Philinter for providing vegetarian meals for me, so that I was able to concentrate on studying perfectly. While studying in IELTS, I also encountered lots of bottleneck. However, I would recommend students to try to figure out their own shortages and seek help from teachers.

Japanese

4/5
It was fun to argue anything in English. English class doesn’t have arguments or talking classes in Japanese school so it’s a good experience in Philinter. Toilet is less. No toilet paper.

Japanese

5/5
Although it was only a two-week experience, I felt that my speaking skills improved at Philinter Academy. Through the 1 on 1 classes and SGC classes, I had many opportunities to speak English with many teachers and friends, which was a very valuable experience.
