I’m Ekky, a dedicated educator with a Master’s in International Studies & Diplomacy from SOAS, University of London, and over 10 years of teaching experience across Latin America, Africa, and Asia. As a certified IELTS examiner and specialist in Cambridge B2/C1 exams, I’ve empowered hundreds of adult learners (B1 level and above) to achieve their language goals, whether for academic success, career advancement, or global exploration. ✅ **Subjects & Exams**: - IELTS Preparation: Intensive courses tailored to your weaknesses, with a **guaranteed 0.5+ band increase**. - Cambridge B2 First & C1 Advanced: Master advanced grammar, essay writing, and speaking fluency. - Real-World English: Focus on idioms, vocabulary expansion, and cultural fluency for work, travel, or daily life. ✅ Who I Teach - Adults and teens (18+) at **intermediate to advanced levels (B1+)**. - Professionals, digital nomads, and students preparing for visas, universities, or careers. My Methodology: Student-Centered & Results-Driven 🔹 Proven Strategies: I combine **insider IELTS examiner tactics with interactive, engaging lessons to target your weaknesses. My students consistently achieve their target scores through personalized practice, mock tests, and time-management drills. 🔹 Soft Correction Technique: Maintain fluency during speaking exercises while receiving structured feedback on grammar, pronunciation, and coherence afterward. 🔹 Cultural Immersion: Drawing from my experience living in 12+ countries (Rwanda, Colombia, Vietnam, and more), lessons integrate real-world scenarios, travel anecdotes, and global perspectives. 🔹 Flexible Learning: Choose your focus—exam drills, conversational practice, or business English—with lessons adapted to your pace and interests.
