Hey, I'm Ethan.

I’m an IELTS instructor with over 20 years of experience helping English learners reach Band 7 and above.

​

I scored 8.5 on my very first IELTS attempt in 2005, and I’ve since taught thousands of students from around the world, many of whom are now IELTS teachers themselves.

​

I hold a Master’s degree in English Teaching, a CELTA certificate, and a passion for designing practical, strategy-based IELTS lessons that actually work.

​

This website is where I share my best resources — based on real classroom experience and up-to-date exam trends.
