What makes this different

Three things a one-on-one coach does that a group class can’t.

01

Tailored, not templated

Every program opens with a full diagnostic. Sessions target the specific skills holding your band back — not a syllabus built for forty students.

02

Descriptor-mapped feedback

Writing and speaking come back with per-criterion band estimates mapped to the IELTS public descriptors, plus line-by-line margin comments. Not a score out of 9 — a plan to move it.

03

One-to-one, every minute

Sixty minutes of Isabel's undivided attention per session. No rotating between rooms, no shared screens, no group-class dilution.

How it works, end to end.

Four stages from the first call through test-week check-in — plus a grading pipeline, a mock-test library, and direct chat that runs alongside every step.

Step 01

15-min trial lesson

15 min · no commitment

A short session with Isabel to understand your target band, timeline, and where you are. You leave with one concrete next step — whether you keep working with her or not.

You receive

Clear next step

Step 02

Diagnostic session

60 min · included in program

Pre-work: submit a writing task and a recorded speaking answer. The session returns per-criterion bands across all four skills plus a personalised lesson plan.

You receive

Per-skill band + plan

Step 03

Weekly 1:1 coaching

60 min × 10 · video

You receive

3 Isabel gradings included

Step 04

Progress reviews

Sessions 3, 6 & 9

Formal mock tests graded at three checkpoints. You see exactly how your band has moved, what's still blocking it, and where the next three sessions should focus.
