Teaching Experience in detail in IELTS Coaching classes
As a British Council certified trainer, I coach both students as well as professionals for the Academic and General Training modules of IELTS. Due to the pandemic, all sessions are online now. Sessions are either one-on-one or a small group of 2-3 participants only, which enables me to provide individual attention, and is beneficial to the participants as well to derive optimal benefit from the coaching. All my assessment and feedback w.r.t speaking and writing sections are on an individual basis. The training is customised to the requirements of each individual. Since IELTS is a proficiency test, I believe it is vital to assist students on a daily basis in order to enhance their listening, reading, speaking and writing abilities in multiple ways and my training inputs strive to do so. I believe that the guidance for an exam is incomplete without inputs till the very end, so I aid all my students for up to 3 weeks even after the training. So, overall, it's a 2-month training programme. My students have been successful in achieving their target scores of Band 7 and above and have eventually migrated to different countries as per their aspirations.

Teaching Experience in detail in Spoken English classes
As a British Council certified IELTS and Business English Trainer, I have been coaching students and professionals for a decade now. The age group of my students have ranged from 17 to 40 year-olds. Helping them with their grammar, vocabulary and pronunciation was part of my teaching. My students have even scored Band 9 in the Speaking section of the IELTS exam. Their testimonials can be checked out in my profile. Along with getting their desired IELTS score, they have been able to become confident speakers in their workplace and daily lives. I am now extending this experience to Spoken English outside of the exam format and business communication to help anyone keen on improving their English language skills. They will be customised one-on-one online sessions to cater to their needs, whether at work, school, college or just for social interactions.

IELTS Academic and General Training - Online classes Paper to attempt:IELTS General (If you want to move to an English-speaking country for work or immigration)
"I recently completed a series of IELTS tutorials within a short timeframe, and I am thoroughly impressed with the quality of the training provided by Priya. The meticulous attention to detail in each session was remarkable. She provided ample resources to address specific problem areas in the language, which greatly aided my preparation. Their comprehensive approach ensured that I was well-equipped to tackle the various components of the IELTS exam. I've taken IELTS from Priya twice: once for the IELTS Academic in order to obtain a student visa, and again for the IELTS General section in order to extend my visa. Overall, the tutorials were highly effective and I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to excel in their IELTS test. "

"I subscribed to Priya Ji's classes to inform my IELTS GT writing score. Previous score in writing section was 6 or 6.5 in 2021 ( from India). After attending classes , my score in writing section improved to 7 ( in March 2024, appeared From Canada. I thank Priya Ji for her consistent involvement and follow ups. She is honest but is very demanding. I used to attend classes at my Canadian midnight and after day long tiring work schedules it was hard on me to catch up with numerous assignments. I attended 3 classes per week for consecutive 4 weeka. Each class was for 1.5-2 hours. Some of exercises we dis were utterly boring and monotonous and I didnot find value in many of the assignments bit a few assignments were good. Overall, she is a good coach but she did broke some of my myths on the maximum number of words in task 2. Also on the use of prepositions, proper grammer and use of correct English words. She is honest and very hard working. She was serious on my studies more than me. She used to treat me like a school student but infact I am professional working full time for 15 years and I have a family and a kid. She used to give me lomg assignments and expected me to completed in few hours before the midnight classes. I think that was not fair. Many times I felt frustrated when she used to make me feel guilty but then my husband motivated me to keep attending classes to learn the useful things and ignore what was disturbing me. So I kept on for 4 weeks "

First of all, you signed up for a particular time slot and since we are in different time zones and you are working, a late night slot was what was workable for you. For anyone who signs up and comes to me for a band score of 7 in writing, I make it very clear that it’s not going to be easy. For you, staying up late at night for every session must have been challenging, but then, you were aware that it is a 2 hour session that you signed up for. As for this - "She used to treat me like a school student but infact I am professional working full time for 15 years and I have a family and a kid ",anyone who comes to me is my student, irrespective of age or profession and it is my job to help them achieve what they have come to me for. My approach and lessons vary with each participant, depending on their language proficiency. It is shocking that you’ve chosen to word this feedback as disappointing overall on a public platform whereas in all your personal conversations with me, you were profusely praising my classes and how it helped you. I am quoting your texts : "You have been a great help, I was thinking about your lessons while attempting writing section. I wish I could send something over to your place. I will see if some travelling to Bangalore. I will ask you what would like from here. You are amazing. If I can achieve 7 then I am sure achieving 9 with your lessons for a dedicated student is not tough at all."

"Due to my application deadlines, I was in need of an IETLS crash course. My sister recommended Priya as she had a wonderful experience preparing for test with her along with getting a high score. Although my time with Priya was very limited (around 14 hours), she was incredibly dedicated and helped me score an overall 7. I was diagnosed with dengue in the middle for which she was very understanding. Once I had recovered even though she had health issues and had a lot of work, she helped me prepare for the test within short period of time in order for me to be able to submit my application on time. She is a very hardworking person and aims for all her students to receive a high score. I highly recommend her to anyone taking the IETLS. "

"While one can learn the tricks to get through the IELTS, there are no shortcuts to improving one's language. Priya assesses where the individual stands and guides them in improving and working on their weak areas. Priya's approach is to start from the basics of the language and progress from there organically. As the course advances, one finds the areas they lack on, and upon working on those areas, the hold of the language becomes stronger. As a result, one isn't just learning for the IELTS exam but is improving their language, which will be useful throughout their lifetime. Priya is flexible and accommodating with the session timings. I scored a CLB 10, the highest recognised by IRCC (Canada), which wouldn't have been possible without her guidance. "

"I scored my desired band in Writing(7) in General training, thanks to Priya Ma'am. I was getting 6.5 bands in writing multiple times before this. She provided a lot of resources to improve my grammar. The feedback about my writing helped me to focus on where to improve. She was cooperative with the session time slots as well. Altogether, it was a great experience, and I would certainly recommend her to anyone looking for an IELTS tutor. "

Book Priya for IELTS Coaching
"I got Priya's reference from my corporate network. After hearing a lot about her profound ways of coaching, I decided to connect with her to strengthen my English language skills especially in the domain of public speaking and corporate communication. Her guidance has been outstanding. Her course curricula are focused on both formal and informal ways of writing (She helps to achieve accurate tone, grammar, and punctuation), on speed-reading (She helps to achieve enhanced interpretation and memorizing capacities) and finally, on speaking (She helps to achieve fluent English speaking in a flawless but well-structured manner on any random subject at any point of time). Even though I attended a series of Online sessions, I could not find any difference from the classroom training in terms of efficiency & performance. Priya is a tremendously easy-going instructor, and she makes it stress-free for the person learning from her. Thank You So much Priya for being such a great support!! "

"Guys, it was just a total waste of money for me. It is an IELTS exam and grammar is just a part of it. However, she focuses on grammar only and NO exam oriented coaching. No mock tests are taken, No Time management skills are taught and above all, she teaches like we are school kids. Once she refused to take class just because the grammar assignment she given, was not gone through by any of us three groupmates. She could have taught other things. There are four parts of the exam and none of them is fully covered in the course. Do not spend your hard earned money on this, I swear, you will repent "
Reply by Priya
You dropped out of the sessions without completing the course by saying that your work demands no longer permit you to attend the remaining sessions. Yet you continue to be part of all the lessons that I send out. You never once expressed any discontent any time to me personally. I do not give mock tests during session time. They are all given later after the sessions are over. All my students get assisted for a month or so after the end of sessions with all 4 modules, especially with speaking and writing where my feedback is necessary. You are well aware that I lost my father last week and I haven't been able to attend to work in 3 weeks. Without having any discussion with me personally, and coming to my profile to vent shows you in poor light, especially when I informed everyone of the personal loss I am undergoing. I have coached hundreds of professionals and this is the first time I have encountered this behaviour. I even tried reaching you on a call after reading this, but you disconnected it. Each of my students till date have had a good rapport with me because I am always approachable any time. That you choose to not communicate in-person but give false information as feedback is extremely unfortunate.

"I took IELTS couching from Priya and it was completely worth it. She gives an extension understanding of grammer and techniques that will help you score the perfect marks. Thank you so much for helping me achieve my score. I would suggest everyone to choose her because she is a great trainer and helps you understand the logic and concepts rather than just making you practice blindly. "

"Priya Mam has a curated approach to the IELTS academic training. Firstly, she analyzes our current stand on the English language by providing a mock test. On analyzing our hold on the language, she establishes a learning plan with a plenty of learning materials(trust me, these materials are of top-notch language topics). She aptly shifts the gears to tune us on a comprehensive scale by making sure that we are not inclined towards a particular box of listening, reading, or writing. I got an overall score of 7.5, which I'm sure would not have been possible before attending my classes. Not just for my IELTS, but on my professional front, I see a lot of improvement in the grip of my language. "

IELTS General - Classroom sessions
"Very good experience to get IELTS training from Priya Mam. The training is tailored around the areas where you might be lacking in English language. I got a good score in all modules at my very first attempt. Specifically I would like to mention about training on 'Writing' module. Mam gave good understanding of different essay types and how to go about answering them. Her feedback on essay/letter helped me to improve my writing. I really thank her for continuing support even after the course was completed. "

"I have learned so much in my classes with Priya ma’am. She designs classes to address the strengths and weaknesses of the students after conducting preliminary tests at the start of the course. She paces the class just right so you feel challenged, but not overwhelmed. All classes are interactive, she asks questions and gets the students to respond which is both fun and promotes faster learning. She conducts minimum batches. I had to wait 2 weeks to join a batch. But, If you are able to join a batch you are sure to see improvement in your score . I’m thrilled to have found her class! I was stuck at band 6.5 and jumped to 7.5 (L8,S7.5,R7,W7) after classes. Thank you so much once again ma’am! "
