BRITISH COUNCIL TRAINER.
This is Dr. Namneet Kaur ( Alina), I’m a clinical psychologist and I run my own IELTS Institute .

I’m a certified British council examiner and trainer. I’ve been an examiner for a year at the British Council Australia. I received my diploma in Cambridge CELTA and DELTA from the British Council and TEFL from Asian college of teachers.

I believe I can help students feel comfortable and confident within themselves as they hold themselves with English. I help with personality development, problem-solving and decision making skills as well which plays a significant role in learning journey.

    I train my students to attain maximum bands in IELTS
    I help them to understand the basic rules and patterns that examiner expect to see at first glance. Furthermore, I strengthen their grammar rules .
    IELTS WRITING:- writing requires more than just vocabulary and grammar, there are around 7 kinds of essay topic and each and every one of them have different patterns and to learn them is the key to score bands above 8.
    IELTS SPEAKING:- examiner’s focus is to check your native English skills. How well can you converse like a native English speaker. Examiner expects set of idioms, storytelling and a flow in your conversation.
    IELTS READING AND LISTENING:- as much as practice makes perfect in both reading and writing, however, to solve each different kind of task, be it MCQ’s, true-false, headings. There is a pattern and a specific way to effortlessly look for your answers and save time.

    I’ve trained a lot of students and most of them have scored above 8 bands, as a psychologist I understand every learner have different needs and different techniques they learn through. Instead of copy pasting a curriculum I use personalised approach to simplify everything to my students.

Found the best tutor for myself

She has to be my favourite tutor of all time,I found her only to get my essay corrected and evaluated but when she explained me so briefly she told me things I had no clue about that I’m doing it so incorrectly.I enrolled myself for her IELTS program. I scored 8.5 bands in total. She prepared me to take test in just a month. Her website (brilliance bound ielts)has the best content available, latest updates/ study material everything in one place. It’s great when you find a tutor who understand you and help you accordingly. She is very cooperative and easy to talk to. Not only she helped me with IELTS she made me believe in myself in a complete different way. I have a strong command over language and I feel way more confident now. Don’t think just go for it. She is the best in her field
