About José

Hello!

My name is Jose and I am a native British-trained, highly qualified English teacher and former IELTS examiner. I specialize in helping students unlock top-tier results in IELTS Reading & Writing. If you are stuck at a Band 6.5 and need a Band 7.5, 8.0, or 9.0 to fulfill your university or visa dreams, I provide the elite, targeted guidance you need to break through.

My program does not use cheap test-prep tricks or boring drills. Instead, I use the exact same advanced language methods taught by qualified educators in top international schools worldwide.Instead of memorizing static rules, students actively analyze high-level literature and real-life texts. This mirrors how the world’s most elite academies build true bilingual fluency, deep critical thinking, and advanced academic skills.

My academic and professional background includes:

BA (Honors) Degree — Middlesex University London, UK

PGCE with Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) — University of Nottingham, UK

Master’s Degree (M.Ed.) in TESOL — American College of Education, US

Current IBMYP and IBDP English Language and Literature teacher at an IB World School.

Official Ex-Examiner Status specifically marking international English assessments (Speaking and Writing).

As a former IELTS examiner and current IB English Language and Literature teacher, I saw a clear, undeniable pattern: students relying on memorized templates and rigid word lists get stuck at Band 6.5. This happens because examiners are explicitly trained to penalize robotic, copied answers.

To score a Band 7+, you must demonstrate authentic language production, natural fluency, and complex grammatical range.

My unique Literature-Based Method uses short stories, journalism, and elite texts to build high-scoring exam results and fluency—without the boring grind.

How My Method Works

For Speaking (Parts 2 & 3): We debate abstract themes from engaging stories to target the Lexical Resource and Fluency rubrics. Instead of repeating predictable exam prompts, you will learn to naturally deploy rare idiomatic expressions, high-level collocations, and sophisticated, topic-specific vocabulary. This method eliminates basic word choices, stops painful pauses, and builds advanced language required to secure a Band 7 or higher.

For Writing Task 1 (Charts & Graphs): We read top journalism, articles and analyze charts to see how professionals describe data. You will learn to break down graphs, pie charts, and tables smoothly—without repeating boring words like "increase" or "decrease."

For Writing Task 2 (Essays): We take advanced vocabulary and complex sentence structures from great literature, strip away the emotion, and turn them into formal academic essays. This trains you to write the exact error-free, sophisticated essays needed for a top Grammatical Range and Accuracy score.

No More Burnout:
Swapping dry IELTS practice booklets for engaging texts keeps students deeply motivated, meaning they study longer and improve faster.

University Ready:
This does not just pass a 3-hour exam; it builds the real-world fluency needed to write university papers and speak confidently abroad. Don't just repeat the test. Master the language.
