What are people saying about my online writing course?“I was an online student of Ryan’s. I took my IELTS and got R-8 L-8 W-8 S-7.5. He gave me very valuable feedback when I gave him my essays and letters for review. I highly recommend him and his lessons.” -Mike (China)“Thanks to your guidance, I was able to increase my writing score from 6.5 to 7.5 and then to 8.5! I really don’t believe it!” -Imam (Pakistan)Your remarks were what got me my 7.5 in writing. You changed my writing pattern, and I will always thank you for this support.” -Priya (India)“I got 7 in writing because of your advice. Thank you, Ryan.” -Kiccha (India)“I got 7.5 in writing and 100% recommend Ryan’s online work!” -Sunish (India)I love reading these sorts of messages! Sharing in the joy of my online students when they achieve that 7, 8 and (yes!) 9 is one of my life’s simple pleasures. I want you to succeed on your IELTS.Over the past four years, I’ve had the privilege of working with several hundred students online. Through my corrections and comments, these students were able to clearly see the exact areas they needed to improve to get their required band.Every student’s recipe for success was different. It’s that personal touch that makes my course unlike any other: I can tell you what you need to do to improve. I’ve spent the last 10 years honing my skills as an IELTS instructor, and I hope to spend the rest of my life sharing IELTS insight with the world.Band 8 is not impossible when you know how. So are you ready to work hard? Our time together won’t be easy. It’s a grueling and sometimes frustrating process, and I don’t sugarcoat anything. Whether your goal is 6.5, 7 or 8, I’m going to push you towards 9. Your success in the examination room is my priority.Meet Ryan:I was born and raised in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada and began my ESL career teaching newly arrived Canadians while finishing my studies at university. I moved to Dubai in the summer of 2005 and had the opportunity to teach with some wonderful international universities on the Knowledge Village campus. With the University of Wollongong Dubai (Australian), I conducted courses in IELTS essay writing. At St Petersburg State University Dubai (Russian), I taught essay writing, grammar, conversation and pronunciation courses. And at SZABIST Technical Institute (Pakistani), I taught technical English writing.My online IELTS endeavors started after some of my Wollongong students encouraged me to post my lessons on YouTube. I began receiving emails from IELTS test takers around the world and realized that there was a need for quality online IELTS material. It has been a wonderfully reward trip since then.After a terrific 2.5 years living in Dubai, I decided to relocate to Shanghai. I continued to teach IELTS and work on my IELTS writing blog over the course of my 5 years in China and began branching out into corporate language training, which was dynamic and very exciting. I had the pleasure of working on site with companies like Microsoft, Nokia, NEC, Glaxo Smith KleinIn mid 2012, I got married (yes!) and moved with my wife to Doha. This past year, I have focused on becoming more committed to my online IELTS endeavors. I released several new IELTS websites (like this one), an IELTS forum (come join if you haven’t already!) and an IELTS related podcast.I feel very enthusiastic about the blending of international language and culture and hope my online work helps support the growing human family. I look forward to working with you and helping you nail your IELTS score.Ratio free: http://www.englishryan.com/
