You will sit in an IELTS exams, you did not prepare for it, and you have the nerve to ask for advice on taking the exams?

What a bunch of bollocks!

I will tell you what a proper forum is: it is the articulation of ideas, opinions, beliefs, views and convictions with full candor no matter how strongly-held, honest, unpalatable, or disagreeable these are.

If we use our personal tastes and preferences to dictate what a proper forum is, then that is the end of freedom of expression.

Anyone has the freedom to ask a stupid question. I reserve my right to say that the question is stupid. That's what a proper forum is.

I'm an IELTS trainer, and based on my experience, very few people get away with passing the IELTS without any preparation at all. Even professionals like doctors, lawyers, and the like fail the test! So if you have no time to train with an institution, you should at least study on your own, first, to familiarize yourself with the format of the test. Secondly, to avoid the pressure of time constraints during the actual test. And lastly, of course, to increase the probability of you meeting your desired band score. Good luck!

These are not complete sentences. Did you just say you're an IELTS trainer?

So perfect9center, how would you re-write your earlier post? I'm planning to take IELTS review and I will consider your company depending on how you will revise your message. Thanks.

A person claiming to be a professional IELTS trainor does not need to be 'formal' to come up with complete sentences.

If those were the kind of sentences one would get from a paid-for IELTS training - then all I can say : What a load of crap!.

No, you got it all wrong. I am not friendly. helpful? that's relative and subjective.

Sa mga Pinoy, para hindi natin ma-encounter ang mga "sira ulong" banyaga na nakikisawsaw sa usapan natin dito, iwasang mag-post dito ng English para hindi nila maintindihan ang pinaguusapan natin dito. Taglish at slang na lang ang gamitin natin. Or purong tagalog ang gamitin natin. PARA NA RIN SA ATING SEGURIDAD. Maraming salamat.
