After taking the IELTS Test four times and always falling short either in my speaking test or my writing test, I requested help from Alanna. I was really inspired by her suggestions, advice and improvement strategies. I finally got 7.0 in each test, which has allowed me to apply for permanent residency in Australia.
Alanna is an amazing tutor, who gives a great service and effort. My family and I are very grateful to her.

I came to Alanna for lessons after various unsuccessful attempts to get the 8.0 (in all four skills) required by Australian immigration. After only a short time, I took my test again and scored L: 9, R: 9, W: 8.5 and S: 8.5, overall 9.0! I’m very happy!

What can I say? Alanna’s teaching gets results! Thank you, thank you, thank you.
Luca, Italy.
I had taken the IELTS test three times when I contacted Alanna. My writing was always a 6 (I needed 7), even though my other skills were 7s and 8s. I just didn’t know where I was going wrong. Alanna really helped me get my writing in order; showing me how to shape my ideas etc.
I’m SO happy; now I can apply for immigration to Australia. Thanks Alanna!

Dear Ms Alanna,
I am currently preparing the IELTS test and already try several times to achieve the four 7 on the general training test for the purpose of immigration to Australia, However, mostly I failed in the Writing and got the scores around 6,while other sections can above 7.
I did my best on the practice as well as following the template to achieve the goal, nevertheless the writing just like the nightmare for me to overcome.
I come cross your profile in the Facebook,hopefully you can do me a favor? I would like to get the constructive advice from your perspective in terms of writing structure, grammar or even the tips.
Yours Sincerely,
Robert

Hello Alanna im following many of your videos, And i already fixed my test on 9 of august. I feel that my speaking is not enough to get 7 and i have problem with my spelling in some practices test. I have to get 7, i want to go to the university and without these score is almost impossible.
Thank so much for any advice
Dear Alanna,
I sat for IELTS (academic) the last 30th of June, and I scored under my expectations (and my needs) in writing and speaking, which marks were 5.5 in each one, while I need 7 in average and no band lower than 6.5. Reading and listening were good, 7 and 7.5 respectively.
I will sit again on 25th August, so I need some help. I am thinking about study by myself and submit my writings to some teacher (for example you) to be marked. If were possible, I would like to have some practice in speaking as well, maybe through skype.
Can you help me? What are the costs? Any suggestions are welcome!!.
By the way!, I am in New Zealand and I’m from Uruguay, so my native language is Spanish.
I’m looking forward hearing about you.
Thanks
