I got 8 in speaking thanks to your videos. Thank you Keith! ❤️
May you help me?
Unbelievable ! What did you say?, Band 8 scores in IELTS which I can't even imagine such a lovely score will I get or not though I am trying to get a handsome score near that. To be honest it's a great mind blowing score and the true fact is that u are a nice alien ❤️ 😂.
Great teacher, I got eight in speaking.
I really like him, I reckon he is amazing at teaching, funny at best.
very nice tips Keith! I prepared speaking part of IELTS by listening to the audio of ONLY your videos everyday while commuting, I got 8 bands in speaking! I thank you for all the tips...!!
what were you asked ?
Wow ..congrates btw
Wow that's amazing
I got 7.5 speaking score just listening your videos. Thank you so much dear teacher🤗
That's great - well done!
Got my results last Friday: Band Eight.
Did not at all expect this Band because I really perceived my Speaking Parts pants. But the lovely lady I talked to decided to give me 7.5 nevertheless.
Got 9 in hearing (which is faaaar better than in practicing) and 8.5 in reading (never really practiced this part to be honest).
My tip: Do not drive yourself crazy. It will work out better than you might think.
Then how will i drive?

Hi dear Keith,
I passed IELTS and these are my new scores: S 6.5, L 6.0, R 7.0, W 6.5, overall 6.5. Maybe these scores are below my expectations, I mean my expectation from myself is higher, but there’s no doubt your courses helped me to improve my previous scores to these new ones. Now, with this new score I can apply for university, because I’ve got the minimum score they need for admission. Now without stress of exam, I can follow your courses and continue to study English with you to improve my language and deepen my knowledge.
At the end, I’m so grateful and thank you for your help and inspiration. I love you. Take care 💙🌹🙏
Congo !! I am practicing hard . I need to score 8.5 GT
You are one of the best teachers I have ever met. Your children are so lucky to have you as a father
Adamın dibisin Keith! We love you!
Thank you Keith for uploading such informative videos! You are indeed a great teacher! :)
Kieth, you are an amazing teacher ever, I have seen in my life. By and large you're just awesome.
Hi Sir Keith @EnglishSpeakingSuccess just got my IELTS academic result. I took the exam last July 25. I was able to achieved my desired OBS and I am very surprised with my speaking BS 😍Thank you so much Sir you're a blessing ❤️ God bless you more ❤️
(L7, R7, W6, S8 OBS7)
Well Keith a massive thanks for sharing your knowledge and time.I think I'm addicted listening to your voice the whole day. More power and keep safe always
HI Keith. I've really loved this one, I love the format and that way to teach through chunks using them in a progressive manner. Hopefully you can make more videos focus on chunks, I find them really useful for the speaking part. Thanks for your work
Thanks Keith, I am catching up with watching all videos from you. They are great and I am learning and improving my vocabulary and speech.
Keith, you're simply amazing! Such a wonderful combination of tips and tricks for IELTS Speaking! Really helped me get my desired band. And keep us entertaining with your funny bits and bobs as well.
Normally when i want to see your lessons I give it thumb up first and them continue to watch it, ultimately the result will be amazing!!!
Thank you for sharing these valuable ideas
Hi Keith, I'm kinda happy to let you know that I've completed my speaking test today. The tips and tricks shared by you are simply wow. I'm here to enrich my vocabulary. Thank you for being a Wonderful teacher :)
thank you so much for your devotion. Your video is so beneficial. I gained vast knowledge from watching it.
Very useful video. Really helped me to improve my speaking. Thank you Keith 🙏
first of all, i want to say thank you for all your videos. they're really useful to us especially that you specified and gave examples on how to incorporate them in daily conversations. sometimes i just read lectures saying we have to use connectors to boost our fluency but we're not so sure if, when we use them, do they sounds natural? or awkward?
but to be honest, in your lectures, you dissect them one by one and now, we know how to use them.
I will be taking my IELTS academic exam this month and honestly, I need to manage my anxiety especially when talking in front of an actual examiner. I am quite skeptic with my fluency and knowledge, but then I still pray that I can surpass all this. Thank you Adam for all your inputs and tips and will definetely apply them on my exam day. God bless you always and continue to inspire and be a blessing to others.
My favourite teacher ever!
Wonderful ! Thanks for happy classes !!
At the end of the day, I reckon you are the best teacher I've ever seen. By and large, I've been mulling this over recently and what I reckon is that, it would enhance my speaking score. ❤❤
Hello❤ I would like to thank you for all the helps I have derived from your videos... You speak so easily & always with a smile that holds your audience attension..i used to listen to you like podcasts...
I wish I found you before, I only listened to you for 1 week maybe, then appeared in my IELTS speaking..I only used two idioms, but thanks to you
So blessed to have a incredible teacher like you🤗..you are such an angel sent by lord..I have never experienced such a drastic change in myself just by watching your videos for few days or so..by intensive practice and your generous support,I am confident that I could make it😊your content and the way you teach is something out of the world😎I will definitely implement your strategies as they are immensely helpful 🙏🏻you are really good at your craft Keith..I am eternally grateful for your deed👍🏻Jesus bless you🙏🏻THANKS AGAIN

By and large, I reckon, I could use this connectors and phrases for my ielts speaking interview as well as in writing session. Thanks a brunch for sharing. :)
As I noticed in your speaking... You speak as a real conversation without using any high range of vocabulary and it's very beneficial for understanding .. each and every word of your speaking is understandable ..that is the only thing due to this I like ur videos and prefer to listen only your sessions ☺️☺️
Keith, you're simply out of this world, mind you no one can hold a candle to you
Thank you so much, Keith!
