关于考官Nick

Nick在British Council 工作了10年，是前雅思高级考官，改过无数的雅思考卷，非常清楚考官判分要求。

他有超过二十年的教学经验，去过不同的亚洲国家教英文。他专门教授亚洲人的口语，特别清楚我们学英语的困难和弱点。他此前曾于全球著名的国际学校、顶级大学以及世界五百强的机构教授学生、CEO人数超过十万。他的很多雅思学生也在跟他学习了很短的时间内进步超过一分，有些更是拿了British Council的雅思奖学金出国。



关于the worldpath

theworldpath.com 是香港政府重點支持的網上教學機構，由美國、英國、加拿大、澳洲的雅思前考官組成，在香港多間中學及大學舉辦雅思課程，學生成績優秀，曾經接受過香港多個媒體報導。推薦他們的學生除了有清華北大的，也有香港大學及香港中文大學，更有斯坦福大学、康奈尔大学和伯克利加大的。他們堅持只用接受過嚴格雅思改卷訓練的考官教口語跟寫作，因為他們很清楚考官喜歡怎樣的口語跟寫作，可以幫學生打做一個考官會給高分的exam，但是絕對不用模板。



ESSENTIAL ACADEMIC VOCABULARY  FOR IELTS

Vocabulary is the fast-track to improving all your language skills! The more vocab you know, the more you can read, listen, speak and write.

The examiner will give you higher marks for using and understanding the more academic style of vocabulary. My experience with learning vocab in another language is this: don’t try to learn very long lists everyday, you will forget most of them. 6-8 words a day, but really learn how to use them in sentences is best. Imagine the improvement in your vocabulary and ability to speak English after doing this for a few months!
