Jimbo corrected my pronunciation and grammer mistakes which I often make in conversation. I hope that I can avoid them in the following classes.

Jimbo is a profession IELTS examiner. I could learn what is wrong with my speaking in IELTS speaking test. Every time I have a lesson he estimates and gives me a score. His mock test is similar to A REAL TEST. Highly recommended just before taking IELTS.
