Author, Band 9.0 Achiever (First Attempt - IELTS Speaking)
Hi students! My name is Julius. I am the author of this IELTS website. I am a non-native English speaker who achieved the highest band score (band 9.0) on the IELTS speaking test on my first attempt.
I graduated with a degree in Communication Arts from Cebu Normal University, one of the prestigious state universities in the Philippines. I am a licensed teacher and TESOL-certified.
I once worked at a UK-based company teaching business English to Japanese businessmen who primarily work at Nikkei, a popular media company in Japan.
I created this website to help you all achieve your desired band scores so you will NOT waste so much money, time, and effort for retaking the exam numerous times. All of the sample answers I provided on this website are a product of my experience as a band 9.0 achiever and an experienced IELTS speaking coach.
I've made sure that all of the sample answers are developed in a conversational and natural way because that is how I achieved a crisp band 9.0.
