Hello, I'm Jacob Meunier. I'm the IELTS instructor here at Wall Street English
I'm from Boston Massachusetts in the U.S.
I've been teaching IELTS as well as academic reading and writing skills for
secondary school students and university students
both in Boston and here in Hong Kong for about ten years now. So what are the
benefits of taking IELTS Prep Support at Wall Street English
first of all and most importantly
this is an all-English environment
all the students speak English here the teachers speak English and the teachers
of the teachers are all native speakers of English, so first of all you are in
an environment where the target language is always being spoken and you are
expected to speak in that target language The second benefit of
taking classes with us
is that we have small classes
we have about twelve students per class
that gives you lots of opportunities for interaction and speaking English
with your instructor
with your classmates so you're not just another face in the crowd, you're not
lost in a big classroom and it helps you
boost your confidence in speaking
and it also helps for the instructors
because we're able to provide feedback to you
and we are able to give you individual attention that you can't get in a large classroom
One thing that you'll do a lot of in our IELTS class is writing essays
these essays will be taken home and graded by the instructor
and then you will get feedback on your work
you'll get advice and tips on how to improve your writing
and write a better essay for the IELTS
You'll also be able to do practice tests in class and the practice is a very
helpful because again they boost your confidence, make you feel better about
going into the test
and be able to anticipate the source of questions and material that
will be covered
under fairly realistic testing conditions
the great thing about Wall Street is the sense of community that you get here
it's a terrific school to teach at I love being here as a teacher and as for
the students it's also wonderful place everybody knows each other
everybody is friendly everybody is helpful
and the environment is really nice for studying and for spending time
We offer Social Club activities
which are conversation clubs and other interactive
class activities in informal basis that are taught in the afternoons and evenings
and as long as you're a Wall Street student
you can benefit from these classes so while you're taking IELTS Prep, you can
also attend Social Club activities
another advantage of taking IELTS Prep Support at Wall Street is that
our classes are intensive
You'll be able to finish in about six to eight weeks
preparing fully for the exam and that's helpful if you are under pressure to
take the exam quickly and you don't have many months to prepare
