Client Testimonials View
Aileen Jennifer Felipe, UK (Registered Nurse)
‘My first attempt in taking the IELTS was unsuccessful that I almost gave up on my dream. With perseverance and with the help of the British Council through IELTS, I was able to land my dream job in the United Kingdom. I am now working as a Hemodialysis Nurse and still aiming for other goals in life.’
Andrea Denise Ong, UK (Student)
‘IELTS opened the door for me to be able to study abroad. Taking the test helped me realise how powerful language is in connecting people from all over the world. I became more confident in my English ability, which helped me integrate better within the academic community.’
Jennie Equiz, Canada (Student)
‘IELTS is the reason I was able to continue my application to study college in Canada. Here in my new home, I found new friends in campus and have made new and wonderful experiences. I am looking forward to a rewarding career after I graduate.’

Lemelen Palad, Ireland (Immigrant)
‘It has always been my dream to work in the ‘Silicon Valley of Europe’. Now that I am here in Dublin, Ireland, I cannot help but smile looking back at how intense I prepared for the IELTS exam. All the hard work paid off because I have acclimated well since I arrived and loving every moment of my time here.’
