IELTS Tutoring with Manhattan Review IELTS Tutors

IELTS Tutoring with a personalized approach

Manhattan Review has created its own, student-centered strategy on how to thoroughly and efficiently help IELTS students prepare through private tutoring. This strategy has been developed and fine-tuned since the company's founding in 1999 and has helped thousands of students master both the language content and tips and tricks required to achieve a high score on the IELTS and use those scores for higher education or a future career in an English-speaking country. So why should you choose to prepare with Manhattan Review rather than the other IELTS prep companies you have researched? We closely follow the time-tested management process: gather data, plan, execute and monitor. This certainly might sound like a strategy that all of the test prep companies utilize, but you will find that many of the IELTS tutors do not make each session unique and choose to teach the exact same lesson plan to all of their students instead of taking the time to develop a personalized path forward for each one. The order in which the content, and the content itself, is taught is come up with on the fly rather than following a plan that was created specifically for the student before the sessions begin. Manhattan Review, in contrast, ensures that the sessions with its private tutors follow a clearly defined and mutually agreed upon lesson plan in order to create a unique, individualized experience, which leads to more confidence with the language, higher scores and just overall more motivation to take on the IELTS.

The first step is to take part in an initial IELTS prep consultation, during which students will speak with one of our experienced advisors who will have a discussion with you on your expectations, grasp of the English language and academic background. The next step would be to get connected with one of our expert IELTS tutors whose teaching style and profile fits your individual needs and expectations. To start things off, our tutors work closely with students to create realistic, yet ambitious goals in order to develop a unique strategy to reach them, which is based on identifying and reviewing all parts of the IELTS and English language that are deemed challenging for students. Then the sequence in which the topics will be covered is determined in order to allow for maximum retention of the material as well as smooth transitions between content. The result of this planning process with the student is a comprehensive schedule of the sessions and topics that will be covered during each one. Again, this is the complete opposite to the unstructured approach that many other test prep companies choose to utilize and they often sell this as being flexible on each topic for each student during the sessions and willing to change things up on the fly. Our tutoring sessions have the target of getting the most out of both the student and tutor in the most efficient way possible. By reviewing and mastering both critical test taking techniques and fundamental aspects of the English language in a sequence that perfectly fits with the student's needs during the tutoring program, you will have all of the tools necessary to achieve those high score required for higher academic institutes, careers or simply everyday life in an English-speaking country.

Manhattan Review IELTS Tutors – high quality test takers, but even better teachers

Manhattan Review is best-known for its highly selective process for hiring instructors and tutors. We expect both top scores on the IELTS and extensive knowledge of its content from our tutors, but also, and more importantly, a passion for seeing their students improve their language and test taking skills throughout the tutoring program through the creativity and thoroughness of the curriculum and sessions. When hiring tutors, Manhattan Review does a true 360-degree evaluation with the candidates being chosen possessing both extensive knowledge regarding grammar, vocabulary and comprehension of the English language, but also elite teaching and communication skills. The combination of ample teaching experience with a variety of ESL students of different English levels and academic backgrounds and top scores on the exam itself is the recipe Manhattan Review seeks out in order to ensure that every student gets the necessary attention they deserve from a professional on both the IELTS and the IELTS preparation process for test takers with a wide variety of goals, whether they be academic or career oriented. Through many years of preparing IELTS and TOEFL students, we have learned that the ability to successfully take and score highly on an exam and the teaching skill of efficiently and effectively conveying that information to a student looking to take the IELTS are very different sets and would even claim that we prefer to hire those candidates who have maybe scored a few points less but have the skill and passion for teaching the relevant content to students in a style that is both enjoyable and highly beneficial to the preparation process.

Manhattan Review has vast experience in the IELTS and TOEFL test prep industry and you will see what makes us unique by looking at the history of the firm. Manhattan Review's founding can be traced back to Columbia Business School in New York City by the creator of the company who was teaching courses there. He was not only pedagogically trained at Columbia University but went on to become a successful professor at a graduate school in Europe. Through his positions in academia, he had to participate in many hiring committees for academics and be highly involved in assessing teaching potential of applicants for academic positions in higher education, which is experience that you just cannot accumulate or simulate in any other context. This is a major reason why Manhattan Review tutoring is the most popular and effective choice for IELTS students looking to both improve their test scores and also their grasp of the English language, which will be highly beneficial in future academic and professional journeys.

Here are some of the highlights of working with Manhattan Review IELTS Tutors:

IELTS Tutoring Sessions: flexibly schedule sessions

Our private tutoring programs are designed to be customized in order to meet the expectations and goals of every specific student. With our tutors having ample successful experience with assessing student needs and creating individualized study plans, students are taking advantage of a tutoring program that has them and their IELTS success as the highest priority. Our IELTS tutors make use of various tools to assist them in creating unique and accurate lesson plans, which provide the student with optimal allocation of time on the different topics and sound structure to the preparation time leading up to the IELTS. By implementing practice tests, a variety of practice questions on content you struggle with and having in-depth conversations about the student's experience with the language, tutors provide their students with the best chance to attain an elite score on the IELTS. The customized lesson plans also account for the sequence in which the material would be covered during the sessions, which is based on what the student requires in order to optimize the process for every specific student depending on their needs and learning style.

The flexible scheduling offered by our private tutoring programs is perfect for those IELTS students who have a busy schedule through work or studies. Even if you are having sessions at a low frequency, your tutor will hold you accountable for the assignments you agreed to do via other means of communication, which serves as a great motivating factor for the time you have to prepare for the IELTS. Manhattan Review continues to work on and improve the curriculum, teaching methods and overall preparation process that is utilized by our tutors in order to keep our place on top of the competition, as we have since being founded in 1999.

IELTS Tutors: in-person or online via Zoom

Manhattan review can offer its tutoring programs in-person in your area, online via Zoom or a combination of both depending on preference. In-person sessions use to be the most popular form of preparation, but since the pandemic there has been an increasing trend toward online learning as students started to see the advantages. Firstly, current learning technology makes the online sessions feel nearly identical to the in-person ones. The online platform where our online tutoring sessions take place has all the tools necessary including a whiteboard, on which both you and your tutor can interact with writing just like you would on a piece of paper on the table in a classroom. Live video, which allows you and the tutor to see each other in real time making sure you get all nonverbal cues during the sessions, which creates a more personal experience, such as the one you would get while having sessions in a physical setting. The other, and perhaps most important reason that students have shifted their preference almost exclusively toward online tutoring is the flexibility when deciding for a tutor. Manhattan Review has a large pool of highly qualified IELTS tutors who are trained and motivated to work with students in any time zone as the online option gives students the option of having even more flexible scheduling because of the time saved from the commute to a physical setting in the city. With in-person tutoring you are certainly limited to those tutors who live in your area, which is determined by the number of people there who are looking for IELTS tutoring, whereas online tutoring opens you up to deciding between a wide variety of backgrounds and teaching styles to ensure that you have an instructor who understands your specific requirements and expectations when it comes to both the English language and IELTS. While student preference has shifted tremendously towards online tutoring programs and considering the arguments mentioned in this text, Manhattan Review has you covered no matter what your preference may be, and we are just as happy to pair you with our highly experienced local tutors for in-person sessions.
