  @jhazz01 nag enrol ako ng course sa My Atheneum. Based sila sa Cebu so online class sya. Kinuha ko 'yung pinaka basic, 5 or 6k pesos ata? ok naman kasi na-assess nila ko, pero pansin ko same din 'yung tinuturo nila sa book na "Ace the IELTS". may copy ako if you want
  tapos watch din ako ng actual YouTube speaking tests, isa sa pinanuod ko ang actual question sakin sa speaking. plus podcasts, phone apps at praktis with hubby hehe.

  @KHIM you mean listening ang reading? Sa BC ka ba nagexam? Dun sa account mo sa kanila pwede mo icheck kung ano equivalent band score ng points. Magkaiba yung dalawa eh.
