TPS- Find an IELTS Tutor in Outer Gatineau (Hull, Plateau, Alymer)
There are many IELTS classes now being offered in the Ottawa Gatineau area, and yet the demand for home tutors remains strong. Why?
Many students feel that group classes waste their time and money. We all have skills and strategies that need individual attention. No two learners are ever the same in terms of strengths, weaknesses, level, and learning style. Ultimately, many students feel that taking classes, even in very reputable institutions, does not address their concerns. Studying with a tutor in your home is more convenient and efficient.

Before you find a time ...
You need to settle a number of issues before finding a tutor.
1. Is it necessary for me to take IELTS?
There are other alternatives to IELTS in almost every situation. For example, most universities offer a choice between IELTS and TOEFL. The immigration test now offers CELPIP. If you have a teen who has stayed in Gatineau for more than 2 years, he or she does not need to take IELTS in many institutions (UBC requires 3 years, but many others require less). It may be worthwhile to put your effort into English 12 marks and provincial exams than studying for IELTS.
2. Which areas do I need the most work on?
If you do not know the answer to this question, try taking an IELTS sample test. What you thought were your weaknesses might actually be strengths. Remember that the provincial exams are different from the IELTS.
3. Do I know this test well?
If you have taken classes before than you probably do, but if you have not, research the test by going to the TPS IELTS page.

We are currently enrolling students for February 2019. Please see the programs page for online tutoring and the rates. Online tutoring can take place anytime from 7:00 am to 11:00 pm ET. If you are from Vancouver, remember that you are 3 hours behind.
IELTS home tutoring lessons are 2 hours at $60/hr or $120/lesson. During the first meeting, we provide a free consultation with the tutor to determine a schedule and program. We can arrange an initial full IELTS test in the 4 sub-skills (reading, writing, listening, and speaking) if you require it, but we bill it according to the cost of an IELTS lesson. We give analysis and consultation in the subsequent lesson after the test is marked.
