Becoming an independent learner

Many of the people who contact me are self-study students, often living in places where they do not
have easy access to resources or teachers. Nevertheless, even if you are studying in an IELTS
class, with expert IELTS teachers, you will only achieve a high level if you take responsibility for
your own learning. At the lower levels, teachers tend to ‘spoon-feed’ information to their students,
giving them everything they need to learn. But, at the higher levels, it is important to be an
independent learner and learn more than your teacher can give you in a lesson.
