Mr Keith I love your face expression as an IELTS examiner

[upinderk]

I received an 8 band score in my speaking test just yesterday! 🥳🥳 Thank you so much Keith!
I’m glad I can help you guys! 😁

[tomiit]

Off the top of my head, I would say yes, the reason I think so is because nowadays computers is considered as an indispensable part of our life, especially for preparing my presentation to the students, let our communications become fast and easily accessible and so on.
Thanks Keith a lot, I appreciate your style in teaching and how you simplify it and really I follow most of your videos, my IELTS exam will be after 21 days, plz all pray for me.

[imadali]

You're such a great instructor. I never miss your videos

[toannguyenkhanh]

Thank you, Mr.Keith, you are such a great teacher. As usual, here is my summary of your lecture, yet, I'd recommend that people should watch his entire video to fully understand and remember it.

* I am not (too) sure, to be honest.
I reckon = I think (informal)

* I can't say for sure.
But it seems to me = I think.

By and large = Generally speaking.
My brain has been ticking over ~ My brain has been idled (work at slow speed).
Think on your feet / Think on the spot = think quickly.

* Off the top of my head, I would say [answer] ~ Without thinking too much, I would say. (~do it almost improvised without thinking clearly).
cut sb off ~ suddenly interrupt someone who is speaking.

* As far as I can see, [answer]. ~ As far as I can tell.
- ..., especially when it comes to ... :
Example: She helps me a lot, especially when it comes to studying.

* I'd (would) hazard a guess that [answer] ~ I'm guessing.
Example: I'd hazard a guess it's because of...
That may be the case (situation) = It might be true.

Practice questions:
1. Do think you computers make life easier?
2. Will we use computers more in the future?
3. Why do some people dislike computers?

[shayikhanum]

Off the top of my head, I would say yes, the reason is because they have made it easier for us to communicate and to do many everyday things..

[godservant]

I can't say for sure but it seems to me that you are the best ielets teacher I ever seen till now. The reason I think so is because you make us repeat each and every phrase in our tone to match your expectations...

[rodrocks]

Off the top of my head, I reckon this is the best channel to improve my english speaking! Thanks a bunch, Keith!

[nontsikelelochiteshe]

Off the top of my head I, I will say you are a perfectly intelligent person... Keith. Thank you. 😂

[dalyasadawi]

[oluwayomimo]

Thanks Keith for your videos. I stumbled on one of your videos few days to my test and I kept watching them till the day of my test. I am delighted to tell you that I scored 8 in speaking, thanks to you.

[themotherofginger]

All of your lessons that I've seen until now are well-structured. Quite honestly, your efforts should be appreciated more than assumed.

[emkhgbl]

Thanks a lot for your interesting, useful lessons and your generosity.
The answer to your last question: " I can't say for sure, but it seems to me that computers make our lives easier, but other times they complicate us for longer than we expect.☺

[ctpnybm]

You are terrific! Thank you for your lessons, they are very helpful!

Great assistance, and he really has perfect timing, stopping for "us" on the screen to say the phrases before going on. So good, so perfect this lesson is
