Thank you for the informative video. I am due for a one skill retake on Speaking. I desperately need a 8 as I got a 7.5. I honestly thought I had given it my all. Do you offer face to face lessons so I can improve in this regard? I think I would benefit more from lessons from a native speaker. Your assistance will be greatly appreciated. Please note, I exhausted all my Speaking tests from IELTS Ready Premium. I even redid them before taking my tests. I recorded myself and listened to my recordings and then corrected myself.
