Hi, my name Nuke Lydia, I was paying for my IELTS test on January 25th, 2026 But the status it's didn't change… they said I need to pay. I already paid for it Why the customer service so bad, I already chatted, call and emailed them….
I have recently taken the IELTS test here, and unfortunately, it was a disappointing experience. One of the staff members displayed unprofessional and unfriendly behavior, especially toward test takers from other countries. She examined our passports with what appeared to be a disrespectful attitude. I was particularly dissatisfied with the speaking test. The examiner seemed to show a lack of respect for international candidates. He often appeared dismissive or condescending in his facial expressions when I answered the questions. This made the testing environment uncomfortable and discouraging. Although I only received a 6.5 on the IELTS, I believe this result was negatively affected by the testing experience and the unprofessional conduct at the test center. Afterwards, I took the Duolingo English Test and scored 150 out of 160. I highly recommend the Duolingo test to other international students, as most universities in the U.S. now accept it as valid proof of English proficiency.
I was a student of ELS. The school was pretty nice, the teachers were the best. However, I had problems with the apartments since the beginning. These apartment was from ELS. I asked a lot of times to they solve all the problems that I had but only 3 days before I left the city they decided to change me. The apartment had problems with water leak in my bathroom. It took almost 2 month to they solve the problem. After that, I had problem with my roomate and asked them to change me from the apartment since the begging of the December. It took two month to change me, the school new it since the begging and didn’t help me. They only changed the place 3 days before I came home. I got really disappointed with the way they were behaving with me. Also, I heard that someone called me problematic inside of the teachers room. I’m really sad that I’ve been through all of this, because it maid my exchange program bad.
My experience at ELS has been amazing. The teachers are supportive, and the interactive classes make learning English both fun and effective. I've also had the chance to meet students from all over the world, which has broadened my perspective and helped me grow both academically and personally.
The best English school I had the opportunity to attend. Supportive and friendly staff, interactive classes, and a very diverse community of students and teachers helping each other in order to maximize the experience of learning. I recommend people to take some classes there before going to take IELTS or any other English proficiency exam. It will help you a lot with test methodology, and teachers there will give you so many tips about how to succeed on the test. Please, keep in mind that the experience of learning demands even more effort and engagement from students’ side than anyone else. So, make your decision, call these highly skilled people and experience the American culture along your journey.
