Hi Keith,
I got my IELTS results and scored L8.5,R8.5,W7 and S7.5. I am eternally grateful to you for all your speaking tips. I am on cloud nine now :)

Frustration is a common feeling for English learners, but where there's a will, there's a way! The bigger step to overtake is just when you are frustrated, so turn on your learning into a fun way! Good luck 😊

This is by far THE BEST (SECOND TO NONE) video that I have seen on idioms and how to use them in a normal conversation and describing people.
Thank you for such great content.
I just love how you linked some of the idioms to make sentences. That's actually conducive to the study process.
This is my first time here and I found this one to be the most useful resource for IELTS preparation...Your way of teaching isn't monotonous instead it's interesting. Definitely I must say you are second to none when it comes to IELTS teaching.

My friend always stood first in the class presentations,although during discussion, tough questions are asked but he never confused and always think on his feet and left the audience awestruck,I must say he is as bright as a button,but I sometimes presume that this characteristic is God gifted and runs in his family.
I passed the IELTS exam with flying colors! Thanks to you Mr. Keith O'Hare because your way of teaching is second to none!

Hi Keith! Brilliant video as usual, it's second to none when it comes to explanation of idioms. I have been trying my hands on the British accent and hence I enjoy listening to you.
By the way, it seems an old colleague of yours who used to be highly strung and her bosom friends are the only ones who have disliked your video 😉 certainly others would never do that 😇
As a nurse I should think on my feet most of the time especially during emergency situations,
