Here is an excerpt from the interview with Payal Goda.
Q1. When and how did you start as an IELTS trainer?
Ans: It has been a decade since I have been training & preparing candidates for IELTS. I worked for almost seven years at the overseas education industry where I trained students for tests such as IELTS, TOEFL, PTE & VERBAL PART OF GRE & SAT. After gaining extensive experience in helping students to get their target scores in their first attempt, I started my classes. I have been running my own institute for three years.
Q2. What skills are required to become an IELTS trainer?
Ans: As IELTS is an English test, the necessary skills required are proficiency in all areas of the English language like reading, listening, writing and speaking. IELTS is a structured test so, to train people on that, one must first have all detailed understanding of the exam with thorough practice in each area.
Q3. What do you think makes you stand out from other IELTS trainers on UrbanPro.com?
Ans: My methodology is, I conduct one to one classes that focus entirely on an individual’s weak and strong areas. IELTS is a demanding test; thus, I make my students practice abundantly so that they are confident, certain & all ready for the D-day. I start with a diagnostic test of IELTS to gauge students’ potential in all the areas of the test. After a complete assessment, I start with my training program that caters to the needs and requirements of the student.
My training program is entirely customised & results-driven. I endeavour to enable my student to get his/her desired scores in the first attempt itself. My dedication & commitment to results and my personalised sessions make my classes stand out from the rest.
Q4. How did you come across UrbanPro.com?
Ans: I was in search of a platform that could help me reach out to candidates who are looking for the classes I provide. As UrbanPro is one of the most popular platforms on google with high ratings & numerous positive feedback, I could immediately connect with it.
Q5. What was the turning point in your career?
Ans: Opening UrbanPro’s tutor account was my turning point. This move gave a significant boost to my training career. I could reach to students from all parts of the globe through UrbanPro.
Q6. How did UrbanPro.com help you expand your teaching classes?
Ans: I got an overwhelming response as soon as I made my profile public on UrbanPro. I got many students, both local & international, through this platform. The best part of this educational platform is, it is easily accessible, economically affordable & result oriented. It is one of the best platforms any tutor can make use of to expand his/ her classes or tutorials.
Q7. What percentage of your work comes from UrbanPro.com?
Ans: About 50-60% of my work comes from UrbanPro.com
