Hello Everyone, I want to evaluate my credentials, but I have questions on that which are;

I included my spouse, do I need to evaluate his credentials too?, do he need to take an English test?

Can anyone help on how to contact Esuth online for my transcript.
Thanks for your time.
1. Yes and yes.

2. Get a physical contact in your school

Make we no dey pray for basic things we can prepare for and get done. God gave us life then lets us push ourselves to achieve. Prayers no dey change IELTS scores o, but ample preparation does grin.

I know am going to get bashed for this but hey! e be things, lol

Prayer can indeed help you ace your IELTS. Let me share my experience with you.

My first IELTS was in Nov. 2019 and the result was a disaster. I had Listening:7 Reading:6 Writing:7.5 Speaking:8. I was very disappointed in the Listening and Reading as I felt I put in all my best in the preparation. In retrospect, I think I focused majorly on Writing.

Our CRS score was 375 or so and we were pursuing PNPs. When the PNP-Saskatchewan route fell apart due to COVID, our relative lost his job, we then resolved I should retake the IELTS.

I did the paper-based version of the exam in June 2020. So this time around I prepared for Listening and Reading with a different approach. I solved all the Cambridge IELTS Past Questions that I could lay my hands on. I remembered watching one of Liz's videos on Youtube and she said: "The Listening test is a test of plurals". You have to learn to listen for plurals if you want a band 8 and above. That statement stuck with me all through my preparation. I observed that it's very difficult for me to get a pluralized word whilst listening. So I constantly check the context of the word and try to add the 's'. That strategy didn't work all the time during the preparation as I missed some questions by adding 's'.

On the day of the exam, I kept revising all the strategies I had written down whilst preparing but this 'plural' strategy was something I knew is not 100% certain. I kept praying that God should guide me through making the right decision because I knew the "test of plural" will surely come out. My wife and little children were also praying back at home. She kept telling me to revise my Listening as if they will repeat questions. grin grin.

So after the Listening test, there was a question I wasn't sure either to append 's' on the compound word or not. I thought about it but was not convinced. So while doing the Reading, a phrase jumped at me with exactly the same construction as the Listening question I was doubting, and 's' was added to the word. Meanwhile, you are not supposed to flip to the Listening section answer sheet (they use the same answer sheet for both Listening and Reading) once you have started the Reading. And now that I'm sure I needed to add 's', what should I do? I ascertained no invigilator was watching me and I affixed the 's' to the word and continued my Reading section.

The results came out as Listening:8, Reading:7.5, Writing:7.5, Speaking:7.5. If I had not done what I did, I'd not have gotten 8 in Listening and that results would have been useless. And that'd have ended my Canadian dream. I know it's Prayer that did that for me.

Our CRS jumped to 446 immediately after that. Wife also did and had Listening:7, Reading:7, Writing:6.5, Speaking: 7. The CRS increased to 464 and we got picked up by Ontario in October last year and got the nomination in March this year. It's been a draining and stressful journey so far but at the centre of it for us is PRAYER. AOR: 28th April 2021. #prayerworks #foreverhoepful #Godisable

Don't get me wrong, I never joke with prayers. My point is, if you don't put in the works and just pray the scores will magically change, it will NOT!. God is Holy and will not cheat on anyone's behalf. That was my point.

Hi guys! So I finally decided to give Canada a try! Been through some serious depression so i couldn’t even focus on doing the process but thank God I’m good now and I’m ready to get a new life out of the amoeba.

I actually finished school in Turkey and as they no dey give foreigners job like that, I come back come serve and been job hunting with nothing tangible really happening, na so i learn graphics designing o… funny enough my skills don strong and I dey even get really good clients from time to time.

I just felt like I had to do this quick intro just you guys can feel me small.

Alright, for WES, I’ve been trying to get in contact with the uni i graduated from in Turkey but haven’t been able to reach them. I wanted to know if faxing the transcripts is actually a thing now, not like they have to send it via mail? I just want to make sure I don’t put too much responsibility on them once I get in contact with them. That’s the main obstacle in my way. Any advice or suggestions would

I dont think getting a Canadian work Visa or permit from Nigeria is realistic again at this time as processing time is now 52 weeks...whereas for Ghana, Kenya still remains 8 weeks. No employer in canada would want to wait 1 year before his new staff gets work permit before resumption when there are candidates who can get it in a few weeks

Sorry, is this the actually official time now 52 weeks? Can you confirm this or it's just hearsay?
