Master IELTS Speaking — The Band 9 System.
I’m Matthew Alberto — Filipino-Australian polyglot and founder of SpeakPrac, the AI IELTS Speaking app.
I help professionals (nurses, doctors, engineers, teachers) and serious students achieve Band 7–9 in IELTS Speaking using clear, repeatable systems — not talent, memorization or luck.
I was born in the Philippines and grew up in Australia. I was once denied a job because they assumed I couldn't speak English well based on how I look. So, I proved them wrong with a Perfect Band 9 in IELTS Speaking, along with Band 9 for all 4 speaking marking criteria.
I’ve taught English across Australia, Asia, and Latin America, studied at top universities (UCL, UNSW, USYD), and worked in Ed-Tech and memory science, including with Gabriel Wyner (Fluent Forever).
This channel focuses on exam psychology, AI & human feedback, and practical frameworks to help learners who overthink or struggle under speaking pressure perform confidently on test day.
