Passing IELTS in Nigeria
While in Lagos, her (@__simply__dee) salary increased to N113k. She could not afford an apartment, so she rented a shared room with six other people. Life was hard for her.
A friend she later met gave her free accommodation. The lady passed her IELTS exam on the third attempt. Her CBT was passed at the first attempt.
After searching for jobs and sponsorship, the lady arrived in the UK in January 2024, and her whole life changed.
