Here’s How Saloni Scored 8 Bands In IELTS Speaking
Introduction:
While most 16-year-olds navigate the ups and downs of high school, Saloni from Dubai, UAE, charted a unique course. Determined to plan for her future studies, Saloni’s journey highlights the impact of early preparation and dedicated effort.
