A quantitative method was employed, and data was collected by means of questionnaires (Dweik & Barghouthi, 2014). Spss 23 was applied to analyze quantitative data relating to the research. Research result demonstrated that participants demonstrated more positive acknowledgment to native IELTS tutors in comparison with non-native IELTS tutors.
