TOEFL Preparation + How and Why?

TOEFL Preparation: How and Why?

In several things in USA, students are needed to require and pass the TOEFL take a look at as a method of demonstrating a definite level of proficiency. However, there's abundant dialogue on how students will best prepare for the take a look at.

My response may well be slightly completely different than what you expect. initial of all, what I typically hear native professors and students say is how some international students will pass the take a look at however still cannot communicate in their categories. because it seems, what some internationals students do is simply prepare to pass the TOEFL, however still lack a communicative competence to operate within the everyday classroom. In alternative words, they're smart take a look at takers, however they cannot typically apply their language skills in real classroom.

Obviously, there's a disparity between the take a look at and therefore the sorts of language students can really encounter within the classroom. Recognizing this distinction, the TOEFL is being revised to truly take a look at students ability to synthesize and analyze data and then manufacture language based mostly on what they hear and skim.

With this in mind, maybe one in all the simplest ways that for college students to organize for the TOEFL is to actively have interaction in their regular classroom activities. Reading for pleasure, volunteering within the community, obtaining employment that needs interaction with others are all indirect ways that of making ready for the TOEFL. I still would advocate a TOEFL preparation book to familiarize yourself with the take a look at, however certify you're practicing your language skills in many various things.

Books for the TOEFL.

Books for the TOEFL.
If you want to prepare TOEFL test. I recommend this book. Do not just read other books.

The Official Guide to the TOEFL iBT By Educational Testing Service (ETS).

Why read this book?
Because this is a book out which is the ETS test is made so that they know best. Rules on how to make his score. It is divided into reading, listening, speaking, writing, I see that this is a huge advantage over other books because Of other publishers. He was trying to set up a similar question to the ETS. But no one would like. ETS, which is the paper itself. Some publishers also offer advice that may not match the rating of the ETS so far. I used to see a comparison of the Publisher. That is a good read, but the advice of the ETS would be best. He tells me that he wanted to do it. How do we respond.

For example, the speaking part of the Thai people are very afraid. I am sure that I own, I was excited as well. The problem was that he had to say, we think 15-30 seconds. For 30-45 seconds, then we will be recording. To make people listen to it again. Unlike IELTS. The speaking test with real people. It will be easier. We can provide non-verbal language (gestures, facial expressions and lip movement) in the ETS, which makes it clear that we should be saying something. Should be repeated the question a little. Then go and then he will have examples of people who have come to us with a good score. We will see that the score is not necessarily a good accent. Or speak to every word. Is irregular. Because he considered it a measure of the ability to communicate. May have some idea what difficulties are not uncommon. The accent may not be here. It is typical of people who are learning English as a foreign language anyway. (He was called Test of English as a Foreign Language: TOEFL, so to speak, unlike most, it's not like it) in the book, it also says that guideline. Should be administered on time, however, should be just enough time to come. If the time remaining, it will be deducted from the score on them. We just need to believe because he was the paper's ETS.

The downside of this book is?
This book, written exam, there really is not that part of my practice English. It is a book that helps people prepare for the TOEFL exam is not known exactly how. Question is how. I will make sure a computer monitor. It is known that we are familiar with the format of the exam before the fact. Do not think that it does not matter. What we found unexpected time. It will not stay with the meat and do not lose points to be quite simple.

Summarize
My opinion is. This book should be read before. The format of the exam will know what is. (But may not be authentic practice test was done to keep it around for the better) I know the format of the TOEFL is how it should try to see if I still need to improve it. I went to my other books to read on a train. If the English language better. Do not practice it. I also recommend this book to read it anyway. (To buy or borrow from anyone but) because I see many people where English is already good. I was not prepared for it. Instead it will be very great. Become very passive. If anyone is familiar with the format of the TOEFL iBT test, they may be shocked to lose concentration, they should at least try to make it authentic practice test before the actual exam.

* Note: I have no interest in anything about the sales of the ETS, but I'd recommend it. The Thai people to make a big score. No need to waste money to ETS to the second round, third round here.

How to TOEFL preparation.

Should be studied by various institutions or TOEFL ?
The answer to this question will depend on individual issues. If I have a degree and Control of their own. Review the lessons often. I do not need to go to school because really, what institutions and tutorials. I taught in the book are all the preparation toefl barron cambrige another study, it was not at the price of 20,000 baht or more.
However, to study at the Institute (a little), but it has many advantages.

1.You will meet many new friends that want to learn in the class that we will have good luck. For example, my experience was not very good friends in the class that I was doing the exercises every day to practice speaking and often have good material to share when I feel discouraged, but to encourage one another.

2.You will learn with native speakers. In addition to the skills of listening, then I can fix that if we can practice at home alone, no one solution to this.

Where should click. Time management is also after the completion. Will be identical to the actual exam and a score for each part, as well as speaking and writing and to be thoroughly exhausted that we do not tell me. We develop ourselves by what we now allow us to lose our excitement at the fact that I practice at home. cd book exam will be no second part to this.
Study of them.

According to my experience. Second, it is recommended Kaplan and Princeton.

The Kaplan Course books are better and cheaper, but better than Princeton to teach speaking.

How to prepare.
Because of the time in learning institutions are limited, we must practice it at home. The author would like to prepare classified into 4 skills based on the actual exam.
1. Reading experience. A way to do that part. This is good for quick browsing, terminology, but not surfing the terms of a particular book. The book includes vocabulary for TOEFL, especially the two books is to introduce a 400 MUSTHAVE WORDS for the TOEFL and ESSENTIAL WORDS for the TOEFL.

2. Listening technique is to listen to English as often as it frequently. But the question is, will hear from each If you listen to cnn may soon have a site recommendation. The site is not slow for beginners and can download music files into the mp3player carry it at any time.
