I will have my test in 1 day and 17 hours. I'm kinda nervous 😅. Watching you guys share your good experiences with the home edition makes me feel better and excited. Let's pray that I'll get 100 and up 🙏🏼💓. Thank you Juva and Shiray for this fun sharing! Loves from Philippines 🇵🇭❤️
Very positive and sympathetic guest! :DD I scored 109, which is enough for my undergraduate degree (though I hoped to score above 110, but I got 4 texts and I only scored 26 on the Reading section :/ )Anyways, thanks a lot for your videos! I only used them for my preparation, which worked out just fine! Thanks a lot again :D
@@juva i completed the reading and listening sections. Problems started after the ten minute break. Apparently the ets website and services went down for a scheduled maintenance and the exact same time. I couldn't continue with the test. Neither me or Proctor U knew what was going on. I was sitting there and we were trying to fix the problem until midnight here in germany. Restarting my computer so many times but the ets test browser would always crash. Thts when finally i decided to go check the ets website while proctor was still connected to me. And he and i both saw that it was down for maintenance. And now i would basically have to reschedule and take the test from the beginning. Super bad experience.
@@dr.med.shoaibamjadzaki5336 I'm so sorry to hear that, that's so frustrating! I wish you all the best for your next TOEFL test! Hopefully, everything will go well.
I recently took the home edition toefl, I was very nervous, I needed a lot of concetration in the reading part. I chose taking this test at 7 am... (bad idea) .. even If I went to bed early the day before, and I woke up at 6 the test day I was like my eyes were tired. An advice for you guys, better turn off the phone, the proctor told me to put my phone on my piano, but I put fly mode.. but the massages were comming and the vibration with the piano made me loose my concentration.. I was thinking about the noise and the proctor he he he he... I don´t have my grade yet, but I hope it is enough for my purpose. Good luck!
Thanks for this excellent advice Verónica! I'm sorry to hear that your TOEFL Home Edition experience was not so good. I hope that you will get your dream score and that everything will be fine!
@@juva could you please explain about the difference between traditional toefl and home Addition one ?I really didn't find any comprehensive information
Hi Juva, Thank you very much for your answer. Unfortunately, i'm not able to see your answer in its totality. I'm not really in a rush to take my TOEFL test so I have time. I'd like to take the test for Australian Immigration, I need to have R24 L24 W27 S23 minimum. last time I took the test I was close to my goal as I had R21 L25 W23 S23 Whenever you can start giving lessons, i'd be glad to take one with you. My problem is essentially in reading and writing
Hi Michael, I'm afraid I don't offer lessons at the moment because I have to study a lot and don't have much time. However, if you have any questions, please put them in the comments, I'll be happy to answer them.
Hi, Juva! Thank you for your videos❤️ I have a question 🙋🏻♀️ When I registered to the TOEFL exam, I didn’t choose score recipients, because I am not going to enter university this year. So the question is what should I do after reading and listening? Should I report or cancel scores? I want to have certificate to apply university next year, so I am going to take TOEFL in advance.
Hi Juva, I hope you are doing well! I am taking my TOEFL home edition on a couple of weeks, and I cannot use less than 3 sheet for my notes in one listening passage. Do they still oblige to have one transparent sheet or not. If yes, what do you advise me to do? Thakn you a lot!
Hi Khaoula, I hope you're doing well :). Your are allowed to use 1 transparency sheet or 1 whiteboard. I recommend practicing erasing your notes before the test so that you get used to it.
Hello, Sir. The scariest thing for me is only technical error like Internet connection. Therefore, may I know what should I do to prepare for the technical error, Sir?
The first time I passed TOEFL ... my score was very low especially reading and listening I was very nervous and took a long time probably more than 2.5min per question.... tomorrow I will pass another TOEFL and I was wondering how to overcome the stress at the beginning
Hi Ahmed, being nervous is totally normal. Don't worry about that. I'm sure you are well-prepared so you must be aware of that before starting the TOEFL. Make it clear to yourself that you studied a lot and you can do this. Hope this helps :)
Hi Juva, At first i just want to thanks for all of your Videos,tips and tricks that you are providing for us. 1. How much did the (Shirya) got in her test? 2. I have my Toefl home edition test in aug and my goal is 100+ do you think i can do it?
Hi Taib, you're so welcome, I'm so glad you like it :). Shiray scored well over 100 in the TOEFL. Regarding your second question, this depends on your current level of English. If you are advanced and if you understand the test format and practice enough, it should not be a problem to score over 100. Hope this helps :)
@@juva What are some special things that you offer me for practicing? I watched your every single videos up to now and assess them as a very effective function of my improvement.

Hi Veronica, I have a question. The proctor in the test only speak in english?
@@tlyrics6160 Hi Tiffany, usually the proctor will only speak English.
Hi in order to take the home edition toffel test should I attend to a test center as well
You can take the TOEFL Home Edition from home 😀
Thank you
Is there any time limitations like ielts test?
Yes, you only have a certain amount of time to solve the tasks in the TOEFL.
@@juva could you please explain about the difference between traditional toefl and home Addition one ?I really didn't find any comprehensive information
Hi Juva,
Is there a way to take lessons with you?

Hello :) You should make sure that you satisfy the requirements set out by ProctorU. If you do, there should be no issues on test day.
can i use an external speaker & microphone for toefl at home edition?
You can if it's not connected to a headset.
Yes, but you can´t use headphones, they ask you to show your ears and your hands (in case of any smarthwatch)
@@veronicamun55 noo you can not use earphones
