    Hey Josh, I just wanted to thank you so much! I took my test on the 24th of September, and I opened the website today to check my score of 119 (R: 29, others 30). I reviewed your structure for the integrated writing, your speaking practices, and much more--I cannot thank you enough :D
    Although it may just be a small portion, I know that this score would contribute to my college application, and I also know that a lot others will benefit from your videos, so keep up the great work!

    Hi, Josh! Thank you so much for your videos. They're really helpful. I have a question as regards notes. Is there a problem if I look too much at my notes in this section? Should we try to look at the camera as much as possible or are we expected to be looking at notes during our response?

    • @TSTPrep
      @TSTPrep  11 місяців тому +1

      I think looking at your notes is fine! I don't recommend reading your notes, there is a BIG difference. If you read your notes, you will probably sound robotic and stiff. As long as you sound comfortable and natural when you speak, you can respond however you like, with or without notes.

    I just got back from the test and received the unofficial score for reading(19) and listening(21), which is disheartening since I had taken three of your tests here and scored almost full in those two sections. I also found the real test to be more intimidating in terms of vocabulary and topics I encountered. Was this just my bad fortune or there could be something that I missed before taking real test?

    • @TSTPrep

    I have a question regarding all the types of speaking tasks. In the real exam, do we get the computerized instruction, like start reading now, now listen to the lecture. If we get this computerized instruction in real exam, then I guess I'll get 3-4 seconds every time there is an instruction.
    For example - For the 2nd task. We get the instructions, now read the passage. The time alloted to read the passage is 45 seconds, but if I add the time for the computerized instruction then the total time is somewhat 50 seconds.
    So, Mr. MacPherson or any of my fellow mates who have already given the test. Please confirm this and clear my confusion.

    Hey Josh, thanks for the great videos! I have tried a couple of times the Elsa Speech rater you recommended but it says that it doesn't even identify my speech and speak clearer, I am pretty sure that people can clearly understand when I speak, so am I doing something wrong? I really wanted to try this.

    • @TSTPrep
      @TSTPrep  10 місяців тому

      Hi Kelly, thanks for your question. Unfortunately, it's difficult to tell from your comment what the issue is. If Elsa isn't identifying any sound at all, maybe contact their technical support to see if may be a settings or microphone problem. If it is picking up your sound and it still says you are unclear, perhaps consider doing a speaking evaluation so we can tell for sure. - tstprep.com/store/toefl/toefl-speaking-evaluation/
