I'm back here three years later, preparing myself again for the TOEFL, and you still are the best channel with the finest tips and templates! Seriously, you're awesome! Thanks
Hi Josh, I am self-taught and this lesson helps me improve my speaking skills. Despite receiving some negative advice from teachers about how you will never pass the toefl, I don't give up. Thanks for your help from Barcelona¡
Hey Josh, I just wanna thank you and TST Prep for helping me get through this TOEFL journey. I scored a 112/120 (R-30, L-28, S-27, W-27). To anyone else who is preparing and comes across this video and channel, I'd suggest you go through each and every video. Even the ones that date back to 2019. TST Prep has curated all essential points in their guides and the mock tests are amazing helpful. Lastly, Josh is an amazing instructor and the little bit of appreciation he adds at the end of each video is extremely helpful and pushes you to keep practicing. Thanks to TST Prep!
Congratulations and thank you for your kind words. It means A LOT. If it wouldn't be too much trouble, could you say the same thing at this link - sotellus.com/r/tst-prep/? It will help people on Google learn about my site, TST Prep. Thanks again!
Hi Josh! I want to thank you so much for helping me familiarize with the different question types in TOEFL! The only speaking practice I had was from you and ets. I spent my elementary school in the US but I still found the speaking section to be tricky as I tended to stutter and hesitate, but your videos were so much help to me! I scored a 30 in speaking and 117 overall on my first TOEFL last week! Hope more people can learn from your videos!

Highly appreciate to Josh and TST Prep TOEFL for each video in this channel. This video helps me to prepare to TOEFL IBT and improve my language skills. Highly recommended this UA-cam channel
Hi josh, last time I commented "notes-taking“ were bothering, you said" try to find a way best fit you". I read your reply carefully. I interpreted this message as" there is no tactic that fits every one, if it doesn't make you feel comfortable, then go for another". Based on this recognition, I started to experiment in my daily listening TOEFL listening by not taking any notes but just predicting where or when there might be a "question" after the listening. Guess what? It absolutely worked to me!! I was amazed by how my listening performance had been dramatically improved because of a specific listening strategy being changed. Now, I am not scared of TOEFL listening anymore. So, thank you for your enlightenment. Besides, I also learn that it will be more beneficial for us to persist one technique for a little while and then decide to quit or adopt it. Sometimes a good method needs verifying only after amounts of trials (P.s. I didn't try this with patience before, so I missed it). This approach, namely, listening without notes but focusing and predicting , finally retains due to my patience and close observation this time. Thank you again. I will continue to support and follow you! Wish you all the best, Josh.❤💯🙏
Hey Josh ! I scored R-24 L-25 by only listening to your lectures for 2 weeks, an hour a day. I have a good feeling about writing and speaking as well. Thank you.
Hi Josh, I am currently still in prep for my upcoming test in four days, so I can't tell yet how grateful I'll be in retrospect. But I just wanted to take the moment to let you know how helpful and plainly awesome your videos are. Also you just seem like such a nice guy! Thanks !

Hey Josh! I took the TOEFL iBT test on August 9th and got a total score of 111 (R:29, L:29, S:26, W:27)!!! 😃 I am really thankful that I found your UA-cam channel during my preparation time. Your videos give me a clear picture of TOEFL iBT, and the exercises you provided boost my confidence as a self-taught learner. I wish you all the best, and I hope you'll keep helping future TOEFL test takers. God bless you!

On how many days did you get you score? I am also preparing too i have anxiety about that,especially about speaking part which has a crucial role for me.
@@elifaslan2424 It took me around 2 months to prepare for the TOEFL iBT. I also had the same worries about the speaking part! I followed Josh's suggestion in his videos to practice by recording my voice and using a timer. I am sure by practicing the speaking part daily you will gain more confidence, and so did I! Good luck with your TOEFL iBT exam and keep me updated about your results.
Hello, everyone! I've noticed that there are variations in the questions we receive. Some ask for a brief summary of the announcement, while others just request us to report the person's opinion. Should I adapt my approach depending on the question, or is it acceptable to provide a summary of the reading passage even when the question explicitly just asks for the opinion? By the way, those videos are tremendously helpful. Thank you very much for your hard work!
Hi, just to clarify a few points: A speaking question 2 will never ask your opinion. You should always answer in the third person. Also, ETS says you just need to summarize the reading, but if you do the summary too quickly you run out of things to say and cannot fill up one minute. So the best approach is to say the main idea of the reading and the two reasons in the reading that support this idea. This should take you about 20 seconds. Then use the rest of the time to summarize the listening.
@@myrandomfood7659 Hi, and thanks for your question. They will not deduct points for this. In fact, in general, you should always talk about the reading. The main reason for this is there is not that much information in the listening. If you only talk about the listening, you will quickly run out of things to say. Usually, I begin my speaking by talking about what the announcement is and the two reasons the reading gives to support the change. This can be done in about 15-20 seconds. Then I use the rest of the time to discuss the conversation.
Hi Josh! I've started preparing for the TOEFL test on my own, and I'm thrilled to have found this channel. I'm confused about one thing: can we write down the templates on the provided scrap paper before the actual test time begins?
Thank you so much for your effort. i was wondered about Q2 in speaking section. why it should include an introduction about reading passage in case the question regarding the man in the conversation ?
Hi, and thanks very much for your question. For speaking question two, you want to introduce the main idea of the reading and state the two reasons given in support. This will allow you to speak for a full minute without repeating yourself. If you only talk about the listening, you will often run out of things to say before time expires. Hope this helps. :)
Hey josh could you put the question 3 and 4 tips and tricks video before 30 September because at that day, i have exam so if you do that , that's makes lots of help for me your video help a lot spacially in speaking and writing
Thank you so much Josh for your videos!! I have noticed that when I practice speaking tasks, I usually do not do it well on my first try (around 2 - 2.5/4), but in my second or third try it gets better (around 3 - 3.5/4). It is frustating :(
Keep practicing and stay motivated! One of the best techniques for improving your TOEFL Speaking score is to re-record the same response until you get it perfect. By re-recording responses, you give your brain the opportunity to focus on fixing small mistakes that need improvement - instead of worrying about the content you are talking about. For example, if you are practicing with a Question Type 1, here is what you should do: 1. Record your response and listen to your response. Ask yourself the following questions: - Is your response under 45 seconds? - Did you include specific details and examples, like a personal story? - Did you include an introduction and conclusion? - Did you say 'umm' more than 3 times? 2. Continue to record the same response until you have mastered all of the techniques above. You can apply this same technique to the integrated questions as well.
Hi Josh, I've been listening to your videos, and I love them!! I would like to ask about note taking- As a Non- Native speaker, may I write my notes in my Native language? Looks like it is easier for me to write faster that way and get more information. TIA
If I don’t finish my sentence before the time is up, will it get scored worse? Normally if it cuts off I said the most things and it just is one sentence which I would have said.
Conclusions are optional for both the speaking and writing tasks. Use them if you have the time, but do not worry if you do not. It will not affect your score. Good luck!
In fact, you should always talk about the reading. The main reason for this is there is not that much information in the listening. If you only talk about the listening, you will quickly run out of things to say. Usually, I begin my speaking by talking about what the announcement is and the two reasons the reading gives to support the change. This can be done in about 15-20 seconds. Then I use the rest of the time to discuss the conversation. Hope this helps!
Do you know the example answers from the official book? In all these high-level answers, the speaker doesn't lose a word about the reading. So is it just your preference to speak about the reading?
Thank you for your question. I am not sure which book you are talking about, but in general, you should at least mention the topic of the reading. I also like to mention the two reasons the reading gives. This allows me to spend 20 seconds talking about the reading and 40 seconds talking about the listening.
Hi, I have a question. Is it possible to see the announcement once the teacher starts giving instructions? Or when the announcement appears? Thanks in advance.
Josh you said that the reading passage goes away once the reading time is over but I have heard that the reading passage stays there (probably left or right side of screen), only the voice recording stops. This is mentioned almost everywhere on the internet. Plz correct me if I am wrong as I am planning to take my Toefl exam on 4th of next month. Thanks
The reading passage is on the screen when you write your Integrated essay. As for the Speaking section (in questions 2 and 3), the reading passage will disappear after a certain amount of time. Hope this clears up the confusion.
Hello, Josh! I haven’t presented the exam yet because I’m still struggling with speaking. I checked your personal website but the course is sold out. It will be any other opportunity to get in? Thank you!
Hi there and thank you for asking. The next round of Speaking group classes will start at the beginning of the next month and you can reserve your spot here - tstprep.com/store/toefl/toefl-speaking-group-classes/. Another great option is enrolling in private classes. Private classes are more expensive, but you can start as soon as you need and will get more personalized help and guidance. Here is the link if you are interested - tstprep.com/store/toefl/toefl-private-lessons/
Here are some videos that you might find useful ua-cam.com/video/xWTIfpnPXcs/v-deo.htmlsi=ss_91K8n2LDzOukI, ua-cam.com/video/GW6Jj1BILOY/v-deo.htmlsi=Vf6dj8FCAA7MGTj2 Subscribe for more :)
when answering Q2, can I say : the man had a negative attitude about the notice and he opposes it for several reasons. Is that correct to use past simple then complete talk using present simple??
If it is only two or three words, it should not affect your score. The test does not expect you to sound like a perfect native speaker. However, if you mispronounce more than a few, it may start to impact your score.
Hi josh I have faced a problem in using my speaking score, when I record an answer by the mic, it always says to me: "Your respone is too short, please record at least 30 seconds". While I am speaking more than 30 secods. Please tell me how to fix this problem.
Josh, I am able to not dependent on notes in listening section, but I just can't do this in speaking section. I can't focus on when taking notes, however, if I focus on listening, major details might be omitted in speaking. that's bothering, what can i do?
Notetaking is helpful, but it is also optional. If it takes you too long and you can't focus, then you might want to avoid taking notes. I hope that answers your question. If you need to talk to a teacher, you could also try a trial lesson and they can give you some pointers - tstprep.com/store/toefl-trial-lesson/
hi i did watch a diff video from another channel that says if the question doesn’t ask you to state the reason then probably don’t say it in the intro but rather connect it to the 2nd/3rd paragraph?
Hi, and thanks for your question. I am not sure what you mean by second and third paragraphs, because a speaking question two should only have one paragraph to read. In general, though it is a good idea to mention both the two supporting reasons from the reading and the two reasons from the conversation as well. This will make it less likely you will run out of things to say, which can be a problem on question two.
I'm back here three years later, preparing myself again for the TOEFL, and you still are the best channel with the finest tips and templates! Seriously, you're awesome! Thanks

Hi, and thanks for your question. I am not sure what you mean by second and third paragraphs, because a speaking question two should only have one paragraph to read. In general, though it is a good idea to mention both the two supporting reasons from the reading and the two reasons from the conversation as well. This will make it less likely you will run out of things to say, which can be a problem on question two.
They will provide pen and paper ?
When you take the TOEFL at a test center, you get a pencil and a piece of scrap paper.
Going to take my TOEFL once again tomorrow because my last test was cancelled 😢😢😢
I hope everything goes well.
