    Hey Josh,
    I rarely comment on a youtube video but you and TST prep deserves a good review!
    I had only 3 weeks in getting ready and your videos helped me a lot. I should especially mention the fact that the way you are teaching is really calming and helped me a lot to stay calm and not to freak out!! (Normal I get extremely nervous when it comes to exams! ). Thank you for giving that warmth and helping me to believe in myself.
    Even though UA-cam is a one way communication, honestly I did not felt that when I am studying with your videos because, after every mock test you would encourage everyone who did the test and I felt welcoming hearing those warm words.
    By the way, I did a pretty good job in my exam and TST prep deserve a big credit in that!
    Thank you soo much!
    To anyone who is struggling I would totally recommend this channel! ❤️

      @hussainnamvar5768 Місяць тому

      @@pablomancheno5039 Yes, I did. When you decide to write something down, your mind automatically considers that information as "important." So, you wouldn't really need to go back and take a look at what you have written down, because you actually remember it. Also, when you tune in to take notes, you pay more attention to the context. I wouldn't say you have to take notes, but it helps.

    Hi Josh! I'm taking TOEFL for the first time within a month and have a C1/C2 level, but have been struggling a lot with time management doing test practice, specially in the detail questions. The audios are just too long. Do you reccomend i answer the questions while listen to the audio at the same time, so i would have to pause the audios while answering the questions, or should i actively listen to each audio and then answer to the questions? Also, do we have a countdown clock in the real test? Is it possible to speed up audios in the listening section of the test? Thank you!

    • @TSTPrep
      @TSTPrep  2 місяці тому +1

      When you take the TOEFLiBT test, the questions do NOT show up until after the audio finishes, so there is no way for you to answer the questions while the audio is playing. You can't pause or speed up audio passages either.

      Hi there and interesting question. I don't think it would be a problem, but I don't want to say 100% for certain because I am not a representative of ETS. On the ETS' site, they mention 'one small desktop whiteboard', but I don't know the specifics. You might want to contact ETS directly and ask. Either way, good luck.

    • @TSTPrep
      @TSTPrep  21 день тому

      Thank you for commenting. I believe just more exposure to these types of listening passages will help with concentration. Basically, you are not used to listening to someone speak on a dry academic topic for five minutes. I would also recommend pausing the lecture when you feel lost, mark the time and then replay the passage and try to focus for a longer period of time on the next round.

In speaking, first part is about student should learn history about all countries than about their own country . Agree or disagree. Writing is about teacher training schools. 2nd task is about the impact of art to urban environments.
