    Reading was the most challenging part, in my experience. I had a really hard time and messed with time management. I really wanna thank you, Josh, for all the work you do here. All your videos, advices, tricks, encouraging words. I was really disappointed when I got that 17 in the reading section (when I thought reading was my strength) and thanks to this channel I got a 25. I wish you all the success with TST Prep.

      @Flywithbees English isn't my native language. However, I did study in an English-medium school. However, my grammar isn't that great. It's not too bad, not too great. My spoken English is just alright too. Nothing extraordinary.
      I was pretty comfortable with the listening and reading sections. But the writing and speaking ones are what scared me. I don't speak in English every day, only once in a while. I am certainly not used to writing essays. With very little preparation time, that too! But the actual exam wasn't that bad.
      For writing, I would suggest you practice a lot. Time yourself, decide on a random topic, and just write. There's even sample topics and essays online. You could use that.
      As for speaking, just do mock tests. Speak in front of someone, or record yourself. There are speaking samples online as well.
      This channel has really good tips on how to tackle the exam, so do watch their videos.

    Here is the best tip for you, if you are going to take a TOEFL test for the first time - be prepared that your are going to have 4 reading passages. During my preparation I always completed 3 passages one by one and usually got all of the answers correct in time, but on the test day it was challenging because of the extra passage. It’s very common in my experience! So be aware of it and don’t think that you’ll be the lucky one))
    Also a big shout out to Josh and this channel, it helped me to score 100 in two weeks! Good luck to everybody!

    at the end of the day, your main goal is to get your final score as high as you can, so for the best preparation you should not focus only on having a better mastery of the english language but also try to be in your best shape mentally and physically on the test day. read faster and more accurate, listen better, type faster, speak more fluently.

      You don't have to read the entire passage first. You can start answering questions immediately.

    • @TSTPrep
      @TSTPrep  24 дні тому

      The Emergency Course is meant to prepare you for the exam as best as possible, but it does not increase your English language fluency in a matter of days or
      weeks. In general, students at lower levels of proficiency should work on the basics of English first. However, this may take time. You can try a trial lesson with one of our tutors for more personalized assessment and guidance. That will give you the clearest idea of where you are at - tstprep.com/store/toefl/trial-lesson-for-the-toefl-ibt/

      Great question. Of course, there are many ways, but the best way is by using your English as much as possible. Repetition is key. Speak English whenever you can and read English books in your free time. Fluency will develop over time.

    • @TSTPrep
      @TSTPrep  Рік тому +1

      In general, when students are at a lower level of proficiency, I find that TOEFL practice is not the best. Students at lower levels of proficiency should work on the basics of English first. I would suggest investing time in a site like LingQ where you can do some extensive reading that is not connected to the TOEFL, that way you can build your skills and vocabulary with text that is a little bit easier before moving ahead with the TOEFL.

    • @TSTPrep
      @TSTPrep  Рік тому +1

      With these types of questions, the best approach is to look for a reference phrase in the sentence. Then try to find the same reference phrase in the paragraph. It will usually appear in the sentence before the correct answer. If you are still struggling, you might want to try a trial lesson and they can give you some pointers - tstprep.com/store/toefl-trial-lesson/

    • @TSTPrep
      @TSTPrep  Рік тому

      You do not have enough time to read the passage and answer the questions. I recommend going one paragraph at a time. I usually suggest students read the question and the first and second possibility and then search for the answer. However, let me emphasize that you should find a style that you are comfortable with, that is most important.

    It is particularly trueb for the last summary question where we have to have a comprehensive idea about the whole passage, not reading the passage first might just cost in my opinion

    • @TSTPrep
      @TSTPrep  Рік тому

      Hi there and thank you for taking the time to comment. In my opinion, you will read naturally as you answer the questions so you should have read all of the passage by the time you get to the summary question. Still, I encourage you to experiment and see which approach you feel most comfortable with.
