Hi Yuva! Just wanted to let you know that I had been binging your videos since a week and they really helped me prepare for my exam. Gave my exam yesterday and even though there were quite a few technical difficulties, I was able to complete it on time. Was mostly worried about reading since it was the section I was struggling with the most while preparing. Happy to tell you that I scored 28 in Reading and 27 in Listening. All thanks to your videos! ❤️
@Sanjana Sharma, Hi dear Sanjana Sharma You've got an impressive score in reading let me know could you help me with your advice and something that you use in order to get such a high score in reading.
Thanks for the tips. My unofficial scores for reading and listening are 26 and 30. Not really aiming for high scores. Just enough to get my license. Im crossing my fingers that i got the 26 for speaking. If not, i will just try again. I didnt prepare much. I watched your videos few days before my exam and practiced speaking seriously 2 days before my exam. I also didn’t get to practice writing. I just followed your tips. So just hoping for the best. I am aware speaking is not one of my strengths. I just want you to know I appreciated your youtube content. It really helped me a lot to get familiarized with the exam.
Hi Juva! I have watched and listened to so many videos on TOEFL, and you are the best so far. Please keep up the excellent work. You are helping so many folks out there!
My brother studied languages at the Defense Language Institute Foreign Language Center in California. The pace of study was intense. Students had to master the language course in 36-64 weeks. Psychologically it was very difficult, but fortunately he was helped by Yuriy Ivantsiv's book "Polyglot Notes. Practical tips for learning foreign languages”. The book " Polyglot Notes" became a desk book for my brother, because it has answers to all the problems that any student of a foreign language has to face. Thanks to the author of the channel for this interesting video! Good luck to everyone who studies a foreign language and wants to realize their full potential!
My exam is tomorrow and I was about to start studying then I remembered that the day before exam we should rest and sleep well :( LOL The only thing I'm doing is watching your videos
@@markopasa4141 well i've taken toefl a lot and from my experiences you need to know a lot of vocabulary example: plundered and then just listen to juva's tips then read the text carefully you have to focus NO other thoughts
Thanks for your videos Juva! I mostly followed them but incorporated some of my own vocabulary impromptu…scored 30/30 in the Reading section and 115 overall. Just got my score now!
Another great video! I love how precise you are and straight to the point! I hope that you can make a video about the speaking section please. Thank you!
You're so welcome Maria! I'm so glad it's helpful to you! Don't worry about your TOEFL test. It's totally normal to be nervous. Everything will be fine :)
Hey am going to take my test on sat and am really nervous but your vids really helps so much and your hacks are actually effective , wish me good luck I hope I do fine
Thank you Juva. I was wondering if you can make a video explaining each section. I mean talking overall how is the exam organized and the time for each section. thanks
the university is requiring me to score 100+ and i'm taking my test tomorrow so I felt vastly better after watching your videos . I hope I can score 110 so
@TOEFL withJuva my overall score is 94 but I need at least 100 to get into my dream college.........I scored 22 on both writing and listening which is my lowest score ..........so I’m retaking the test on August 28th
@@nairamuricken5761 Congratulations Naira! That's an amazing score, you can be so proud of yourself. I'd recommend figuring out where you can improve in writing and listening and working on that. You can do this!
First, figure out what you need to work on. For example, do you struggle with specific question types or time management? Then have a look at my TOEFL playlists and pick the videos you need. If you have any questions, put them in the comments, I'll be happy to answer them 😀.
Hey Juva, Thanks for your great videos!! Can tou give me a tip, i am practicing with many exercises but my score is around 20 in the reading part, I want to improve this score. :)
Hey Diana, I'm so glad you like the videos :). No worries, you can do this. The key is to figure out where you lose points. I'd recommend this: Have a look at my TOEFL Reading playlist and take the practice tests. Then have a look at the video so that you understand how to find the correct answers for questions you are struggling with. If you have any questions, put them in the comments, I'll be happy to answer them. Hope this helps!
Hi Juva. Thanks for your videos. It helps me alot in my last test. every tasks in reading section was ended with selecting 3 out of 6 sentences to summary the passages. eventually i got problem with this question. may be you could give a direction how to answer it. Thanks
Hi Ade :) I'm so glad the videos are helpful to you! Have a look at my TOEFL Reading playlist, there is a video where I explain how you can solve summary questions.
Hi Juva! First of all, thank you for sharing this video! I scheduled my exam for next week and I'm just wondering about how you know the time that is left for the reading part. Is there a countdown timer or a regular timer that reaches the time limit?
Hi Andrea, I'm so glad you like the video 😀. There will be a timer on the screen, so you will know exactly how much time is left. I wish you all the best for your TOEFL, you can do it!
Hi Camila, I'm so glad you like the videos! I'm afraid I can't recommend a specific book at the moment. If you want to study with a book I'd recommend checking out a few of them and figuring out which suits you best. Hope this helps :)
Hey juva thank you so much for your videos. They are awesome! Still, I got a question. How would you use your time? How many minutes on skimming the passage reading the question Reading the passage in detail and finally answering the question
Hi Felix, I'm so glad you like the videos :). It's difficult to give an estimate because you may need more time for some questions and less time for others. Generally, you have between 1 and 2 minutes per question. Try to find the information in the passage as quickly as you can and don't spend too much time on a question even if you are unsure. Considering the current TOEFL Reading test, I'd say it's not absolutely necessary to skim the passage. If you skim, spend no more than 1 or 2 minutes on this. Hope this helps :).
Hi :) Congratulations, that's a great score, well done! 25 is very good, so it's likely that there is a specific issue that prevents you from getting a higher score. Think about this: Is there a specific question type you are struggling with, or do you have time management problems? Have a look at my TOEFL Reading playlist and check out the videos where I explain strategies and those where I solve TOEFL Reading practice tests. This should help you figure out where the problem lies and how you can solve it. If you have any questions, put them in the comments, I'll be happy to answer them.
Thank you Juva for the great videos! Can you give me a tip about the summary question? Do you answer it according to the general idea of the whole passage, or according to the key sentence in the question? I really appreciate your help!!
Hi Ammoula, you're welcome! I'm so glad you like them :) When answering a summary question you must extract the information from the passage and then figure out the sentences given in the question that fit the information. So I would say you answer it according to the general idea of the passage because you need to find the relevant information in the passage. Hope this helps :)
Hi juva My weaknesses are listening section and reading section so I need your advice so that I can improve my score in listening section and reading section please?
Hi Nfaly, have a look at my TOEFL Reading and TOEFL Listening playlists and pick the videos you need. You can find strategies, tips, and practice tests there. If you have any questions, put them in the comments, I'll be happy to answer them :).
Are all the questions specialised in a specific paragraph? I mean the test will always indicate the paragraphs where you are supposed to find the answers? Because it is really difficult sometimes.
That's not always the case. Some questions do not specify the paragraphs where you can find the relevant information. In this case it's important to look for keywords in the answer choices because this will help you find the information faster.
Hi Juva, I'm taking my TOEFL Home Edition tomorrow. May I ask if I can take notes during ALL parts of the exam (since I want to take notes during the reading test)? Anyways, thank you so much for your videos; they really help me a lot!
Hi Kai, I'm so glad the videos are helpful to you :). As far as I know you are allowed to take notes in all parts of the test. However, I'd recommend asking your proctor before you start taking the test, just to be sure. I wish you all the best for your TOEFL, you can do this! :)
No worries, you can do this! If you use the right strategies, you can answer all questions in the time given. Check out my TOEFL Reading practice videos where I solve complete TOEFL Reading tests. There I show you how to find the correct answers quickly 😀.
I'd recommend skimming the whole passage which means the whole text. After that read the question carefully and go back to that particular part of the passage that is relevant to this question. Since you have skimmed the whole passage before you will know where you can find the information. That's why skimming the whole passage in the beginning is important. It should give you an idea where you can find the information.
@@karlysol2829 When I took the TOEFL Home Edition, I could go back to each passage in TOEFL Reading and revise my answers. If you are unsure, I'd recommend contacting ETS and asking them. Hope this helps :).
Hey Juva, I really need Toefl prep plan, I'm not able to manage these for section at what time do I have to do reading or speaking. Could you help me with that
Hey :) Check out the playlists I created for TOEFL Speaking and TOEFL Listening, you should find everything you need there. Just go through the videos step by step. If you have any questions, put them in the comments I'll be happy to answer them :). Does this help?
Hi Bubacarr, so great that you want to take the TOEFL! How much time you need for studying depends on your current level of English and the score you need. Think about that, this should help you to figure out whether that date is good :).
i'm only afraid of the limited time we have to to the toefl how can i know how many minutes should i give for every question. in the reading section? Thanks
Hi Joel, that's an excellent question! I'd recommend this: Take a few TOEFL Reading practice tests to get an idea of how much time you need for each question. If you need more time than you are given, practicing more tests will help you become faster. Hope this helps :)
Detail questions ask you to find a specific piece of information in the passage. Check out this video: ua-cam.com/video/lAWwD-M9aMk/v-deo.html. Here, I explain how you can solve detail questions 😀. You only have a certain amount of time to solve the questions in TOEFL Reading and you will see a timer on the screen.
How much time do you suggest we should spend on 1 question each? Considering the fact that, we choose a wrong one and intend to go back on it later if time remains?
Have a look at the ETS website. I can highly recommend doing their TOEFL Reading practice test. It helped me a lot to get a feeling for the real TOEFL test. Does this help?
Do you recommend reading the whole passage first, before going to questions ? Or read paragraph by paragraph whole answering questions ? Also what's the strategy to find main ideas in the passage?
First, skim the passage so that you have a rough idea about the topic. You don't have the time to read the whole passage in detail. After that go directly to the questions and read the relevant part of the passage in detail. Hope this helps :)
I think this is the most important tip: Read the relevant paragraphs carefully and make sure that you check that the answers match the information given in the passage exactly. Some answers sound correct but are wrong, they are intended to confuse you, so be very careful.
I know this question is weird, but how much should we allocate to skim the passage (or) can we skip this part, if the question takes us to the part of passage
That's an excellent question! I'd recommend investing about 1-2 minutes in skimming. Some questions point you directly to the relevant part but others don't. If you feel that you don't need to skim the passage, you can go directly to the question.
Hello! I hope you can answer these two questions: 1: Do you know if the question "Directions" where you have to select THREE answer choices that express the most important ideas in the passage is still used in the home edition? 2: and about all the questions of the reading section, Is specified in the questions to which paragraph it corresponds?
Hello Paula! As far as I know this type of task does not appear in TOEFL Reading. Regarding your second question, the relevant paragraphs are not indicated which means that you have to read the question and then figure out where you can find the information in the passage. Does this help?
Hi Daniela, detail questions are questions that ask for specific key facts in the passage. If you like, have a look at my video where I solve the ETS practice test for TOEFL Reading. In this video I show you how to recognize and solve detail questions. Hope this helps :)

Generally, you have between 1 and 2 minutes per question. Try to find the information in the passage as quickly as you can and don't spend too much time on a question even if you are unsure. Considering the current TOEFL Reading test, I'd say it's not absolutely necessary to skim the passage. If you skim, spend no more than 1 or 2 minutes on this. Hope this helps :).
Hi, I have scored 93 I need 100 , I’m again and again getting 25 in reading. Pls help how to increase my score in reading to 27
Hi :) Congratulations, that's a great score, well done! 25 is very good, so it's likely that there is a specific issue that prevents you from getting a higher score. Think about this: Is there a specific question type you are struggling with, or do you have time management problems? Have a look at my TOEFL Reading playlist and check out the videos where I explain strategies and those where I solve TOEFL Reading practice tests. This should help you figure out where the problem lies and how you can solve it. If you have any questions, put them in the comments, I'll be happy to answer them.
Hy juva, how to buy your sample , template with ansy!
Hi 😀 You can find all TOEFL Materials here: juva.podia.com/toefl-materials
So nervous.. my test is tomorrow
I wish you all the best for your TOEFL! You can do this!
Hello Juva, I have been practicing a lot with the reading section, it is so difficult 😔😪
Hello Moises, TOEFL Reading is really challenging, but don't worry, it just takes some time, you can do it!
Thank you Juva for the great videos!
Can you give me a tip about the summary question? Do you answer it according to the general idea of the whole passage, or according to the key sentence in the question? I really appreciate your help!!
Hi Ammoula, you're welcome! I'm so glad you like them :) When answering a summary question you must extract the information from the passage and then figure out the sentences given in the question that fit the information. So I would say you answer it according to the general idea of the passage because you need to find the relevant information in the passage. Hope this helps :)
I am confused with your name is it juva or yuva??😅
It's Juva 😀. Where I'm from the "j" is pronounced like the "y" in English.
Hi juva
My weaknesses are listening section and reading section so I need your advice so that I can improve my score in listening section and reading section please?
Hi Nfaly, have a look at my TOEFL Reading and TOEFL Listening playlists and pick the videos you need. You can find strategies, tips, and practice tests there. If you have any questions, put them in the comments, I'll be happy to answer them :).
For "first", Juva pronounce "frost". Take it easy! 😘
Haha, hope you liked the video :)
Are all the questions specialised in a specific paragraph? I mean the test will always indicate the paragraphs where you are supposed to find the answers? Because it is really difficult sometimes.
That's not always the case. Some questions do not specify the paragraphs where you can find the relevant information. In this case it's important to look for keywords in the answer choices because this will help you find the information faster.
Hi Juva, I'm taking my TOEFL Home Edition tomorrow. May I ask if I can take notes during ALL parts of the exam (since I want to take notes during the reading test)? Anyways, thank you so much for your videos; they really help me a lot!
Hi Kai, I'm so glad the videos are helpful to you :). As far as I know you are allowed to take notes in all parts of the test. However, I'd recommend asking your proctor before you start taking the test, just to be sure. I wish you all the best for your TOEFL, you can do this! :)
@@juva Thank you so much, Juva! I'm gonna take it after this sleep 😁
I'm sorry i think u dropped this 👑
Haha thank you! :D
Are all passages full length? In the practice some are simple paragraphs and some are 4-5 paragraph long bodies of text.
All passages in TOEFL Reading have several paragraphs. They can be quite long.
Dear madam, can you help me to improve my marks for last question in the reading section? Can you give me some instructions ???
Hi, if you have any questions, please put them in the comments, I'll be happy to answer them :)
But the time is too short
No worries, you can do this! If you use the right strategies, you can answer all questions in the time given. Check out my TOEFL Reading practice videos where I solve complete TOEFL Reading tests. There I show you how to find the correct answers quickly 😀.
Hello, in your second tip, do you recommend skimming the passage or the whole text?
I'd recommend skimming the whole passage which means the whole text. After that read the question carefully and go back to that particular part of the passage that is relevant to this question. Since you have skimmed the whole passage before you will know where you can find the information. That's why skimming the whole passage in the beginning is important. It should give you an idea where you can find the information.
@@juva can I go back in the home edition TOEFL? I'm a lil scared of follow this advice and not being able to go back
@@karlysol2829 When I took the TOEFL Home Edition, I could go back to each passage in TOEFL Reading and revise my answers. If you are unsure, I'd recommend contacting ETS and asking them. Hope this helps :).
Hey Juva, I really need Toefl prep plan, I'm not able to manage these for section at what time do I have to do reading or speaking. Could you help me with that
Hey :) Check out the playlists I created for TOEFL Speaking and TOEFL Listening, you should find everything you need there. Just go through the videos step by step. If you have any questions, put them in the comments I'll be happy to answer them :). Does this help?
Hi juva I should sit for my toefl exam on the 12 of February 2022. Is't a good target?
Hi Bubacarr, so great that you want to take the TOEFL! How much time you need for studying depends on your current level of English and the score you need. Think about that, this should help you to figure out whether that date is good :).
i'm only afraid of the limited time we have to to the toefl
how can i know how many minutes should i give for every question. in the reading section?
Thanks
Hi Joel, that's an excellent question! I'd recommend this: Take a few TOEFL Reading practice tests to get an idea of how much time you need for each question. If you need more time than you are given, practicing more tests will help you become faster. Hope this helps :)
I have a question... in the summarie question, if I get 2 answers right but one wrong, Will I get any point?
If you choose two correct answers out of three, you will get a point.
Any body here can you tell me more about detail questions please... And is the time when reading is arranged?
Detail questions ask you to find a specific piece of information in the passage. Check out this video: ua-cam.com/video/lAWwD-M9aMk/v-deo.html. Here, I explain how you can solve detail questions 😀. You only have a certain amount of time to solve the questions in TOEFL Reading and you will see a timer on the screen.
thank you
You're welcome!
How much time do you suggest we should spend on 1 question each? Considering the fact that, we choose a wrong one and intend to go back on it later if time remains?
If you spend about 1 minute per question, you will have enough time to go back and check your answers.
Isn't there gonna be a timer at the top of the screen??
You will see a timer. Nevertheless, it's important that you manage your time so that you manage to answer all the questions in the time given.
whats the best place to practice reading? closest to actual toefl
Have a look at the ETS website. I can highly recommend doing their TOEFL Reading practice test. It helped me a lot to get a feeling for the real TOEFL test. Does this help?
Thank you
Do you recommend reading the whole passage first, before going to questions ? Or read paragraph by paragraph whole answering questions ? Also what's the strategy to find main ideas in the passage?
First, skim the passage so that you have a rough idea about the topic. You don't have the time to read the whole passage in detail. After that go directly to the questions and read the relevant part of the passage in detail. Hope this helps :)
@@juva Thank you very much. How much time do you recommend for skimming ?
@@desilva7812 You should do it as quickly as possible, it should only take one or two minutes.
@@juva thank you very much
@@desilva7812 You're most welcome!
On the screen the timer go back, or go forward?
As far as I remember it's a countdown.
@@juva okay thank you:)
3:26 wait why is this such a common problem 😭 I did a practice test and did exactly this like several times
No worries! Once you are aware of that you can easily avoid this mistake :).
do you have any tips for the summary questions?
I think this is the most important tip: Read the relevant paragraphs carefully and make sure that you check that the answers match the information given in the passage exactly. Some answers sound correct but are wrong, they are intended to confuse you, so be very careful.
In Practice Tests there are 13-14 questions per passage whereas some people say that there are only 10. How many do really appear?
In the TOEFL you get 10 questions per passage.
I know this question is weird, but how much should we allocate to skim the passage (or) can we skip this part, if the question takes us to the part of passage
That's an excellent question! I'd recommend investing about 1-2 minutes in skimming. Some questions point you directly to the relevant part but others don't. If you feel that you don't need to skim the passage, you can go directly to the question.
Hello! I hope you can answer these two questions: 1: Do you know if the question "Directions" where you have to select THREE answer choices that express the most important ideas in the passage is still used in the home edition? 2: and about all the questions of the reading section, Is specified in the questions to which paragraph it corresponds?
Hello Paula! As far as I know this type of task does not appear in TOEFL Reading. Regarding your second question, the relevant paragraphs are not indicated which means that you have to read the question and then figure out where you can find the information in the passage. Does this help?
@@juva Yes thanks! Tomorrow is my exam, so thanks for your amazing help.
@@paulagreco You're so welcome! I wish you all the best for your TOEFL test!
HI Juva, how do I identify a detail question?
Hi Daniela, detail questions are questions that ask for specific key facts in the passage. If you like, have a look at my video where I solve the ETS practice test for TOEFL Reading. In this video I show you how to recognize and solve detail questions. Hope this helps :)
Hi juva! Can you help us with the reading tips under insert questions! It doubts me.
Hi Bubacarr, have a look at my TOEFL Reading playlist, there are videos where I explain the question types in TOEFL Reading. Hope this helps :).
@@juva Thanks
