TOEFL

In the IBT TOEFL I preparation course, students will review high intermediate to advanced speaking, listening, reading and writing skills. The students begin by taking a diagnostic exam to discover their weak areas.

Then they receive a thorough breakdown of test-taking strategies for the IBT TOEFL test, including vocabulary development, strategies for reading comprehension, identification of listening topics, speech cohesion and pronunciation, and fundamentals of essay writing.

Students utilize mini-tests and complete computer tests to prepare for the test environment. The IBT class accommodates all four levels of TOEFL instruction simultaneously. From the start of the year, each quarter is a progression in helping students improve their skills and thereby their scores. In TOEFL I, instruction is focused on the most basic fundamental skills practiced in the textbook.
