How can I prepare for the speaking section?

Answer 1

Buy the ETS Official Guide to the TOEFL 2018 edition and study the format of questions 1-6 (2 independant questions and 4 integrated questions). I suggest completing this section of the book with a qualified teacher so they can give you honest and accurate feedback.

Practice efficient note taking strategies for integrated questions 3-6.

Study the following link as questions 1 and 2 have changed in the 2019 test although ETS officially denies this, some students are getting different question formats for these questions: https://www.toeflresources.com/changes-to-the-toefl-in-2018-and-2019

Find a qualified and recommended teacher who shows dedication and a genuine interest in your success.

Good luck!

Answer 2

Hi Preston,

Simply, talk to me, I can help you with pointing out where you're going astray or what specifically you need to improve on in speaking. Talking to others about specific topics/asking them to critique you may help as well, though if they aren't familiar with TOEFL speaking and strategies it might not be super beneficial.

Happy to schedule a chat/session at a discounted rate.
