TOEFL Reading
The Reading section is the first part of the TOEFL test. Before you can start, wait for the test center administrator to enter the password to begin the testing software. Because there are many test takers and it takes a certain amount of time for everyone to get started, do not rush into the question interface too quickly, to avoid interference from other test takers doing headphone and microphone testing.
Manage your time well to attempt all the questions. Do not spend too much time on a single tough question. All the questions carry equal marks. The text will remain on the screen as you answer the questions. Last but not least, you might find it useful to read the questions before jumping into the passage and trying to find the answer in the passage. Be attentive to the keywords. TOEFL information
TOEFL Listening
Don’t rush to start the first article (question), instead, carefully listen to the introduction, pretend it is a part of the question content and start writing. This can help you to quickly be in the best condition for the Listening part before starting on the first question.
Stay focused with your ears. You might be more comfortable and focused if you close your eyes and concentrate on the audio test content.
Keep notes short and simple. Be attentive to nouns and verbs. Never jump to the main idea in the middle of the listening. Give yourself a few seconds after listening to understand the central concept.
TOEFL Speaking
There is a 10-minute break before this section. Finish with a visit to the toilet and your refreshments as soon as possible during the break, and go back to the test room immediately. The speaking section takes only about 20 minutes, and if you have had practice with enough questions before, you should be all right. The entire section starts with a microphone test. Some test takers might attempt to impress the ETS rater with fast speech, but speaking too quickly is not recommended. As a non-native English speaker, speaking too fast might lose clear pronunciation. If the rater cannot understand your answer, you will lose some points there. Therefore, speak loudly and clearly at a normal pace, not too slow and not too fast.
Another thing to keep in mind is that your answer does not have to be true. Be creative. It’s all about how you present the idea you have. For example, if the question asks you “Who is your childhood hero?” but you cannot think of anyone at the moment, what do you do? Do not waste time struggling; quickly make someone up! Your childhood hero could even be a neighbor who is a national athlete or a war hero that you make up.
Avoid fillers like um, ah, and er. Just pause. Utilize the 15 seconds’ preparation time to structure your answer.
TOEFL Writing
In the Writing section of the TOEFL iBT test, you will be using a keyboard (a standard QWERTY English keyboard) for the two writing tasks. It is crucial that you can type at a reasonable speed. Don’t be too slow.
The system will do a word count as you write. Your response to this task should be at least 300 words.
Completing the test
After the completion of the writing test, you should also pay attention to the YES/NO content on the screen about whether to retain the score and whether to agree to use your score as a reference. Don’t make mistakes. IELTS articles
If you make a mistake, don’t panic. You can correct it by paying an additional fee on the official website to reclaim your results. As you click ‘continue,’ you have completed the test. Congratulations! You will receive your electronic result after ten days.
That’s about it. I hope this article has been helpful and I wish you well for your TOEFL iBT test.
