Five language skills are tested on the TOEFL. They are tested in separate sections.
Section 1: Listening Comprehension
Section 2: Structure and Written Expression
Section 3: Vocabulary and Reading Comprehension
When preparing students to take the TOEFL or any other language examination, it is very important to review the language skills for each section of the examination and to have an opportunity to take model tests that are similar to the actual examination.
Reviewing will help students to recall some of the language skills previously studied. Taking model tests will give them the experience of taking a TOEFL before taking the actual examination.
The computer-based testing (CBT) system is now the most common method of testing. Using the new computer program has definite advantages and disadvantages.
Remember that the TOEFL examination can be the most important test a student can take. The outcome of their exam will reflect on future schooling, studying abroad, promotions and raises!
