TOEFL® Tips
Use the English language every day
Set aside time each day to communicate in English only. Listen, read, speak and write in English every opportunity you get.
to write
Send emails, make notes for yourself, and write daily reminders, using new words and common expressions. This helps with the structure of the sentence and the vocabulary.
Listen out
Listen to music, online broadcasts, radio, television and English movies. The more you listen, the more you will understand vocabulary and expressions. Music helps you acquire the rhythm and stress patterns of spoken English. Listen carefully to the words.
Read
Reading is the best way to improve your vocabulary. Reading materials in English (newspapers, magazines, books and websites) are always available.
Suggestion to speak
Focus on speaking loud and clear with good pronunciation and intonation. Try to talk in thought groups to have good flow to your speech. Pause after prepositional phrases and related thought groups. Add emotion and feeling to what you are saying. Practice the same speech in your own language and then try to match the same gestures and feelings when using English.
Keep a diary
Write down the things you are doing to prepare for college and other events in your daily life. This is a great way to organize your thoughts and practice writing in English. You can follow your own progress. Read and read aloud.
Practice on a QWERTY keyboard
A standard English keyboard keyboard (QWERTY) is used for the test. Practice typing on a QWERTY keyboard to familiarise yourself with keys and design.
Tips for Success on Trial Day
Dress comfortably for any room temperature.

Do not spend too much time on a question.
Do not leave the questions blank. If you are not sure of the answer, make the best possible choice.
