plz need a listening strategy!
pls upload How To speak in TOEFL test
1. Reading: Skim only, don't try to read whole passage in detail because of time crunch
2. Recheck answer choices if you have time
3. Listening: Jot only important detail, develop and practice note taking using simple abbreviations and symbols
4. Speaking: Use your clean and tailored cohesive templates
5. Have intonation/emphasis/delivery on words
6. Writing: Use your clean and tailored cohesive templates. Practice, reiterate.
PS - Resources in description
I just wanted to say thank you for the advice. For me, the most helpful piece of advice was note taking and the website where you could practice the speaking questions. It helped and I got 116/120.
I’m honestly so happy for you!!!!!
Congratulations
Please share your Toefl IBT preparation journey
Which website can be helpful in practicing speaking questions?
@@Mzing_Anonymous The one she talks about in the video
As a TOEFL tutor, she's on point about all of these ^
Another top tip?
Always go from general to specific!
Can you tutor me?
Wtf does that mean?
@@ticketforlife2103 in your answers start general - "First, it is healthy." Then get more specific, explain how it's healthy and the benefits etc.
Another example: "First, the professor says *something*. He says *explain something he said further*"
I spent good amount of money on books and tutors and it took me a year to get my Toefl and I got a 105. my friend girlfriend how ever used *DmvNerds* and she got a 118 😭
Thank you so much Sybil for sharing your tips. This was one of the most useful and clear videos I've watched.

Thank you so much for the tips! It’s very helpful. I wanted to ask you if you used all of the official book or just the part of it.
Your vedios helping me a lot..Thank you very much..!❤😊
Thank you Sybil!
Thank you very much!

Hello, I can't find Brandon seo CZcams channel. Thankyou so much for the video.
Good tips, you do know that “for me personally” is a pleonasm? But, hey! Someone with such stellar score has all my respect
How is 117 not a perfect score sis😭
Because asian parents need perfect score 🤣
Women
Not women. That's toppers usual dialogue lol
Women ☕☕

Thank you so much ❤️❤️
Thank you!
Hi Sybil!
I was so impressed by the way you talk, so naturally and comfortably. I always try to memorize expressions and the ways that native speakers use in any conversations. But I forget before long... How should I deal with this problem..??
Great video
Thx you for advicing. I saw this video a single day ago, it will be clearly helpful to study toefl! However, toefl test is terribly difficult to foreigner who aren't living in english speaking country...!
It definitely is, but I truly hope you picked up some helpful tools watching this video ;)
I love the way u speak so much.
Thank you for your tips, especially listening section! I realized that I was focusing on writing, not listening. I kept making wrong answers and didn't know why, and now I know that was because I tried to perfectly complete my notetaking. Thanks to you, I left my pressure on listening behind.
*me watching : 2 weeks..?? Ah she's a native I got it
Hiiii Sybil! Thank you for all your great info about TOEFL. I have a problem which really makes me feel nervous: I hope you can give me a tip. In gonna take TOEFL home in a few days and my desk has a "pull-out keyboard tray". I want to place my whiteboard on the keyboard tray. And my laptop is on the desk. Do you think I should put the whiteboard on the desk surface too ?
Wow you sound great. congrats.
Thanks for tips! I saw all your TOEFL videos but the listening was missing
Super helpful,
Thanks a lot dear Sybil Wang...
I registered this morning for the day after tomorrow :"), your video is such big help for my 2 days preparation, pray for me guys!! I'll come back again with my score, hihihi
How much u got
How much you got
How did it go?
thanks for the tips (from a toefl teacher)
Each second in this video is great important
Thank you for the amazing tips Sybil!! I have a very important question!! On the Listening Section, can you see the questions while you hear the audio or do they only pop up after?
They pop up after!
I have only two days to prepare for an urgent TOEFL iBT test, I found this really helpful. Thank you so much.
Thank you for being so supportive! Wishing you all the best!!
Please can you share your toefl IBT preparation with us in order to share the benefit and we are going to be very grateful to you
how did it go ?
University Lecturer Well, actually my English is not that good! And it was my very first time talking TOEFL or IELs. My tips would be just to make sure that you know and understand the whole process of testing system, you also need to be very flexible and carefully complete all the 4 parts of TOEFL. More importantly, please practice pre-test as much as possible.
Suleyman Agamoglanli it was great, I satisfy with what I have done.
Perfect!
Thank u!!
Sybil!
i’m korean high school students.
my school is relatively in the rural .
so my friends, my parents, and my all around people don’t think about broad university.
they are only conceiving me to go to korean university.
but i don’t wanted to satisfy this small university in the small country
I wanted to see more huge world and I want to be nice.
so recently , I’m looking for tips for toefl and SAT in the youtube and I find you be there!
Because you are almost native, although There is surely a gap , I think it so fortunate to me to look for you in youtube
thanks for a tips in native’s view 😁😁
though my English is somewhat awkward😓 but I ‘m going to enter my dream university at any cost!!
thanks again Sybil , and wish my best of luck and pray for me please.
See you later in USA.
I hope that all your dreams come true 🤍 good luck
Thanks for your video, I have the toefl at the end of week and I have a lot of pressure! I hope it goes well :)
Thanks for your efforts
please can you make a video for speaking section
Thanks a lot.
Hi, thank you so much for sharing your greatest tips & tricks! I am contemplating whether to buy the book you suggested or not. I have signed up for the test 15 of January and I need a score above 92p. Did you experience the book as essential in your preparation?
Hi! That’s really helpful and could you please tell me what resource is best for practice reading?
I’m taking my Home Edition Test in 30mins and I’m finishing up my preparations and doing last-minute reviews.
I’m going in on my own with no tips and tricks and just the insight I got from the TOEFL free prep resources and a practice volume.
Will check in after! Wish me luck.
how did it go
Share yours Toefl IBT test with us
How did it go
Hi !! Thank you so freaking much for the help, i just have a single question, What's better TOEFL at home or the test center?? And thanks again we appreciate your help a lot
Hello Sybil, but I scored 116 on my TOEFL exam last week !!!!!!! Thank you so much for your tips, must say, your videos are hugely helpful
Hi,
What resources did you use for preparation and how long have you been preparing for the exam?
@@kajalraut4185 I took official TOEFL lessons with a professional teacher :) I've been preparing since April, so some four months
I will take my exam in 1 day and 17 hours. I'm kind of nervous and scared. Watching people who took the home edition share their good experiences makes me feel better and confident with myself, TOEFL committee, and Proctor U. Wish me best of luck and pray for me please. Thank you guys! and Thank you Sybil for this helpful video! Best of luck everyone! I pray we all get the score we need!
how did it go? hope u nailed it
@@hamadnossier2953 Hi! It went so great. I got more than the score that I needed. I received my score and it was 91. :)
@@ricamaenava wow that's really great. May I ask you how long have you been preparing for the exam?
@@hamadnossier2953 Around 3 weeks, but I only studied 30 min-1 hour a day because I was busy.
how much did it cost you? huhu I am planning to take it this month.
your hair is so beautiful
Also, I wanna share with you that I had enter NCCU this September! As a little fan of you, I bet I’ll be real exited when I run into you someday in the campus 🥺🥺
Congrats and hopefully I’ll see you around!!
Hi, Thank you for the video and sharing Tips, which they are really useful. I have a Question about speaking section.
Should I click on submit and save my answer for each question on TOEFL iBT, or the software just does that automatically?
I really appreciate that if you answer my question. Thank you
Sybil: where did you find the audio tracks for the listening practice sets of the official guide? I bought it as you recommended, but the software only shows the practice tests :/ please, help
She’s one of the rare toefl takers that does sound like she actually got the highest score.
