Josh, thank you thank you so much. Your speaking n writing template did magic to my toefl ibt. I ended up with 27 for speaking and 28 for writing by using your template. I even just used 12 minutes to complete task 1. The templates saved me so much energy and time! ❤❤
Got my results back and scored 102 out of 120! As a non native speaker (my mother tongue is French) , it was more than I wanted or expected. Thank you A LOT!!! Your videos definitely helped me, understanding the structure was very useful! Good luck for the next test takers; it’ll be fine :)

Thanks for the comment Hassan and happy to help :)
Excellent video :)
Helpful! ❤
Hello, I wanted to thank you for all the videos you've made about section tips, your advices on how to take notes during listening and how to search for information when doing listening/reading really helped me during test day. Although I was very stressed during speaking, as it is hard to get to the point even when talking in my native language, keeping overall structure in the back of my head saved me.
Scored 112 (28R, 28L, 30S and 26W), which is a lot more than I expected.
how long did it take you to study?
@@ayakassem5467 I have been postponig the test day since feburary since i had difficulties with payment, but overall prep till test date took about ~1.5h a day for week, I made breaks tho. My English level didnt evolve during prep, I just had to really get used to exam format :D especially fitting all information in 60 seconds of speaking, I like to talk slow but exam doesnt allow natural flow

Hello Josh, thank you very much for your videos, they've been really helpfull. It would be awesome if you could post a mock test simulating the new TOEFL starting july 26th.
Sure! Meanwhile, check out these two videos on the new writing task - czcams.com/video/fOqXfMzB_xg/video.html, czcams.com/video/QL4r78VQq1M/video.html
Correction...the 26Jul-update will affect only timing, reading (no fake questions anymore) and writing. Which "mock" test are you talking about?
Thank you so much for this video, and whim for more speaking video in upcoming days very soon and wish for an integrated writing video practice: will you?. If okay, then before a week please if possible because it is quite zigzag for me, and I thought to all students.
And Huge thanks to all TST prep team and director for the help to the students all over the world

Hey josh ,Do more videos about ibt paper edition to get a clear cut idea about it
Thank you fo the suggestion, but we mostly focus on TOEFL iBT, sorry.
I have scheduled my exam for tomorrow.i hope that I will get a good score
Good luck!
For the first question, do we have to stick to only one side or can we express both opinions yet focusing more on the side that you are for?
There are many different ways to answer an Independent speaking question. We usually recommend that you stick to one side and focus on it, but it's not a big problem if you have both a positive and negative stance, as long as you answer the question.
Hi Josh, Thanks for making such a helpful content for all of us. I have one question please reply me, does it matters from which country you are giving an exam? does USA and India exam paper are same or different?
Thanks for taking the time to leave such a nice comment. As for your question, the test is the same in all locations.
I've wasted my time on a junk TOEFL class in my country🤦🏻♀️ After 3 loooong sessions we have not been taught these brilliant notes while we have speaking homework. I always watch your video regularly. Thank you very much❤
Thanks for commenting. You might like some of the material on our site as well, tstprep.com/
Please make more videos on integrated writing
Thank you for your suggestion. I´ll keep it in mind.
Hello Josh, please I need more help with writing for academic discussion
You can find more materials here - www.ets.org/toefl/ibt-enhancements/prep.html If you need to talk to a teacher, you could also try a trial lesson at this link and they can give you some pointers - tstprep.com/store/toefl-trial-lesson/
Since we will receive a blank paper to take notes during the test, we can also use it at speaking session? like, write the answer in the paper and read it to speak. Is there a problem?
Sure, you can use your scrap paper whenever you'd like. However, you should not read your notes, just use them as a reference.
Hey Josh, I just failed my test and I am really sad right now. I was nervous the whole test and couldn’t thing straight. Especially in the reading section. I feel like I didn’t used the 20 seconds preparation time wrong. Do you have any tips? I’m afraid I fail again
Sorry, but every student is different, so my advice changes based on the person. You might want to meet with one of our tutors for more specific advice - tstprep.com/toefl-store/toefl-trial-lesson/.
Is it right to use linking words and contractions in TOEFL speaking section?
Yes, absolutely :)
Tomorrow I’m going to do the test, wish me look :s
How did it go?
Can I use an extra sheet to notedown in the speaking section?
The test center administrator will provide you with pencils and scratch paper. You can’t request more scratch paper until you have used and returned all the pages in their entirety you initially received. You may not bring your own scratch paper to the test, remove scratch paper or a piece of scratch paper from the testing room for any purpose at any time, and you may not write on anything other than the scratch paper provided - www.ets.org/pdfs/toefl/toefl-ibt-bulletin.pdf
Have my exam tomorrow... wish me luck!
I hope it went well.
@@TSTPrep i got 27,30,28 and 26 = 111/120... Only referred to free ets material and your videos...They helped a ton. I was so worried about my scores especially listening and speaking as I got nervous when everyone started speaking. Again, thanks a lot for the free content u r providing
how was it?
@@vaidik03 A lot better than I had hoped... There were lots of noises while speaking but yeah... It went well
Hallo dear brother. First of all I would like to thank you.I really want to write and speak English. But I have a lot of trouble. What should I do?
I wrote this text for you by translating it from Amharic to English. Where should I start to write, read, listen and speak well? Can you please help me?
Hey, this channel is about TOEFL iBT test. Therefore, if you’re not familiar with English at all is not a good idea to invest in this test or watch this channel, because, it requires you to have a certain level in English. Instead you should try watching other CZcams channels which teach basic English! Good Luck buddy and keep it up!! Your desire to learn English can take you far away! 👍
I missed my required score by 1 point, thus can't apply for my dream University. I wıll work day and nigth. How much time do I need for studying TOEFL? I must submit my official score until 1st of July.
Every student is unique, so it is hard for me to give advice to you in particular, but you may try a trial lesson with one of our tutors for more personalized assessment and guidance - tstprep.com/toefl-store/toefl-trial-lesson/
Hello your videos are very interesting. But I what to know if TOEFL is different from TOEFL IBT ? Are they the same or different?
We often refer to TOEFL iBT as TOEFL. However, there are other types of the TOEFL test. If you are confused about the types of TOEFL
exams, check out this article -tstprep.com/articles/types-of-toefl-exams/.
How to get more fluency in English and how to improve my vocabulary and grammar
I would suggest investing time in a site like LingQ where you can do some extensive practice that is not connected to the TOEFL, that way you can build your skills and vocabulary with text that is a little bit easier before moving ahead with the TOEFL. If you need to talk to a teacher, you could also try a trial lesson at this link and they can give you some pointers - tstprep.com/store/toefl-trial-lesson/
This might be a little bit weird question, but I have to ask it.
Can I have a marker with me on the test day, so I can underline some important points while reading the passages on the screen? 🤨
No, you can't.
hi, one question. Is 95 a good score? I score 95 (R:22, L:29, S: 21, W:23). Speaking section was the hardest, I got distracted, btw thank you for your videos💟
It depends on who you ask, but relatively speaking it is fairly high. The definition of a “good score” and the requirements for each university or license board can vary significantly. You must check with your program to confirm its requirements.
It is decent, not enough to get into top of the top schools in US, but probably good enough for t2-t3 unis, or almost any uni in europe (except for UK)
Hello guys. I would like to ask a question. I just got my TOEFL IBT score of 77 but my university program requires for a 80. I have already paid the tuiton fee completed my enrollment but I did get trough from harsh time. Which shouldnt be considered as a excuse. My deadline day is coming in about 20 days, is there any chance there that I could get in. I have already past math exam ext. Thank you sincerely..
Just retake toefl asap and that’s it. Maybe the uni accepts best scores as well, so even more chances. Or ask a uni whether toefl req can be waived for you at least for some time until you retake it
Josh!! Please help me. I took the toefl today and at the end of the test I saw my reading and listening scores. I clicked Record My Score first, then on the other page I clicked Cancel My Score. What's going to happen? Is my scores going to be deleted? Only speaking and writing will record? I'm so scared right now I don't know what to do
I'm sorry, but I don't know the answer to this. You will have to contact someone at ETS, www.ets.org/toefl/contact
Can you pls give an update on the situation?
@@vaidik03 oh, it turned out bad. they cancelled my score immeditely. i found out on their website. there's an option for this situation, you pay what it costs and their send you your score. i paid the money and got my results a few days later.

You should check for the institution's minimum requirements so you can learn whether or not your TOEFL score needs to be at a certain level. Hopefully, that answers your question.

How can I solve this problem in a short period of time

Haha, no, it's old. I just never wear short sleeve shirts for videos. It was hot that day.
Today i received my trial Toefl score which i took in the official center and i got 82(21S, R/ 18L, 22R) what do u think in the real exam it would change slightly or there is a chance to get a higher score than trial exam or less ? i will take real exam 10 June.. Btw, really thanks a lot for ur worthwhile endeavor , they helped me significantly
Congratulations on your trial scores! It is important to understand that while trial scores may give you a general idea of your level, you cannot assume you will get these exact scores on the real test. A person's score on the real TOEFL may be slightly or in some cases drastically different. This is because the questions and topics on the exam will vary. Also, test takers are often more nervous during the actual exam. In short, you could do the same, better, or not as well.
