I heard that too, I can't stop laughing :) , anyways he don't mean we're screwed but when the TOEFL Speaking time his finished, We are finished :) :) Hahahaaaa. Thanks Lucas and Thanks JUNG for making it fun.
HACK - before starting your speaking , listen to other people shouting near you, everyone has same questions in the room, you can listen to them and get the idea what the question was , then prepare before hand..
but the question starts one after the other one automatically, or not? or I can wait until the other person start the second question and I try to figure out the answer?
Hi Lucas. Thank you for your videos. Just one question reg the lecture on Greco Roman ideals in art. The question only asks for how art has changed. Wouldn’t it suffice to just say how art moved away from trying to represent perfect aesthetics to abstract idea which evoke feelings? The rest of the data reg cameras, decline of student numbers in painting schools etc. give reasons for why art changed, but not ‘what’ the change was.
Hi! You have correctly identified the main idea, but the question does ask you to use the points and examples from the article. So, definitely use these supporting details in your answer.
Oh my gosh. I'm taking my toefl exam tomorrow and I'm so nervous! I've taken this exam about 4 years ago, I was satisfied with my scores and so I've put everything behind. Now, I don't remember what happened during that day that could be useful for me tomorrow :( Cramming everything in my head in one night.
You never know what you'll see on your actual exam, so it's good to see a variety of simpler and more complex practice questions during your studies. Don't get discouraged, and keep studying!
there are many ways to answer a question if it does still contain the main idea which is supported by examples in lecture.( ı am talking about question 4 ) What do you suggest if I use judgement by scholars to describe situation that are mentioned in reading as an introduction part of my response?
Most of these questions are out of date. In fact, the real questions in the exam have a new pattern, in question 1 and 2 there are three choices, and you pick one of them and talk about it. So please the next time you post something make sure the ETS sill bring questions like it. It is not a good thing to waste student's time, on some trivial, old material, just to promote your business
Lucas, indeed the question have changed. I took the test today and it was similar to what Mohamad described. I followed your videos over the last month and thanks god I`ve read this comment and notice the change. Cheers!
I like your tutorials. Thank you very much, but still haven't got information about recent changes. We are a little worried. Will you inform us please?
HI LUCAS! I am a TOEFL teacher too. You guys are great. THE ETS has indeed added a three option prompt and are using it more and more. I am not surprised they didn't answer you as they like to be secretive. Your materials and blog are great. Thanks Lucas.
Lucas Fink hi, there I will take the toefl this month is there any advice u can give me or a site to practice im watching ur videos I hope it would be helpful
Hello Lucas, great video! A question to you (or any TOEFL speaking expert here): will I see the question while I record my answer to the question, or will it disappear? Thanks in advance!
Hello Lucas, I tried sent a few messages in your website, but no body responded to me. Are writing and speaking grades in your website? is there daily study plan?
Hi! Lucas can you please give me some tips regarding q4! Ive practiced a couple of q but i get so confused! i think its the hardest in the speaking section. I only have a day left in my test!!!!
holy fuckin shit i am done i cant memorize what the hell i ate today NOT that i dont understand it but it more like talkin to the girlfriend while she gabbling
my advice: don't take notes! it will only take you out of the zone. Stay focused and you will remember the info you need for sure, short term memory IS a thing, so use it, and believe in your brain. Just make sure that you structure your answer and not rush. Use linking words. Good luck!
Hi !!! I will go to take the test TOEFL but I don't really know what I need to study. And then I will take the nursing test also I want to know if the questions will set up on nursing or the other things . Please someone can help me. Thx in advance
I'm incredibly good at the writing section since, for all of my career, I've been given the assignment of writing 250 words essays in English. In that section, lots of vocabulary flow from my mind very quickly, but when I'm speaking... I BECOME A COMPLETE MORON WHAT CAN I DO HALP
I just couldn't have a decent answer right in the first question... you don't want to know the embarrassing day I remembered hahahahahahhaa Just can't talk about it! What the heck! I couldn't remember a less embarrassing thing for 5 minutes..
Hi Gustavo! It's unlikely you will get that exact question on the TOEFL so don't worry. However, during the exam don't overthink the question too much. You want to commit to a topic and focus on showcasing your language skills. The graders won't know if you leave out or make up details :)
@@MagooshTOEFL thank you very much for you tips (: I'll prepare myself studying some templates to think about things I'm not usually thinking about... 😂
Is it guided? No, you won't be speaking to an actual person, it will be recorded. You can learn more here: magoosh.com/toefl/2020/toefl-speaking-tips-pdf/
Your reading speed can definitely improve with time and practice, and keep in mind that if the length of your response can only be so many seconds then the test doesn't require you to be too detailed or fancy. Rather, you need to give evidence that you can organize and share your thoughts in English. :)
Am I the only one thinking that Question 4 is the easiest question among all of them? The other questions are quite easy too once I calm down tbh. But Question 4? Answering that question is as easy as smashing a bloody Chinaman's glassy heart into tiny pieces lol.
Hey, surprisingly I had the best Mark in this field 28/30 I think that the notation is really lenient, (you hear people speak as you speak so you have to talk louder too) and articulate and dont rush have clear ideas in mind. I think that when I prepared the answer over and over during the 15 sec and sec of preparation ( on this channel) I just cant talk for 30 sec after, but when I dont exercice during the 15 sec and sec of preparation and just say what I think directly it's easier
I know so many good words to use but when i'm practicing for toefl speaking section i'm just using some simple words !! What can i do for this problem? Best regards,
Hi Nastaran! This is a common problem! It can take a while to go from knowing a word and being able to use it in your conversation. The best way to improve this is by having conversations with native speakers as much as possible. If you don't have someone to talk to, listen to lectures in English. As you listen, pause every so often to imitate the speaker or summarize what the speaker is saying in your own words. Check out this blog post for listening suggestions: magoosh.com/toefl/2014/how-to-practice-toefl-listening/
It's a good video or a good system to practice, when I saw this video I lost all my English and how to tolk, thank you
*TALK, pay attention!
"When the time is finished, YOU'RE FINISHED" ...lol 😂 he already knows we're already screwed
I heard that too, I can't stop laughing :) , anyways he don't mean we're screwed but when the TOEFL Speaking time his finished, We are finished :) :) Hahahaaaa. Thanks Lucas and Thanks JUNG for making it fun.

@@stephaniamunozbravo2791 bro use the discount.
is only me, or anybody else had a lot of difficult to complete these questions? Omg, was really too complicated. Number 4 was the worst one.
Danilo Mendonça Same here. I just wanna cry right now.
I am crying right now
i am crying.
I had no idea what to say in the 4th question 😭
Lol, I'm from Ecuador and this is way too easy.

haha. your idea is crazy man.
shubham patel 😂😂😂😂 u r offering to cheat
That's what I need..tha atmosphere of the toefl which on we can work well and never be confused..many thanks
in my opinion ! if a foreigner wants to get high score in licensing and speaking , must to memorize the academic lectures as much as he/ she can
Omg I'm screwed I couldn't even think of smth embarrassing let alone talk about it I wanna cry how tf am I supposed to be prepared for this 😭😭😭😭
Great lesson ! That s gonna help me a lot for taking the teofl.

how was it?
so, what's your result bro?
Awesome video! I was so nervous about taking the TOEFL test, but now, I feel confident. Thanks Magoosh!
Guys, number 4 seems kind of daunting but if you practice taking notes and summarizing them in your own words, it becomes much easier.
You are the best!! i will study with your channel thank u!
Awesome, very helpful video. Thanks, Magoosh!
Before giving this test I thought my English is good but after giving this my thinking changed woow.
Challenging yourself like this is what makes you better! Keep it up :)

I am not understand for this video and you are give me some trick how to speak fastly come in our mind?
How can we read a text in 45 s and respond on one minute this is insane.
Your reading speed can definitely improve with time and practice, and keep in mind that if the length of your response can only be so many seconds then the test doesn't require you to be too detailed or fancy. Rather, you need to give evidence that you can organize and share your thoughts in English. :)
