Thank u Josh for all the valuable information you provide. I took the test last week and got my results 2 days back. I was shocked tbh. My scores are R:28, L:30, S:28, W:29.

Thank you so much, Josh!! I took my TOEFL exam a week ago, and I received my score today: 100/120!! R:24 L:22 S:26 W:28. I strongly advise taking the Emergency TOEFL course for those who, like me, do not have much time to prepare for the exam! I could not be more grateful, Josh! Thank you so much for all the tips and resources!! Good luck, everyone, with your TOEFL exams.

I did the test twice and the second time (January 2024) the lecture didn't contradict the reading passage. The reading provided 3 environmental problems with industries and the lecturer addressed solutions to each problem. So, I have to disagree that the lecture always contradicts the article. In fact, this idea certainly affected my writing score because I had a template in mind and when I saw this difference I didn't know what to do.
u have to improvise sometimes even if the lecturer gave solutions to each problem there was nothing to get confused about , u just had to use some common sense and change the template from "elaborate on how lecturer contradicts " to "how lecturer gave solutions to the problem" u can't get everything on the internet and for free at that and him contributing even this much is great
If you look at from minute 6:50 this type of integrated writing format is discussed, called problems and solutions. The "problems" and offering "solutions" is another way to say that the listening disagrees with the reading, if you are offering solutions to problems, you are disagreeing with them. I hope that helps to clarify.
Thank you for the content, it’s quite clear and easy to understand. Myself, I can’t deliver an essay without a conclusion😌, this is how I function 🤷🏻♀️
Thank you for this guide. I like your video, but I would like to make a suggestion. You use different examples in your video for a given question. I think it would be helpful for people preparing for the exam if you used one example throughout the video. It will be easy to follow, and also, with this, we can prepare our own response and compare it with yours. Thanks a lot once again.
Ok, it is that time of my journey where I not only thank you for all the efforts you made for us the get a top score in our TOEFL test, but also I would like to let everyone know that tomorrow will be my first attempt to appear for the exam. While writing this down I may feel a little nervous but I just want to say that really from the bottom of my heart, it would not be possible without TST Prep detailed videos and most importantly the guidance of Josh sir❤ Hopefully, I achieve a good total and make all the hard work count.
Thank you for your question. We are working on a Beta version for the writing now. Please feel free to try it out. :) tstprep.com/donate-your-academic-discussion-responses/
Thank you for the amazing videos and practice tests. I solved your practice tests and found the actual test to be much easier. I managed to score - 116/120 on my TOEFL with section-wise scores of - R30, L30, S29, W27. Thanks a lot!

Hi there and thank you for commenting. Much will depend on your current ability level and how much time you have to prepare for the test.

I am sorry but as far as I have been told there are two tasks in the writing section one is integrated writing and other is academic discussion ..... then where does the essay come into place ??
When you take the TOEFL ibt test, you will receive scratch paper for taking notes. If you take the TOEFL Home edition, you can use one small desktop whiteboard or one sheet of paper inside a transparent sheet protector, with an erasable marker.
@@nutruong9103 You can use a small desktop whiteboard. Please follow thw link for more information - www.ets.org/toefl/test-takers/ibt/register/at-home-requirements.html
My Ibt test was terrible!! The instructor stopped me in the middle of my test accusing me of academic integrity, just because I looked at my empty desk. I don't advise anyone to take it Especially that this test costs me 402$ What a scam!
Hey, Josh. Thanks for your videos. I'm loving them. I also wanted to mention that I'm extremely surprised that short sentences are considered detrimental. I'm chilean so I tend to use really long sentences that sound ok in spanish but that english native speakers find really confusing (this exact sentence, for instance, might just have been too long, but I'm not quite sure). I know this question might be too specific, but is there a certain number of words a reasonable sentence should have?
A very good question! No specific number. Also, it is ok to have some short sentences. That is natural. You just don’t want most or all of them to be short.
Thank you for your comment. If you are looking for TOEFL Speaking and Writing templates, here are the links. drive.google.com/file/d/1ZWv72rlPez6Iwt5Xk4GbhsZVDxkraJ9q/view, drive.google.com/file/d/1SJLKY3cXT9KfrhMT0d7zlD86By-VR0EB/view
Thank you Josh for all your efforts through these videos My question is, can I start my writing task 1 with the listening then write from the reading passage secondly? Because I always can’t finish writing the last point from the listening
Great question. You can write about the listening first if you like, however, you still need to cover the essential parts of the reading as well. An incomplete answer will lose points, regardless of the order.

@@shreyashikarmakar1592 Hey, so I must say, Im german, but I think for the last 5-6 years everything Im consuming is in English. From Podcasts, to TV Shows, Movies, Books so there is a pretty good basic understanding and feeling for the language in itself. And I think Im a pretty good speaker too as Im only speaking English at work and often times during my private life. I used the videos for clarification on what the specific tasks in the test were. So my score was Reading: 28, Listening: 23 (sadly very poor), Speaking: 29, Writing: 30. But yeah for preparation I only watched the videos especially for the Speaking, Listening and Writing Section. I think this is very good preparation. When do you have your test? Hmu for questions if you want :)
Thanks for the question. Your general opinion should match the same tense as the question. If you then choose to give an example in a different tense, that is ok, as long as you use a transition.
I have a question, is it okay to use words from the passage provided? Or is it better to rephrase sentences and use different words of our own for higher score?
Hi there and thank you for asking. Your "vocabulary depth" is part of your grade. Try to vary your vocabulary in general and do not use the same words and phrases as in the reading passage.
are there some cases where the listening passage doesn't go against the reading passage but it is on the same side and/or gives additional information?
The lecture ALWAYS opposes the reading passage. This has been officially confirmed to me by a rep from ETS, "Our current messaging about the Integrated Writing task is that the lecture always opposes the reading passage in some way; there is no other relationship." Hope that clears up any confusion some might have had about it.
There is no maximum length for your response. According to ETS, your integrated essay needs to be somewhere between 150-225 words. However, we find that students who write between 250 - 300 words score higher. Hope this helps!
Starting July 26, 2023, there is no break on the TOEFL iBT test. In the test center version that's sometimes allowed, but the unscheduled breaks are taken at the cost of the test time. The test doesn’t stop if someone takes a break for whatever reason. However, no breaks are allowed on the TOEFL Home Edition Test.
That's correct. You'll have 3 minutes to read and take notes and 20 minutes to write an essay. Note that during writing, the reading passage is on the screen, and you can refer to it every time you wish to.
Thank you so much for the tips. The link for the listening part of the speaking and the listening part itself, don't work, is it only to me or other people have the same inconvenient?
The reading passage/article introduces us with the topic of .... The writer states that .... He goes on to state that .... The lecturer in the listening passage disagrees. He believes that ....
In the reading passage, the writer begins by stating that .... The lecturer however disagrees. He states that ....
The author also claims that .... The lecturer believes that .... He/ The lecturer holds that ....
Another reason why the author feels .... The author in the lecture is doubtful that this is accurate. He suggests that ....
To sum up, both the author and the lecturer holds conflicting views about deforestation’s benefits and positive impacts. It’s clear that they will have trouble finding common ground on this issue.
If you take the test at a test center, the test center administrator will provide you with pencils and scratch paper. If you take TOEFL iBT Home Edition, you may not take notes on paper. You may use one small desktop whiteboard or one sheet of paper inside a transparent sheet protector with an erasable marker.
Is 1 week sufficient for preparation, if your english level is already on a good level? I have taken a practice test yeaterday with C1 score and I only need 90 for the university I want to apply for. On the other hand everyone tells me that you have to study at least 1 month in advance. But I don‘t have any more time.

Hi! In the screen appear the number of words I made?
Hi there, thank you for asking and yes, there is a word counter that counts the words in the response.
Why does he say that is between 200 and 350 word while other says that is between 150 and 225?
There is no maximum length for your response. According to ETS, your integrated essay needs to be somewhere between 150-225 words. However, we find that students who write between 250 - 350 words score higher. Hope this helps!
