    I'm coming back to this video after receiving my TOEFL scores! I had around 10 days to study and I was very worried about the speaking section, especially because I was so out of practice and I have ADHD, which makes it hard to gather my thoughts on such a short time. However, today I found out that I got an overall score of 113 (R:30, L: 28, S:27, W:28), which is so much better than I could have imagined. Your videos and guidance were crucial for me, I can't thank you enough!

    I took the test and this was my score:
    Reading - 29
    Listening - 27
    Speaking - 9
    Writing - 25
    Overall: 90
    The speaking section of the test feels like a social skill and general knowledge test, not an English-speaking test. I got questions that I wouldn't be able to answer in my own native language... But I guess I have no choice but to accept reality and take the exam again after "preparing" for the test through this channel.

    I was preparing for my test and I would always wait for the end when Josh would reappear and it would be such a friendly face and was a calming agent to my practice. He would say stuff like congratulations you've reached till the end that shows you're serious and stuff like that. I prepared from the templates that Josh had in the description and got a score of 30/30 in speaking. I didn't focused much on the other sections and didn't do very good in them but was able to get 20 above in each section which was still an accomplishment for me. So here I am thanking Josh for being such a good teacher, mentor and support system in reaching my desired score in speaking and all the other sections. Thankyou Josh you're a gem.

Most important, is about Marriage, Chile is a very traditional country where family is a fundamental value, where marriage is a very important step in order to create a family.

    Quick tips for aspiring students; like me, you may phase out at reading section but take a couple of secs to hold yourself together and get back to the section.

    I think it’s better to read books using and electronic digital devices for several reason,first I personally always use my digital phone whenever I wanted to read a book because it’s much more easier to control and faster. Moreover, nowadays using books that are made from paper became an old method of reading books second, you have to go to the library in order to get some books that you want and it will Tokyo some time to return them to the library and it’s too much work in order to read a paper book this is why I personally prefer using an electronic device when I read books.

  • @senjin8244
    @senjin8244 Год назад

    Hi Josh, A question puzzled me all the time about speaking section, should I always have to pick a side? or I can just stay neutral?
    for example, the question - It is a matter of personal opinion whether or not children should receive money for doing household tasks such as cleaning. Here are some points to consider for both sides of the argument:
    For:
    Children who contribute to household tasks may feel a sense of accomplishment and responsibility, which can be valuable character-building experiences.
    If children are paid for doing household tasks, it can teach them the value of hard work and the importance of earning money.
    In some cases, children may be able to use the money they earn from doing household tasks to save for something they want, which can help them learn about financial planning and budgeting.
    Against:
    Household tasks are a normal part of being a member of a family and should be expected of children as a part of their responsibilities and contributions to the household.
    Paying children for household tasks may give the impression that they are only willing to do them if they are rewarded, which could create a negative dynamic within the family.
    Depending on the child's age and maturity level, they may not be ready to handle the responsibility of managing money and could end up spending it impulsively or unwisely.
    Ultimately, whether or not to pay children for doing household tasks is a decision that should be made by the parents based on the individual needs and circumstances of their family.
    can I answer like that as a neutral?

    • @TSTPrep
      @TSTPrep  Год назад +1

      We usually recommend that a student sticks to one side of the argument because it makes your writing clearer and more persuasive. However, if you feel comfortable taking a middle-ground stance, that is fine too. Just be sure that the question does not specify that you pick just one side (it usually won't).

    The only problem I face here is that I can not carry on speaking for the full 60 seconds or sometimes even 45seconds because I run out of ideas and get confused. I start repeating stuff which I think will result in deduction of my marks :/ so what should I do to improve it?

      If you need additional help, you should work with a teacher to give you consistent feedback or at least try a 30-minute speaking evaluation - tstprep.com/toefl-store/toefl-speaking-evaluation/

    Do i have the right to take notes while the lecture is on?

    • @TSTPrep
      @TSTPrep  2 года назад

      Sure! You can take notes whenever you like. The only exception is at the beginning of a section when they are reading directions (or during the 10-minute break time in the middle of the test).

    Great Video. Just Hate English Tests. You can be way better than the Native English Speakers and you still have to do the tests. Though I reckon its the same for Chinese, Spanish and countries that require Language tests. Love the Video Though & The Tips (Very Helpful).

    Hi Josh! First of all, I just wanted to thank you. I'll take the TOEFL in March and I'm so super excited about it (and unfortunately I am so nervous). Even all the anxiety I have right know, I truly want you to know that you are the best teacher ever! Literally. Thanks for everything you've done for us and I believe I will come back here after took my TOEFL and I'll thank you again.
    Also I have a little issue about speaking section, I hope you can help me. So I've never take the test before but I've heard some things. Is it true that everyone in the test room will speak at the same time? It kinda looks scary for me. I just don't know how to deal with it or what am I gonna exactly do :/ I really need your advice.
    Thank you.
    Stay healthy! ❤️

      First of all, thank you for taking the time to leave such a nice comment. As for your question, you will have to speak in a room with other people speaking at the same time. Here is a link to my video called, TOEFL Speaking is Weird (3) - How to Speak in a Noisy Room - ruclips.net/video/COYc2ZUAAFw/видео.html. Hope you find it useful!

      Every student is unique, so it is hard for me to give advice to you in particular, but you may want to try a trial lesson with one of our teachers for more personalized help and guidance. buttstprep.com/toefl-store/toefl-trial-lesson/.
