Description

If you are planning to study at en English language university or college or just want worldwide recognition of your English skills, you should prepare for the TOEFL (Test of English as a Foreign Language). The TOEFL is the most well-known and universally accepted English language proficiency test in the world. Our TOEFL Preparation Course has been specifically designed to upgrade your English skills in all areas plus provide you with the skills and practice you need to do well on the test. The course includes ten group lessons of general English plus ten private TOEFL preparation lessons each week.

The latter involves skills and strategies for academic vocabulary building, academic reading, essay writing, independent and integrated speaking tasks, note-taking and more and are customized to the student’s individual needs. As in all of our courses at English Encounters you also receive a weekly self-study package, which includes additional test-preparation exercises for all skills.
