TOEFL exam prep in Calgary

Preparing for the TOEFL (Test of English as a Foreign Language) might seem overwhelming, but with a practical approach, you can tackle it effectively. Here's a step-by-step guide to help you get ready for the TOEFL in a way that fits your schedule and maximizes your success.

Familiarize yourself with the test's structure—reading, listening, speaking, and writing—like a roadmap for your journey. Set clear goals, aiming for a specific TOEFL score to guide your efforts. Arm yourself with official study materials, which serve as foundational tools. Consistent practice across all sections, akin to training for a sport, hones your skills. Broaden your vocabulary through extensive reading, listening to English podcasts, and watching movies to refine your listening skills. Engage in conversations to build speaking confidence. Regular essay writing and seeking feedback improve your writing. Master time management during practice tests to handle the real thing. Learn from mistakes, utilizing online resources like Khan Academy for guidance. Take mock tests close to the test date, simulating the actual environment. Stay composed on test day, following instructions and managing time effectively.

In conclusion, TOEFL readiness entails understanding, practice, and dedication. Following these steps ensures you're well-equipped to excel in the TOEFL and demonstrate your English language skills with confidence.

Prepare for Listening / Reading

When you listen to English speakers in Calgary (or when you read) you are “decoding” which is more of a passive behaviour. It requires different skills than speaking or writing (which is called “encoding”). The TOEFL exam wants to measure how ready you are to decode lectures (or read articles and textbooks) at Canadian colleges or universities. Get individual, private exam help.

Reviews From Our
Satisfied Clients

Troy is a wonderful person and tutor. He helped me a lot in my IELTS preparation. I ended up getting the results I wanted. I really recommend Troy to anyone who needs to improve his english in a short period of time.

Worth every penny! My son finished his ELA course and had huge improvement in mark. It would not have been possible without Troys help. Troy gave our son huge confidence boost and pretty much a “formula” for ELA. We will continue to work with Troy And further improve our sons skills. Worth every minute of our time and every penny we paid. Absolutely awesome tutor!

I really enjoyed my time with Troy. He is a nice and funny tutor who knows how to teach the Alberta english curriculum really well with tips and tricks that will forever have improved my understanding of english.

Smart Tutors have been an incredible place for me to improve my english proficiency. Professor Moore is extremely friendly, has a lot of experience teaching, and gives invaluable tutoring service during his classes. Best in town, professional and very well organized.
