    I find my lessons with Annette extremely useful for practising the speaking component of the OET. We manage to complete two scenarios in half an hour, and I can see that I am gradually improving over time. I really enjoy working with her, and I appreciate that she often extends the lesson by a few minutes to allow us to finish reviewing the corrections or to ask me whether I need any further advice on how to improve my OET performance.

His teaching approach is ideal: lessons are well organised, and he always explains things clearly with practical examples. What I appreciate most is that he corrects my mistakes immediately and explains the reason behind each correction, which has helped me improve my writing and speaking much faster. I feel comfortable and confident in his lessons, and I can really see my progress. I would definitely recommend him to anyone preparing for the IELTS

    Under Naphan’s guidance, I learned how to speak English in a relaxed way—no rush, no pressure, no particular goal. Just chatting, going wherever the conversation takes us, and talking about whatever comes to mind. And suddenly, I realized I could speak more than I ever thought I could. I’ve come to understand that my problem was never really my mouth. It was my mindset. The more relaxed I am, the more naturally the words flow. Sometimes, the less you try to achieve, the more you gain. Thank you Naphan.

    I started Business English lessons with Joanna in October through the “Let’s Talk Corporate” programme, and the course has been tailored to my job from the very first session. She took the time to understand my daily work as a database engineer in the utilities sector, then built a twelve unit course around real topics such as metering applications, Oracle PL/SQL, billing logic and system architecture. Every lesson comes with conversation cards featuring realistic role plays between colleagues, with key grammar structures highlighted in context, vocabulary lists translated into Italian and useful professional phrases. A checklist of phrases to use during each session keeps the practice focused and measurable. Joanna is receptive, encouraging and always open to feedback, adapting the lessons whenever I suggest improvements. I would highly recommend her to any professional looking for Business English that is truly relevant to their work.

Frequently Asked Questions

The TOEFL test is widely recognized by universities and institutions worldwide as a measure of an individual’s ability to use and understand English at the university level. It is crucial for individuals seeking admission to academic programs in English-speaking countries or for professional certification purposes. The TOEFL test is important as it measures student’s ability to understand and use English at an academic level, which is crucial for success in higher education.

How is the TOEFL test structured?

The TOEFL iBT consists of four sections: Reading, Listening, Speaking, and Writing. The reading section evaluates the test taker’s ability to understand and analyze written English materials. It involves tasks like reading passages and answer questions that assess comprehension, inference, and vocabulary skills. The listening section assesses the test taker’s ability to understand spoken English in various contexts. It includes tasks like listening to conversations, lectures, and discussions and answer questions that test comprehension, inference, and note-taking skills.
The speaking section evaluate the test taker’s ability to express ideas and opinions orally in English. In this, the candidate is asked to speak on familiar topics, participate in conversations, and integrate information from reading and listening tasks. The writing section assesses the test taker’s ability to write well-organized and coherent essays in English. The test taker is asked to write responses to stimuli that require synthesizing information from reading and listening tasks and expressing personal opinions or viewpoints.

Where can I take the TOEFL test?

The TOEFL test is administered at authorized test centers around the world. Test takers can find a test center and register for the test on the official TOEFL website. It is important to note that test dates and availability may vary depending on the location. It is advisable to register for the TOEFL well in advance to secure your preferred test date and location. Additionally, make sure to check the specific requirements and regulations of the test center where you plan to take the exam. TOEFL scores are typically valid for two years from the test date. After this period, the scores expire, and individuals may need to retake the test if required for admissions or other purposes.

How to perform well in TOEFL exam?

Familiarize yourself with the structure of the TOEFL exam, including the number of sections, types of questions, and the time allotted for each section. Work on improving your reading, listening, speaking, and writing skills in English.
Practice skimming and scanning techniques to quickly identify key information in reading passages. Work on expanding your vocabulary, as a strong vocabulary is essential for understanding and answering reading questions. Practice speaking English regularly. Engage in conversations with native speakers, if possible. Record yourself responding to TOEFL-style speaking prompts and assess your fluency, pronunciation, and coherence.
Practice writing essays on a variety of topics. Focus on clear organization, well-supported arguments, and proper grammar and vocabulary usage. Develop time management skills during practice sessions. Learn to allocate your time effectively for each section.

How is the TOEFL test scored?

The TOEFL test is scored on a scale of 0 to 120, with each section (Reading, Listening, Speaking, and Writing) contributing a maximum of 30 points. Scores are based on the number of correct answers, and there is no penalty for incorrect responses. There is no universally accepted passing score for the TOEFL exam, but realistically, a collective score of 100 (25 scores for each section) is good enough to serve most purposes.
