    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.

    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

What is the TOEIC exam, and what does it measure?

The TOEIC (Test of English for International Communication) is a standardized test designed to assess the English language proficiency of non-native English speakers, especially in a professional or workplace context. The TOEIC exam measures a test taker’s ability to understand and use English in a business or work-related environment. It assesses listening and reading skills, which are critical for effective communication in international business settings.
TOEIC scores are not typically used for immigration purposes. These scores are primarily used for employment and educational purposes.

How is the TOEIC exam structured?

The TOEIC exam consists of two main sections: Listening Comprehension and Reading Comprehension. Each section is further divided into parts, and the total test duration is approximately 2 hours and 30 minutes. The Listening Comprehension section includes tasks related to conversations, talks, discussions, and conversations with a question-and-answer format. Test takers listen to audio recordings and respond to questions assessing their understanding of spoken English.
The Reading Comprehension section involves reading various texts, such as articles, advertisements, and workplace-related documents. Test takers answer questions that assess their understanding of written English.

How is the TOEIC exam scored?

The TOEIC exam is scored on a scale of 10 to 990 points. Each section (Listening and Reading) is scored separately, and the total score is the sum of the two section scores. The score report also provides a separate indication of performance in each section. The TOEIC exam does not have a passing or failing score. The score assesses proficiency levels, and institutions or employers set their own score requirements. The good scores on the TOEIC exam vary depending on the context and purpose. Generally, a score above 700 is considered proficient, while scores above 900 indicate advanced proficiency.
TOEIC scores are typically valid for two years from the test date. After this period, the scores expire. There is no limit to how many times you can take the TOEIC exam. However, checking with test centers for availability and scheduling details is advisable so you don’t miss out on a chance.

Are there any specific strategies to excel in the TOEIC exam?

Successfully navigating the TOEIC exam requires a combination of language skills and effective test-taking strategies. Before listening to the audio, quickly read through the questions. This helps you focus on specific information while listening. Utilize the provided scratch paper to jot down key points, numbers, and keywords during the listening passages. This can assist in answering questions accurately. Train yourself to listen actively. Focus on the main ideas, details, and speaker attitudes. Regular listening practice in English can enhance your comprehension skills. Pay attention to how words are pronounced and the intonation used by speakers. This can provide additional clues about the meaning or emphasis of a sentence.
Quickly skim through the text to understand the main topic, headings, and structure before delving into the questions. Identify and underline keywords in the questions. Look for these keywords in the text to locate the relevant information. Read the passages carefully. Note how the information is organized and know the relationships between sentences. Allocate a specific amount of time to each set of questions. Avoid spending too much time on a single question, as this could impact your ability to complete the entire section.
Work on expanding your vocabulary to express ideas more precisely during the speaking tasks. Take a few seconds to organize your thoughts before responding to a question. This helps in delivering a coherent and well-structured answer.

How can I prepare for the TOEIC exam?

Various preparation materials include official TOEIC preparation books, practice tests, and online resources. Some test takers also choose to enroll in TOEIC preparation courses. TOEIC preparation courses provide a detailed understanding of the test format, structure, and types of questions that will be encountered in each section of the exam. This familiarity helps reduce anxiety and boosts confidence.
Qualified instructors in TOEIC preparation courses provide expert guidance on language proficiency, test-taking strategies, and best practices. They offer valuable insights into what examiners look for in responses.
