TOEFL® COURSE DESCRIPTION

The Test of English as a Foreign Language TOEFL® iBT Preparation course is designed to help students develop the necessary skills required for the TOEFL® test: speaking, listening, writing, and reading. The course is intensive in nature and requires a lot of work on the students' part. Students not only develop their language skills, but also have to focus on developing language taking strategies and critical thinking skills that will help them prove to evaluators that they have the required skills needed to study in a North American university. This class uses a curriculum based on the latest version of the TOEFL® test.

Student's Voice

TOEFL classes are really useful and well organized. When I first came here, I didn't plan to go to TOEFL calss, but then I realized how important the TOEFL exam is. So I decided to join TOEFL class and I was surprised because of all that is taught. The teachers teach a lot of vocabulary, strategies for the test and much in order to get a good score in the TOEFL exam. In the classes, all the students are practicing writing essays, other writing, and conversation and listening many other things. In addition, the school is very good, you make a lot of friends and there are many things to do in Vancouver. The school also has an activity every frinday. So I do remember taking TOEFL classes in GEOS Vancouver, you'll have a great experience and a very good score!
