TOEFL is an acronym of the Test of English as a Foreign Language,
which is the official name for the test. It assesses your ability to both speak
and understand English by analysing your English ability in terms of reading,
speaking, listening and writing. These are all skills which will be needed to
carry out your academic studies and the test is used by institutions to ensure
students are able to proceed and succeed on their chosen course in a country
where the curriculum is taught in English.
It is a long test
that usually requires several months of study and preparation.
And, if you are reading this post, I imagine that you probably need to take
TOEFL.
Maybe you are going to
study in a foreign country. Maybe you will work for an international company?
Wish you the best!
