TOEFL, IELTS, TOEIC

Power Preparation for TOEFL, IELTS and TOEIC* preparation are highly structured, comprehensive courses of study with a proven record of success. Participants will be challenged to work hard, learn efficiently and study strategically to ensure exam success.

The morning periods (periods 1 to 4) concentrate on developing common core reading, critical writing and note taking skills. In the afternoons (periods 5 to 7), the emphasis is on speaking, listening and writing skills for exam questions and real time test drills to ensure your readiness for test day. In addition to covering all skill areas, the courses include assignments and computer practice on a regular basis.

Non-test review classes on grammar, vocabulary and writing will ensure that you have a solid foundation for the exam. Skills and Strategies for each of the sections of the test are provided with clearly defined steps to improve performance on the test. Complete Tests, in both paper and computer format for the TOEFL, will allow you the experience of taking actual exam tests with all of the sections together in one complete test.

TOEIC students have the option of taking Core English or Focus on Communication in the morning periods. For more information on the TOEIC Focused Course see Focused Courses.
