I like the teachers - especially Gosia and Mark, the teachers for the TOEFL Preparation classes. They’ve got everything controlled very well in the classes. I would recommend GEOS to my friends. Also, I met a great number of good friends. (Hong Xia from China)

Our TOEFL Preparation Course is designed to help students develop the listening, writing, speaking, and reading skills required for the test. The course is intensive and requires a lot of work on the students' part. Students will learn critical thinking skills and strategies that will help them feel confident and prepared to take the test. The curriculum of this class is always based on the latest version of the TOEFL test. 

 

TOEFL PREPARATION COURSE (AM & PM)
COURSE OBJECTIVES:
1. Increase your overall TOEFL score.
2. Develop confidence and technique in test taking.
3. Improve Accuracy in Speaking, Listening and Reading.

 

COURSE COMPONENTS:

1. Weekly Quizzes: There will be a quiz at the end of each week in each of the four skills to check your progress.
2. Assignments: You will be given homework assignments to help you learn and practice the concepts covered in class.

 

Your instructors will check your academic progress every session (every four weeks). You will receive a Counseling Form or Grade Report that will tell you your progress in each major TOEFL skill: listening, speaking, reading and writing. In addition, your attendance and class participation are factors taken into account when instructors put together each student’s grade report. (GEOS uses percentage scores based on 100% to show academic progress.)
