The TOEFL ITP assessments share the same rich heritage as the TOEFL test — the world's most widely
accepted and respected English-language assessment.
The TOEFL ITP and TOEFL iBT® tests are used for separate purposes and administered differently.
The TOEFL iBT test is a high-stakes assessment administered by ETS. Institutions use
TOEFL iBT test scores to make high-stakes decisions,
Test Content
A Reliable Assessment of English
The TOEFL ITP® tests are paper-based and use academic and social content to evaluate the
English-language proficiency of nonnative English speakers,
giving you confidence about your students' ability in a real-world academic setting.
All questions are multiple choice and students answer questions by filling in an answer sheet.
The tests evaluate skills in three areas:
 Listening Comprehension measures the ability to understand spoken English as it is used in
colleges and universities.
 Structure and Written Expression measures recognition of selected structural and grammatical
points in standard written English.

Writing is a craft. Skilled writers incorporate stylistic techniques into their writing for rhetorical effect. In other words, stylistic techniques enhance a piece of writing’s aesthetic, emotional or intellectual appeal. Certainly, the content of a text is important, but a writer who can organize his ideas in a unique and provocative way can increase his/her writing’s allure. Varied Sentence Structure English allows for four main sentence constructions: simple, compound, complex and compound-complex, and skilled writers use all of these.

Simply speaking, micro learning is dividing your task into very small tasks that can be done in about five minutes. For example, imagine that you’re trying to study the present perfect. You can micro learn it by dividing it into: 1. Affirmative sentences; 2. Negative sentences; 3. Questions; 4. Use; 5. Words that trigger the present perfect. This is just an example. You can divide your task the way you want, always trying to remember that every individual task should last five minutes at most. There are a lot of scientific studies that prove that lea
