TOEFL EXAM PREPARATION
(4 Weeks Only)
TOEFL is a primarily a writing and speaking course, rooted in good listening
and reading comprehension.
TOEFL scholarship worldwide has focused on four major themes:
Inter-Connection & Global History
Accommodation & Institutional Sociology
Fortification & Cultural Demography
Conflict-resolution & Heroic Biographies
Accordingly, we train students elaborate and analyze these themes appropriately, according to context. Writing assignments begin at the level of a given learner. From simpler to more complex themes, we explorer The Tale of the Rabbit and Tortoise, The Story of Rosa Parks, The Legend of John Henry(Man of Steel), The Autobiography of Daniel Boone, The Biography of Frederick Douglass, The Achievements of Eleanor Roosevelt and the Career of Hugo Chavez. Students thereby learn to identify point-of-view, conflicts of interest, shifting contexts and expanding opportunities, in order to formulate and contribute meaningful inights in any sort of academic task.
