30 highly interactive sessions are conducted over approximately 45 – 50 days.
The highlight of these sessions is that they not only prepare you for the
TOEFL® iBT, they also give you the confidence to communicate better in everyday
life.
The breakup of these 30 classes is as follows:
The first 3 classes focus on Basic language and accent skills, similar sounding
words (homophones) and on common idioms and phrases. In these classes
familiarity with the various American accents will be developed in addition to
a focus on language use.
For the Reading Comprehension section 6 classes will be conducted. As is the
case with all T.I.M.E. courses, we will start with the basics, move to practice
exercises and end with practice tests. All types of questions that you are
likely to see in the TOEFL ® iBT such as “identify the most suitable heading
for the given passage” or meanings of words, or pronoun references, will be
covered in these classes.
To train you for the Listening section of the TOEFL® iBT, we have 6 classes,
all of which will be conducted with the aid of (Audio) CDs.
Speaking is perhaps the section that most students are wary of. We have 8
classes over which we will prepare you for this section. There are a total of
six speaking tasks on the TOEFL® iBT and we have one class dedicated for the
understanding and practice of each of these tasks. The last two classes are
revisions or mini tests. Each student will have the opportunity to speak in
class and will get feedback from a specially trained faculty. Audio CDs are
used in class for most of these sessions.
We have 7 classes dedicated to the writing section of the TOEFL® iBT. We will
start form the basics of writing, have one class on functional grammar and 5
classes for the two tasks that you will encounter in the TOEFL® iBT. In these
classes, you will actually write essays in class and will receive feedback on
your performance from specially trained faculty. Specially developed audio CDs
aid the faculty in some of these classes.
We are confident that this is the best and the most comprehensive TOEFL® iBT
programme and that you will benefit immensely from your decision to join
T.I.M.E.
