TOEFL Speaking Topics and Suggestions
I will be sharing detailed information and recommendations about the speaking part of TOEFL.,
First of all, in the speaking section you have 20 minutes and you are expected to complete 6 different tasks during this time. 6 Different tasks involve answering 6 questions.But in this section, you read texts, listen to pieces and prepare to speak.This means that your actual speaking time in the TOEFL speaking exam is around 6-7 minutes.
In this case;
* You should move forward knowing that you have limited time.
* You are given a period of 15-20 seconds before each question. If you try to write full sentences about what you are going to say during this time, you probably won't be able to get enough time; Instead, it will be more helpful for you to write down keywords.
* In this part, since you will be speaking to the computer, it may be harder than normal speaking practice. In order to familiarize yourself with this process, you can practice by talking to the computer and recording your voice before the exam. Don’t forget the fact that practice makes it perfect.
* Keeping calm will help you gather your mind and make it easier to focus.
We talked about the importance of practicing. Now I will share some examples of topics you are expected to talk about in the TOEFL Speaking section. You can include these issues in your work and have an efficient preparation process.
