Start with the section that is holding your score down
Each course covers every task type in that section of the 2026 exam, in the order the test presents them. The first lesson of every course is free to read in full.
TOEFL Reading Course
Two adaptive modules, 50 items, 30 minutes. Learn every question type and the pacing that keeps you ahead of the clock.
TOEFL Listening Course
Four task types across two adaptive modules. Train your ear on real audio, then learn what the questions are actually testing.
TOEFL Writing Course
Build a Sentence, Write an Email, and Write for an Academic Discussion. Three tasks, 20 raw points, 23 minutes.
TOEFL Speaking Course
Seven Listen and Repeat items and a four-question video interview, in eight minutes. Record, compare against model answers, and fix what is costing you marks.
Lessons teach the method, tests tell you whether it stuck
The two halves of the site do different jobs, and using them in the wrong order is the most common way students waste a month.
Start with a test, not a lesson
Sit one timed practice test before you open a single lesson. Not because the score matters yet, but because a band on the board turns "I need to get better at TOEFL" into "my Writing is 2.5 and my Listening is 6", and those two statements lead to completely different months of work. Studying the section you are already strong at is the most expensive mistake in TOEFL preparation, and it is almost always made by students who never measured first.
Work the weakest section, in order
Inside a course the early lessons cover scoring and strategy that the task lessons build on, so working through in order is worth it. Across courses the order does not matter at all. If Speaking is what is holding your band down, start there and ignore the rest until it moves.
Then measure again
A method you have read is not a method you can use under a clock. After a course, sit another timed test in that section and compare the two attempts. That is the loop that actually moves a band: measure, learn the method for what is failing, prove it under time, repeat.
What is inside a lesson
Every lesson opens with a direct answer to the question in its title, then works through the method with examples taken from the real 2026 task formats. Practice questions are built into the page, and each wrong option has its own explanation of why it is wrong rather than a bare tick or cross. Listening lessons carry exam-format audio with the transcript hidden until you have answered. Speaking lessons run the real clock, record you, and only then reveal a model answer with a breakdown of what makes it score.
Which course to open first
A rough guide if you have not taken a test yet and want somewhere to begin.
If your exam is in under two weeks
Do not try to work all four courses. Take a full test, find your lowest section, and work only that course plus the pacing lesson from one other. Breadth at this point costs you the depth that would actually move the score.
If you keep running out of time
That is a pacing problem, not a knowledge problem, and every course has a dedicated pacing lesson covering how long each task is worth and when to move on. Reading and Listening are where the clock does the most damage, because both are adaptive and the first module decides which second module you are routed to.
If your Writing or Speaking band will not move
These are the two sections where students plateau despite doing plenty of practice, almost always because they are repeating the same habit under a different prompt. Start with the scoring lesson in that course. Knowing what the raters actually reward, which is rarely what students assume, usually explains the plateau in one sitting.
If you are early and have time
Work all four courses in order, starting with Reading and Listening because they are the fastest to move, and take a test after each course rather than saving them all for the end.
Common questions
What students ask before they start, including the awkward one about the Weekly plan.
They are structured courses that teach the method for every task type in the 2026 TOEFL iBT. Where a practice test measures where you stand, a lesson shows you what to do about it: how the task is built, what the scorers reward, worked examples, and practice questions that explain why each wrong answer is wrong.
The tests are timed simulations that produce a band score. The lessons are untimed teaching, with practice built into the page. Most students get the most out of doing both: take a test to find the weak section, work through that course, then take another test to see whether it moved.
The first lesson of every course is free to read in full, and every lesson shows an opening sample. Full access to all 45 lessons is included with the Monthly and Premium plans.
No. The Weekly plan covers all 80 practice tests and unlimited expert evaluation on Writing and Speaking, but not the courses. Practice Lessons are part of the Monthly and Premium plans.
Within a course it helps, because the early lessons cover scoring and strategy that the task lessons build on. Across courses it does not matter at all. If Speaking is what is holding your band down, start there.
Yes. If you are signed in, your completed lessons save to your account and follow you across devices. If you are not signed in, progress is remembered in that browser only.
Yes. Every Listening task lesson has audio clips recorded in the same formats as the exam, with the transcript revealed after you answer so you can check what you missed rather than guessing.
Yes. The Speaking lessons let you record yourself against the real clock, play it back, and then compare it with a model answer, along with an explanation of what makes that answer score.
Find the weak section first
A timed mock test tells you which of the four courses to start with. All 80 tests are free to take, with expert evaluation on Writing and Speaking.
