TOEFL Study Guide

TOEFL (Test of English as a Foreign Language) is an examination created by the Educational Testing Service to measure English proficiency in non-native speakers. It is a required exam for foreign students interested in pursuing undergraduate or graduate study at American universities. TOEFL tests are given year-round at numerous locations in the United States and are also available online. The TOEFL is divided into 4 sections: listening, structure, reading and writing.

Since 1963 the TOEFL has been used as a standard measure of the English proficiency of candidates who apply for scholarships offered by the government and universities.

There are currently three testing methods available:

1. Paper-based TOEFL
2. Computer-based TOEFL
3. Institutional TOEFL
