how did magoosh help you?
i cannot thank more to the magoosh preparation course for toefl. thank you very much to the team, thank you to the 1 month preparation course, i could hit the score i wanted, my goal was 100, but 96 was pretty close enough to achieve my goals. i needed at least 88, so i think i may have a have a good chance to earn the scholarship i need to study where i want. i have some good basis of english as second language, but as i've heard from friends and you, the toefl is about communication and here's when the course helped me a lot. the videos were clear, the exercises help me to realize my weaknesses and work on them i have improved my skills in english in general. i'm aware my english needs to keep improving, in that regard, i will keep studying using what i learn in the grammar lessons and of course using the youtube videos and blog entries from magoosh. if i had the money surely, i would like to re-take the test to see if i can break the 100 frontier. for now, my current scores accomplish my goals. once again thanks to the magoosh for making your prices accessible i hope you keep it that way. thank you for your simulations and constant support through the apps, e-mails and all your platforms. |

how did magoosh help you?
magoosh helped me practice reading just like the actual toefl exam . i had an issue with the time . however, after practicing through magoosh and setting time for myself i improved a lot. plus the videos provided by magoosh for each question. explaining all the answers given. moreover, i practiced a lot for the integrated writing . definitely all the videos and notes from magoosh for each topic helped me improve a lot. |

how did magoosh help you?
magoosh helped me prepare for the exam by providing me with the tools that i needed to succeed. since the beginning i knew that i needed to focus on the speaking and writing sections. therefore, i followed their advice and practice as much as i could during the short time i had to prepared. although my writing score is lower than what i was expecting, now i know which components of the writing section i need to improve and practice until i retake the exam. thank you!! |

how did magoosh help you?
i was away from home and did not have much access to official materials.i bought toefl online course from magoosh and prepared for only 1 week before i appear for toefl. therefore magoosh is the only study partner i relied on and truly they did not disappoint me at all. the lesson videos are very very good and information rich. i tired to follow the exact strategies that lucas talked about in his demonstrations and examples and finally received a score of 107.during my preparation phase i was mostly struggling with the speaking section since i was not able to finish/summarize the speech in such short time.however, i followed the instructions religiously and kept practicing.luckily,in real exam i was only unable to finish one speaking task. overall magoosh prep was very helpful and i would recommend my friends going forward . |

how did magoosh help you?
to me, toefl was very hard exam. even though, i do speak english every day and i don’t have a problem, this exam was a real challenge for me. last time i had 90. i needed 94 for my school. i really didn’t know how to improve my score ... until i found magoosh. after only 2 weeks of practicing with magoosh material, i took the exam. i was surprised that i got 99! i improved my score for 9 points! thank you all the people and lucas especially who gave me such a good video explanations. this test is all about strategy and i needed real tips and practical examples. to conlude hehe now i am writing in toefl style, i have to say that this is the best practice material . even better, this is the best and the cheapest you will find! thank you magoosh❤️ now i can apply to my university and pursue my professional goals. |
