TOEFL iBT Preparation
Students sitting the TOEFL iBT for university admission, who need the test as it is now rather than as older preparation books describe it
هذه الدورة تجهّزك لاختبار توفل بصيغته الحالية. وهذا مهم: فقد أُعيد بناء الاختبار في يناير 2026، وصار مدته نحو ساعتين بدل ثلاث، وصارت أقسام القراءة والاستماع تتكيّف مع مستوى المتقدم، واستُبدل مقياس الدرجات من 120 إلى مقياس من واحد إلى ستة. كما تغيّرت أنواع الأسئلة تغيّراً كاملاً، وحُذفت مهامّ الكتابة المدمجة التي كانت تميّز الاختبار لعشرين سنة. ومعنى ذلك أن أكثر كتب التحضير المتداولة اليوم، بل التي ما زالت تُباع، تشرح اختباراً لم يعد موجوداً. هذه الدورة تعلّمك الأنواع الثلاثة عشر التي يحتويها الاختبار فعلاً. الدروس الخمسة الأولى مجانية، وتبدأ بالشرح بالعربية للمستويات المبتدئة ثم تنتقل تدريجياً إلى الإنجليزية.
TOEFL iBT Preparation is an online course for the TOEFL as it was rebuilt in January 2026: about two hours, adaptive reading and listening, a 1 to 6 band scale, and task types including Complete the Words, Listen and Repeat, Take an Interview, Build a Sentence and Write for an Academic Discussion.
A course for the TOEFL iBT as it was rebuilt in January 2026: about two hours, adaptive reading and listening, a 1 to 6 band scale, and thirteen task types that did not exist before. Most preparation material still teaches the old three-hour test with integrated writing. Fifteen modules covering every current task type, ending with a task-by-task readiness audit.
2 hours reading + 4 hours of mock exams
What you'll be able to do
- Recognise the thirteen task types the current test actually contains
- Avoid preparing for integrated writing and other tasks the test no longer includes
- Understand the 1 to 6 band scale, and check which scale your university still asks for
- Approach an adaptive section without letting early items cost you later ones
- Handle Complete the Words and Build a Sentence, which reward accuracy rather than expression
- Produce a Listen and Repeat response and an interview answer under a recording timer
- Write an email in the right register, and a contribution to an academic discussion
- Audit your own readiness task type by task type rather than section by section
Modules in this course
TOEFL was rebuilt in January 2026. The scale changed, the sections adapt, and the task types were replaced, so material written for the old test prepares you for questions you will never see.
9 min read
The writing section opens with Build a Sentence, a task that tests sentence structure directly. Two habits carried over from Arabic cost marks there, and again in every other productive task.
9 min read
Nearly every task in the current test is short and timed tightly. Tense choice has to be automatic, and one principle decides most of it.
9 min read
Complete the Words rewards spelling and word knowledge directly, with no context to reason from. That changes what vocabulary study should look like.
8 min read
About 30 minutes and roughly 50 items across Complete the Words, Read in Daily Life and Read an Academic Passage. Only the last resembles the reading most candidates practise.
9 min read
Reading and Listening adjust to your performance. ETS does not publish the mechanism, so this module separates what is known from what is guessed, and draws only the conclusions that hold either way.
8 min read
About 29 minutes and roughly 47 items. The range is unusually wide, from choosing one spoken response to following an academic talk.
9 min read
Half the listening tasks are set in daily life rather than a lecture hall, which changes both the vocabulary and the kind of detail that gets lost.
8 min read
A task with no content to invent and nowhere to hide. It measures whether you can hold an English sentence in memory and reproduce it accurately aloud.
8 min read
Recorded answers to interview questions, with no examiner to react to you. Short, natural, complete answers score better than rehearsed speeches.
9 min read
Ten items in roughly seven minutes, testing sentence structure with no context to reason from. The most trainable task in the writing section.
8 min read
About seven minutes for a task no other major English exam contains. It is judged on whether the email does its job, not on how impressive the English is.
8 min read
Roughly ten minutes to add a contribution to an online class discussion. The task rewards taking a position and engaging with what classmates already said.
9 min read
About two hours, thirteen task types, and several sections where a single lost minute is a meaningful fraction of the time available.
8 min read
Which of the thirteen task types actually move in a fortnight, and the administrative detail that can stop you sitting the test at all.
8 min read
Attempt every current task type under timing, band each one, and produce a ranked list of which tasks are costing you the most, since the test is now many short tasks rather than four long ones.
