Magoosh provides great lessons and challenging questions that are very close to the actual test! The mobile apps helped me practice on the go. They respond to queries within a day and were even kind enough to give me a one week extension on my account.

The ETS TOEFL is exactly the same as the Magoosh practice tests!Magoosh provided me with the best and most affordable means of learning TOEFL.The TOEFL exam was a breeze for me after practising the Magoosh practice questions. Since I'm a working professional,I could spare hardly 1 hour daily but this meagre amount of time was enough for me to prepare well with the help of Magoosh study material.Thank you so much Magoosh :)

How did Magoosh help you?
In every possible way!! :)
I had just 10 days to prepare for the TOEFL and following the Magoosh two-week study schedule was helpful. The video lessons on speaking and writing tasks provide excellent tips on how to structure ones response. Also, the tips and strategies for the reading and listening section (esp. taking notes) are extremely useful on test day.

I strongly believe that you need nothing but magoosh for Toefl.It has enough material to get you your desired score. I had only a month to prepare before my test. The video explanations and practice questions are enough to give you an idea what you would actually see in the test.

The most useful tips given in your tutorial videos, for both reading and listening sections, were: how to recognize the specific type of questions and approach how to solve each of them and following these tips I had enough time to answer every question and even saved some extra time for reviewing answers in reading section. For speaking and writing section, what good answer/essay should or should't include had been the best piece of advice that I recalled during mentioned test sections and successfully implemented in my answers and essays.
Thank you very much :)

How did Magoosh help you?
Magoosh improved my reading skills such as skimming and scanning. In addition, I was able to use Magoosh's templates for the speaking and the writing sections on the actual test day. Moreover, Magoosh's preparation material taught me how to listen and take notes in an effective way without loosing track of what the listening recording is about. On the test day, I was familiar with all of the questions's formats and that helped boosting my confidence. Thank you Magoosh's team for your hard work and dedication. You guys definitely made this a great experience.
