How did Magoosh help you?
Magoosh helped me in familiarizing myself with the way the test is being administered. With that, I was able to focus more on the content rather than the format which made the test much easier than expected. |

Basically Magoosh helped me with everything because I only studied via Magoosh course and ETS book (as recommended) for 2 weeks. In general I think I did great and I'm satisfied with my scores. So, thank you Magoosh!! |

How did Magoosh help you?
I'd never studied English until 1,5 years ago when I realized how important is that skill in a workplace. When targeting a graduation american program, Magoosh is a tremendous help of passing both the TOEFL and the GMAT for me. Thanks guys for all the hard work and efforts you've put to make Magoosh one of the best! And Lucas, thank you for the lessons and explanations. Not only did they fix my eyes on the weaknesses, but also they were a good remedy for watching my pronunciation since yours is almost the perfect one. I'd stop the video and repeat after you, which had helped me to score more on the Speaking and kind of narrowed down hundreds of other sources with american pronunciation. Looking forward for the GMAT course. |

I mainly needed help with the speaking section. The speaking task I practised on Magoosh were really important to my prep. The grading was prompt and the graders were very polite and competent, ready to provide detailed answers if I requested. As someone who has worked in the services industry, I find the quality of service to be truly phenomenal. |

How did Magoosh help you?
Magoosh helped me to understand better little details about the exam, therefore I put more attention to things I didn't the first time I took the toefl. While studying for the toefl is almost impossible to learn more english than you already know, practice is essential to get a good score and Magoosh is a great tool to do so. |

How did Magoosh help you?
Im a foreign Pharmacy graduate and I needed certain scores on each section in order to get my certificate and qualify for the pharmacy licensure exam. I know I have high understanding of English, however, the speaking section got me. I tried other reviews online and paid so much just to be stuck with 23 on speaking until I found Magoosh. It gave me a plan on how to knock this speaking part down. I love their very informative lectures. They have a lot of practice exams. Also, my favorite part is that ypi can ask them to score and have a detailed feedback on your practices. It's like having a private tutor but paying for a lot less. I'm glad I have found Magoosh. They have all the materials and people that I needed. Thank you Magoosh! You helped me reached my goal! |

How did Magoosh help you?
Magoosh made learning fun, rather than boring. The guides/teachers, the support team, and even the layout and display of Magoosh webpages made me feel I was in a friendly and warm atmosphere and my learning was an interesting and fun-filled journey, rather than some boring lectures. (I wrote a thank you note after completing my TOEFL test on 7th May and I am going to state similar thing here.) First, I want to thank Lucas Fink for those great video lessons, and video and text explanations of practice questions. I don't think there can be any other videos even close to Lucas' videos. He is one of the best teacher I have come across and I am thankful that I became one of his students. Chris' grammar lessons were awesome. As a non-native speaker, I had many questions regarding usage of various grammatical topics, and he solved those questions with 10-15 minutes videos. Besides, he made it look very simple. Finally, I thank the support team who answered my questions. Once again, thank you everyone, and my decision to study with Magoosh has become one of the right decision I have ever taken. Thank you for giving such a great experience and making learning so much fun and exciting which helped me score 104 in my first attempt to TOEFL with only 21 days preparation. |

Magoosh helped me to get used to the TOEFL format and provided more than enough practice questions. Since I did not have much time and was not really willing to sit for a 3-4 hour mock test, I really enjoyed doing your practice questions whenever I got the time to do some. |

How did Magoosh help you?
Thanks to the lessons offered on Magoosh, I was able to learn the test´s structure and also practice listening and reading sections, in order to have an idea of what could appear on the real test. After I saw the videos, I took an ets practice test a week before my real test and I got an 88. During that remaining week, I practiced the sections where I had failed, and on my real test, i got a 98!! An improvement of 10 overall points. That improvement was largely because of those final 7 days of practice with the Magoosh Platform. Thanks to Magoosh I reached my score goal and I am able to apply to the scholarship programs and desired universities on the US. Congratulations to the complete Magoosh team, because that achievement is not only mine, is yours too because of your outstanding custom service and your excellent online material. |
