Longman Preparation Course for the TOEFL Test: Next Generation (iBT) (CD-ROM and Ebook)

TOEFL exam scores are based on the results of three sections: hearing comprehension, structure and writing expression, and reading comprehension. This test is commonly used at most colleges to assess students' English competence.

Listening is the hardest element for EFL students to complete out of the three. As a result, they must be strategic when listening to longer and more varied sections; also, they should be accustomed to listening to both dialogues and monologues on the TOEFL. When listening to monologues, the listener should "process long stretches of speech without interruption-the stream of speech will go on whether or not the hearer comprehends" and identify the 'interpersonal and transactional' features from listening to dialogues. 

Furthermore, listening to natives necessitates some strategic ways of comprehension, which many students frequently struggle with; thus, EFL teachers could facilitate and train students to cope with some learning materials, time management, media, and the gradual teaching listening should be from "basic to more complex". As a result, it is vital to carefully plan the listening activities as one progresses to more intricate operations. Using 'new tactics' can improve teaching and learning.
