Hi Jasmine! Thanks for your comment! I was frustrated after getting 3 points in reading, but I believe I could make it. I kept practicing and summarized many tips & strategies at the same time.

Hi Monika. Thank you for your comment. I'm making videos about English books and animation.Taking TOEFL is only the first step. I'm sure mastering English is our final goal. Thank you for your support!
I’m glad to hear that you improved tremendously. I don’t know if it’s a problem with my work ethic of intelligence. But I’ve taken the TOEFL on three occasions. Each time I didn’t get the score I wanted. I got my reading and listening scores today. R-15, L-17. I got a 23 last time. Truly if the TOEFL was simply an assessment of your language abilities why does it cover stuff that have high correlation with test taking such as multiple choice. Wouldn’t strategy be secondary and the language skills that comes to itself. Perhaps I’m ignorant. I’m sorry for been moody, I just disappointed my parents. But worse of all myself.
Hi Prime Bill Gates I feel you. I was very frustrated when preparing for TOEFL. Be confident in yourself and keep practicing. I feel that there are patterns in TOEFL. It would be better to watch my videos and figure out the patterns :)

I don't believe that you got 3 points out of 30 points. Even if you choose answers randomly you could get more :) And you can not improve your english from 3 to 27. But thanks for advices!
Hi Kendal. Thank you for your comment. On my first mock exam, I was reading the second passage, so I didn't even know the time was out. This was one of the main reasons that I got a 3. Like you said, it's a good strategy to make random guesses if you don't know the answer. I wish I could have known it at that time. I believe reading can be improved in a short time. At the beginning, I practiced on each type of reading questions. Then I practiced on mock exams and pushed myself to finish in time. I kept doing at lease 3-4 reading passages everyday before the test. YES we are able to improve our English from 3-27. Keep confident and keep practicing! Let me know if you have any questions.

@@sukanyagattineni1964 Thank you for your comment. First, try to do some reading practice to know your weaknesses in reading. I recommend using a book called LongMan Preparation Course.

I'll make those videos as soon as possible. Good luck for your test!

Hi Eros Thanks for your comment. Please check out the playlist "TOEFL Reading". I already updated many tips for some questions types. Hope this helps. Good luck!
hello Carrie, thank you for sharing this. I enjoyed watching your video. I heard that to improve the reading score that Toefl takers should read a lot about topics such science, social sciences, etc. Did you do the same? if yes could you recommend some interesting books to use. Thank you in advance
Hi Adama! Thank you for your comment. I didn't have much time for TOEFL preparation, so I only practiced on reading by doing TOEFL practices. There are strategies for each type of questions. Reading a lot could also improve your reading skills, but no need to confine yourself on TOEFL topics. Fiction is a good choice. If you'd like me to recommend materials on science, I would recommend National Geographic magazine. Hope these will be helpful to you. Thank you!
@@CarrieJi Recieved the score today: 109. It's enough for my undergraduate degree but I would have prefered to come above 110... Unfortunately, I had 4 texts and they were all so fucking difficult lmao, scored only 26 in reading. But well, I am still happy with my score :))
Hi Jan. Congratulations! You're amazing. I'm happy that you shared this good news with me. I got 4 passages too. Would you like to share your tips and strategies with my audience?

I am preparing for the exams and I am running out of time in the reading section :( (especially when I take notes for positive/negative questions for ex but I find it useful), what would be your advice to manage my time well ? thxxx

Hi Thurein I'd recommend the book called Longman course Preparation for TOEFL. It sorts out each type of questions in reading so you can practice the same type of questions at the beginning. This helped me improve my reading score a lot. Longman also sorts out the same question types in other sections. You don't need to read the whole book. Just practice on problems. Hope this helps. Feel free to leave me comments here if you have any questions!

@@CarrieJi Hi. Does this study material "LongMan Preparation course" which you have recommended has a mock of a real test i.e reading, listening, speaking and writing?
@@nathanaellutevele Hi Nathan Yes there are mini tests and mock exams. What I like the most is it sorts out the same type of questions for each part. It's great to practice the same type of questions in the beginning. You can try to find it in libraries to save money. When are you going to take TOEFL? Good luck!
@@CarrieJiThank you. I just want to take my test in the end of next month (June). I am in a frech province (Quebec), so I don't know if I can get the book on libraries. By the way, if it is a hard copy how can I get into the listening part or speaking part? I thought the book has a soft copy version so I can play audios.
@@nathanaellutevele There is still a month. How many scores would you like to get? There's a link for audios online wps.pearsonlongman.com/toefl/246/62979/16122669.cw/index.html But this is only for the book of version 3
Hello Carrie, how are you. Do you know how can I get an Official TOEFL Certificate to send it to the University (Besides the option "send score reports ")
Hi Felipe. Thank you for your comment. I believe "send score reports" is the option if you require it after test. Usually, ETS sends digital copies to universities. If you choose to send by fax or mail, you need to fill out the form. You can check out this website for detailed information. www.ets.org/toefl/test-takers/ibt/scores/sending
Hi Carrie, thank you very much for your video! I am currently preparing for the exam and I keep getting half of the questions wrong on the Reading section:( I think I don't have enough mock tests to improve my score.

And also, could you share how long did it take you to prepare for the exam, in particular for the Reading section(after how much time of practiving did your score improved)?

@@CarrieJi Hey Carrie. Yes I have about one month and a half. I've started practicing some tests and I score 15/30 and sometimes 16/30 provided that I haven't prepared anything yet.
@@douniabeauty5397 Hey Dounia! If you think it's about time and reading speed, I suggest you practice more on reading skills. Don't spend time on memorizing vocabulary. Only check the words related to questions and answers. Like I said in the video, time yourself or even give you less time to finish the problems. I have gotten feedback from others telling me this strategy works. Besides, you need to be familiar with the strategies for each question type. Check out my other videos, and practice on the same type of questions once. Keep practicing for one or two weeks, and tell me how it goes! Hope this helps!
Thanks for the info!! in my last complete practice exam i got 9 corrects in reading! and in 11 days i am going to do the toefl test aaah help mee!! pleasee how can i improve in just few days??
@@nataliamarroquin3286 Hi Natalia. There are sill 11 days. What you can do is to get familiar with each type of reading questions and their tips in 3-4 days. Then start to do the reading practice under a time limit for the rest of the days before you take the exam. Making a plan is really important. Also, how about postponing the exam if you can so that you have more time to prepare for the other parts? Hope this helps. Good luck!
@@CarrieJi oh that's the problem as well, I am familiar with the types of questions, maybe if I practice more so could I at least get 21?? Bc postponing the exam cost another payment and I cannot do it:(
@@nataliamarroquin3286 Yeah practice more to see how you perform under the time limit and you will find out your strengths and weaknesses for reading. Try your best to finish in time. You'll make it! Good luck!

@@ixkauzo5032 First, getting familiar with all reading questions types and the strategies will help you answer questions fast. Then it's about your reading speed. Don't stop if you encounter words that you don't know. You can guess the meanings from the context. Try to skim and grab keywords from each sentences to get information. You can use a pen to guide yourself. The more that you practice, the faster your reading speed you will be. I try to make a video to explain this. Hope this helps.

@@CarrieJi You are really so helpful. ❤️ Thanks a lot.🙏
I'm from Bangladesh ❤️
@@paramamitu9836 No problem Parama! Feel free to ask me questions here. I'll try my best to answer! One of my professors is also from India. He told me that he took TOEFL many years ago and went to America for study. When are going to take toefl?
@@CarrieJiI just completed my bachelor degree in mathematics. I am preparing from last two weeks. I want to attend the exam after one month.
My English level is not good enough 😅
But I wanna go USA for Higher study.
The links you have given are written in another language, which I do not understand.
Please tell me can i get this in English version? 😊
@@paramamitu9836 Yess this is because another English tpo exam website was closed, so I suggest these two Chinese websites. The tpos are in English, but the websites are in Chinese. You can use Google translate to guide yourself to log in, and practice only on the tpos.
My professor has stayed in America for about 10 years. He likes here. This is the beginning of your new journey too! You still have one month, so keep practicing. And I'm sure you can make it!
Hi Carrie! thank you very much for your helpful video, I really enjoyed watching it and i learned a lot. please can you provide me with the books for reading section strategies. thank you!
Hi Dema. Thank you for your comment. I used Longman Preparation Course for the TOEFL iBT Test with Answer Key 3rd Edition: www.amazon.com/Longman-Preparation-Course-TOEFL-Answer/dp/0133248127/ref=sr_1_3?crid=154KPSM1YPYW7&dchild=1& You can check out my playlist TOEFL Reading for more tips and strategies.

Thank you for your Channel….
Can you please highlight what are the different question types for which we should look at all the options available???
Please check my other videos about reading. I organized and summarized tips and strategies for each type of question in reading. Hope they help. Thanks
can you tell me strategies?
Thank you for your comment! Sure! I'm making a new video about strategies for each type of reading questions. Stay tuned! Please share my videos and subscribe to my channel to help me make English learning available to everyone! Thank you!
@@CarrieJi I am going give text within 2 weeks
@@sukanyagattineni1964 Thank you for your comment. First, try to do some reading practice to know your weaknesses in reading. I recommend using a book called LongMan Preparation Course. It organizes and sorts out the same type of reading questions. Or you can use ZabanExam or TOEFLBank, but they don't organize questions for you. Then tell me your weaknesses. I'll make those videos as soon as possible. Good luck for your test!
@@CarrieJi Longman preparation which edition do you suggest?do you think second edition will work or bye the latest edition?

I don't know how the second edition is different from the third edition. But I used the third edition and it's super helpful. You can try borrowing it from your local library or you can buy it from Amazon: amzn.to/3hw34Aw

Hi Eros Thanks for your comment. Please check out the playlist "TOEFL Reading". I already updated many tips for some questions types. Hope this helps. Good luck!
hello Carrie, thank you for sharing this. I enjoyed watching your video. I heard that to improve the reading score that Toefl takers should read a lot about topics such science, social sciences, etc. Did you do the same? if yes could you recommend some interesting books to use. Thank you in advance
Hi Adama! Thank you for your comment. I didn't have much time for TOEFL preparation, so I only practiced on reading by doing TOEFL practices. There are strategies for each type of questions. Reading a lot could also improve your reading skills, but no need to confine yourself on TOEFL topics. Fiction is a good choice. If you'd like me to recommend materials on science, I would recommend National Geographic magazine. Hope these will be helpful to you. Thank you!
@@CarrieJi okay thank you so much ☺️

Hello Sir. May I know the books which you would like to recommend for reading session to improve reading skills and to get high scores in reading?
Hi Thurein I'd recommend the book called Longman course Preparation for TOEFL. It sorts out each type of questions in reading so you can practice the same type of questions at the beginning. This helped me improve my reading score a lot. Longman also sorts out the same question types in other sections. You don't need to read the whole book. Just practice on problems. Hope this helps. Feel free to leave me comments here if you have any questions!
Hi, Carrie ! Could you recommend any books for improving a reading comprehension ?

@@CarrieJi Hi. Does this study material "LongMan Preparation course" which you have recommended has a mock of a real test i.e reading, listening, speaking and writing?
@@nathanaellutevele Hi Nathan Yes there are mini tests and mock exams. What I like the most is it sorts out the same type of questions for each part. It's great to practice the same type of questions in the beginning. You can try to find it in libraries to save money. When are you going to take TOEFL? Good luck!
@@CarrieJiThank you. I just want to take my test in the end of next month (June). I am in a frech province (Quebec), so I don't know if I can get the book on libraries. By the way, if it is a hard copy how can I get into the listening part or speaking part? I thought the book has a soft copy version so I can play audios.
@@nathanaellutevele There is still a month. How many scores would you like to get? There's a link for audios online wps.pearsonlongman.com/toefl/246/62979/16122669.cw/index.html But this is only for the book of version 3
Hello Carrie, how are you. Do you know how can I get an Official TOEFL Certificate to send it to the University (Besides the option "send score reports ")
Hi Felipe. Thank you for your comment. I believe "send score reports" is the option if you require it after test. Usually, ETS sends digital copies to universities. If you choose to send by fax or mail, you need to fill out the form. You can check out this website for detailed information. www.ets.org/toefl/test-takers/ibt/scores/sending
really only 4 passages, i think my exam had like 6 TT
Hi August! Yeah I feel you! I often thought I needed a whole day to finish them Lol Don't worry! One passage doesn't count for your score!
Hi Carrie, thank you very much for your video! I am currently preparing for the exam and I keep getting half of the questions wrong on the Reading section:( I think I don't have enough mock tests to improve my score. Could you, please, share some links to do the mock tests? And also, could you share how long did it take you to prepare for the exam, in particular for the Reading section(after how much time of practiving did your score improved)?
Hi Mavjuda! Thank you for your comment. TOEFLBank and Zabanexam are free TPO websites. Please check this video th-cam.com/video/164w682Altw/w-d-xo.html for more details.

Hello Carrie
I am wondering is one month okey if we want to get 25+
Hi Tamana. I would suggest you take a mock exam first. Then you will know how far you're away from your goal. I prefer to prepare in advance since we need to pay for the test :)
@@CarrieJi thank you for responding
I will do that
@@tamanasamim210 No problem! Feel free to ask me if you have any questions. Please share my videos to help more people :)
How can I improve my reading please. Do you I need to cram for vocabulary or only work on reading strategies. I really can't read fast😔
Hi Dounia Thank you for your comment. Before answering for your questions, I'd like to ask if you have plenty time, can you answer most of the questions correctly?
@@CarrieJi Hey Carrie. Yes I have about one month and a half. I've started practicing some tests and I score 15/30 and sometimes 16/30 provided that I haven't prepared anything yet.
@@douniabeauty5397 Hey Dounia! If you think it's about time and reading speed, I suggest you practice more on reading skills. Don't spend time on memorizing vocabulary. Only check the words related to questions and answers. Like I said in the video, time yourself or even give you less time to finish the problems. I have gotten feedback from others telling me this strategy works. Besides, you need to be familiar with the strategies for each question type. Check out my other videos, and practice on the same type of questions once. Keep practicing for one or two weeks, and tell me how it goes! Hope this helps!
Thank you so much

Thanks for the info!! in my last complete practice exam i got 9 corrects in reading! and in 11 days i am going to do the toefl test aaah help mee!! pleasee how can i improve in just few days??
What's your ideal score in reading?
@@CarrieJi at least 23 or 24 the minimum
@@nataliamarroquin3286 Hi Natalia. There are sill 11 days. What you can do is to get familiar with each type of reading questions and their tips in 3-4 days. Then start to do the reading practice under a time limit for the rest of the days before you take the exam. Making a plan is really important. Also, how about postponing the exam if you can so that you have more time to prepare for the other parts? Hope this helps. Good luck!
@@CarrieJi oh that's the problem as well, I am familiar with the types of questions, maybe if I practice more so could I at least get 21?? Bc postponing the exam cost another payment and I cannot do it:(
@@nataliamarroquin3286 Yeah practice more to see how you perform under the time limit and you will find out your strengths and weaknesses for reading. Try your best to finish in time. You'll make it! Good luck!
Can you share the info of books for vocabulary or same meaning questions
Hi Satya. Thank you for your comment. I recommend a book called LongMan Preparation Course. It organizes and sorts out the same type of reading questions. Practicing on the same type of questions improves your skills on solving problems. Or you can use ZabanExam or TOEFLBank, but they don't organize questions for you. I don't recommend memorizing vocabulary. Please check out this video for the reason th-cam.com/video/-z0GZ53mSws/w-d-xo.html . Hope this helps you. Thank you and good luck!
@@CarrieJi if possible can you try to make videos on other sections too.
And I have a doubt is it hard to score 90?
Hi Satya. I made a video about writing. Please check it out. th-cam.com/video/s7AOfnthLMM/w-d-xo.html I will make more videos after the final exams. I suggest taking a mock exam to see how far you are away from 90. Check this out too. th-cam.com/video/164w682Altw/w-d-xo.html These six steps guide you to get your ideal score.

@@CarrieJi yes please , cuz im having the same issue and my toefl is in the next 2 weeks
@@ixkauzo5032 First, getting familiar with all reading questions types and the strategies will help you answer questions fast. Then it's about your reading speed. Don't stop if you encounter words that you don't know. You can guess the meanings from the context. Try to skim and grab keywords from each sentences to get information. You can use a pen to guide yourself. The more that you practice, the faster your reading speed you will be. I try to make a video to explain this. Hope this helps.
