This optional course (not included in the regular program) meets for five hours a week for seven weeks. It is designed to develop skills for the TOEFL examination. The objectives of the course include:

• Familiarizing the students with the format and directions of the test;
• Familiarizing them with the types of questions that are asked in each section;
• Identifying the weak areas of each student; and
• Developing the English language skills that are necessary to be successful on the test.

Emphasis is placed on listening comprehension, grammar, and reading comprehension. The objectives are addressed through exercises that are designed to develop specific areas of English and test taking skills, as well as through practice TOEFL tests.

Please note that this course alone does not satisfy the requirements for meeting the hours of study required on a student visa.
