| ESL XTOWL - iBT TOEFL Prep: Writing (6) |
|
This class will provide practice with the two kinds of
writing required on the iBT TOEFL. The first writing task
asks students to respond to a question using personal
knowledge and experience. In the second task students will
be asked to read an academic passage and listen to a
lecture. They will then be asked to answer a question
discussing the key points in the lecture and explain how
these points relate to the information in the reading
passage. Students will learn the characteristics of good
writing organization, including thesis statements, topic
sentences, body paragraphs, introductions, and conclusions.
Students will also practice note-taking while listening to
short sample academic lectures. Additional topics will
cover how the test is scored and writing strategies to make
a good impression on the reader. Proficiency Level: High
