TOEFL test

For those going to do the TOEFL test, having fluency and speaking words correctly are some of the requirements for obtaining a good score on the test.

The Alumni Association offers great resources in its Audio and Com Lab for students interested in preparing for the TOEFL test.

There are CD-ROMs from many publishers, such as Longman, Kaplan, and Thomson, with the simulated tests, through which you can prepare for some of the difficulties you face, like the tension of answering the questions in the required time. You can use the TOEFL test software 5 days a week in the four Alumni units. Go for it!

PRONUNCIATION

Saying the words correctly and placing the right intonation is important to communicate without misunderstandings and without making a fool of yourself. This requires practice.

In the Alumni Learning Centers students find pronunciation materials from basic to advanced levels. The Audio Lab Program was especially designed for lower levels, while Pronunciation Practice is geared towards students from Level 5 and up who want to work on specific sounds and suprasegmental features. Com Lab materials include Pronunciation Power and English Plus Millennium.

There's no excuse not to use these resources! The labs are open from early morning to late evening, in all the branches. All you have to do is ask the attendant for the materials suitable for your level.
