ESLXTOWL [at Georgia Tech]

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 Intermediate to Advanced
