Friends and Family Recommend Connect English

Students are telling their friends and family to join the educational experience so that they can grow together.

When people find something good, something that helps them a lot, they tell their friends and family to try it. They want the people that they care about to enjoy the things that will help them grow stronger and be more satisfied in life. Connect English is one of the things that friends recommend to friends, brothers recommend to sisters, and girlfriends recommend to boyfriends. Motivated and intelligent students know that friends and family should go to the best English school in San Diego. This is why so many Connect English students recommend our programs to the important people in their lives.



George Hong started his advanced English courses at Connect English two months ago, after he moved to San Diego from Northern California. He enjoyed the courses so much that he signed up his brother, Chang Yong, for beginner English courses at Connect English. Chang Yong started his classes this week and is already using his English skills to meet students and new friends from places like Turkey, Brazil, Saudi Arabia, Vietnam, Spain, Syria and Mexico who are in his classes at Connect English.

Iman Aldrwich joined Connect English in May of 2010 because she wanted to study TOEFL in San Diego. For six months she has attended class almost every day and participated eagerly. She has now passed the TOEFL and been accepted to San Diego Mesa College for their spring 2011 semester, but she has chosen to continue to study with Connect English because she has improved her English skills so much this year. After four months of studying with Connect English, Iman brought her sister, Najwa, to Connect English to help her gain essential communication skills. In her two months at Connect English, Najwa has improved her conversational English and made new friends at Connect English that she spends time with on the weekends.

Gokhan Caglayan has been studying at Connect English since the spring of 2010. He is in the TOEFL MAX classes in the morning preparing to pass the TOEFL and go to a university in the USA. He has recently referred three of his friends to Connect English so that they can get the excellent lessons that he knows from our experienced and energetic instructors that he trusts. He wanted to be sure that his friends attend a school that is not just some boring classes, and he also wanted his friends to enjoy the entire experience of living in San Diego and learning English at a school that cares about offering more to students. That is why he chose Connect English. Last week, Gokhan's friends enjoyed a Thanksgiving dinner at Connect English, and two weeks ago, they played soccer in Balboa Park with other Connect English students from around the world.

Fuad Rahimov, from Azerbaijan, recently applied for Change of Status at Connect English. He will change to an F-1 (student) visa from his J-1 (work/study) visa. He is so excited about his experience with Connect English so far that he has recommended our English programs to his friend Ali back in his home country. Ali is coming to the USA at the end of December and will study in our English MAX programs for the rest of 2011. He received an I-20 from Connect English, scheduled a visa appointment with the US Consulate in Azerbaijan, and received the F-1 student visa. We are ready to welcome Ali into Connect English programs thanks to his friend Fuad's recommendation.

So...

The TOEFL iBT Advantage: Why Connect English Is Better, Part 1

How can you help yourself pass the TOEFL? Join the best TOEFL program in San Diego.

[View other parts of this series: part 2]

If you are studying at a language school in San Diego, then you have probably heard about TOEFL classes. Students can get TOEFL training from a number of schools in San Diego, but are TOEFL programs always good? Are they always worth all of the money you have to spend for them? Do you have to spend a lot of money on TOEFL preparation classes? Are the teachers good enough? Will you really learn enough to pass the TOEFL and get into the university that you want?

Connect English TOEFL courses do more for you. Keep reading to see the difference between the basic classes taught by old-fashioned teachers at other schools, and the modern, proven methods that Connect English can offer to you. Here’s part 1 of the four-part series about the Connect English TOEFL advantage:

TOEFL Speaking

The best way to succeed with TOEFL Speaking is to learn to be confident. Imagine that you are sitting down for the TOEFL Speaking test and you have NO IDEA what kind of questions you will answer, and no idea how to organize a good response. Now imagine instead that you are arriving at the test with a complete understanding of each question that you will be asked, and a plan of how you can answer each different question on the test. At Connect English, students learn and practice every detail of the entire TOEFL Speaking test, including individual strategies for each of the questions.

If you are uncertain about how well you understand the TOEFL Speaking test, think about and answer these questions:

• How many questions on the test require you to give your own opinion? Which ones are they?



• Which questions on the test involve listening to academic lectures?



• Which questions give you the most preparation time, and which questions give you the least preparation time?



• What are the similarities between question 3 and question 4 on the speaking test? What are the differences between these questions?

Knowing the answers to these questions before you sit down to take your TOEFL means the difference between being afraid and being confident, and between being disorganized and being ready.

How about strategies? Do you have a plan for how to answer each different question? Let’s look at question number one, for example. How should you use your preparation time? How should you begin your response? How many reasons should you plan to use in support? What should you do if you have extra time at the end of your recording period?

All of these questions are the things that Connect English will teach you the answers to in our TOEFL MAX programs. If you are at an English school in San Diego, but you want to get effective TOEFL training that makes a difference, contact Connect English about the best TOEFL courses in San Diego.

Our TOEFL programs work. See the evidence.
