Class Experience

US Grade 9 - 12
Since 1964 the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) has been a rite of passage for millions of international students and professionals hoping to study or work in the United States.  Even if they’ve studied English for years, most students find the test difficult and even frustrating. But how does it really work and what does it take to succeed?  This course provides detailed instruction on writing essays for the TOEFL writing section and gives students the practice, advice, feedback and resources they’ll need.  Join me, Teacher Peter, an experienced TOEFL rater and ESL teacher, to learn how to achieve your best TOEFL writing score.

Profile
Teacher expertise and credentials
Bachelor's Degree in English Language and Literature from Dickinson College
A native English speaker with a degree in English and Political Science and two TEFL certificates, I've been teaching English to beginning and advanced students since 2012.  I also score the speaking sections of the TOEFL iBT, TOEIC, and the new TOEFL Essentials exams and have prepared many students to take the TOEFL as well as other international English exams.  

I've taught thousands of hours of English to more than one hundred students over the past 11 years and consider myself an expert in the field.  Some of my students have been with me for over seven years and have become like family.  I enjoy watching their development and helping them achieve their goals.
