TOEFL Writing Tip

The TOEFL Independent essay forces TOEFL students to come up with specific examples to support your personal examples.

This TOEFL Writing tips video explains a small part of the essay.

Some basic notes to go along with the video.

Two tips : 

Professional Examples/ Academic Example- TOEFL revolves around academic work. So, it is best to speak the test graders' language. Try to come up with these kinds of examples whenever possible
                  
True: Try to come up with a true example if you can. But, if you are good at making up a story, don't be afraid to do so.

How to learn to come up with example:

Take a TOEFL example question:

People attend college or university for many reasons. (for example: new experience, career preparation, etc.) Why do you think people attend university?

Your job: Come up with two keywords.

Example:  Social experience: make friends, personal experience
                  Career: Connections , learned how to teach
