Score 100+ in Reading, Listening, Speaking & Writing | Fun, Fast & Proven TOEFL iBT Tactics, Templates & Secrets

Created by: Maria Guryeva

Last updated May 2025

Our take

Based on the ratings of 8,814 students, a sample of their written reviews and the syllabus, as the course stood in May 2025. No course pays to be reviewed.

Maria Guryeva runs a U.S. admissions consulting firm, and the course reads that way. It is a strategy course, not an English class. Across 89 lectures and about 10 hours, it covers the test format, then Reading, Listening, Speaking and Writing, with word-for-word templates for the two productive sections. Speaking and Writing take up well over half the runtime, which suits people who freeze on those tasks. The course asks for at least B1 English, and reviewers who came in with no idea how the exam works say it explains the basics well.

Students like her pace and energy. Reviewers call the explanations simple, the tips real, and the listening practice generous. One says the lectures are entertaining and notes you can speed them up if she sounds slow. The complaints are consistent too. Some lectures repeat themselves, one reviewer found her pronunciation and phrasing odd, and another wanted more exercises because a few topics have none. Older reviews say the course trailed behind format changes, and a 2026 reviewer wishes it matched the newest exam. One student finished it and still scored 70, so the templates are not magic.

Nearly nine in ten ratings are four or five stars, so the sample is friendly. The course was last updated in May 2025, so check the current test format before paying. For a first pass at strategy it is a sensible pick. Anyone already scoring in the 90s who needs hard practice tests will want separate materials, since the course includes only two practice tests.

Best forTest takers at B1 English or above who want memorizable Speaking and Writing templates and a fast tour of every section.
Skip it ifYou need material for the newest 2026 TOEFL format, or want a big bank of full-length practice tests.

Pros

  • Word-for-word Speaking and Writing templates, with 56 lectures given to those two sections
  • Upbeat, well-paced teaching that reviewers find entertaining and easy to follow
  • Quick reading tricks, like skimming the first sentence of each paragraph, that are easy to apply
  • Reviewers mention plenty of listening practice plus 12 quizzes along the way

Cons

  • Some lectures repeat themselves, so it runs longer than it needs to
  • Reviewers say it lags behind the newest TOEFL iBT format changes
  • Only two practice tests, and some topics have no exercises at all
I think this is a very good course and even though some people say that there has been changes in the format/structure of the test, this gives a very good idea on what is the test about, the tips and tricks and how to succeed.
Cristina Elizondo Ramos, a student

Listed for all levels, but it asks for B1 English, so true beginners will struggle to follow the lessons.

I think this is a very good course and even though some people say that there has been changes in the format/structure of the test, this gives a very good idea on what is the test about, the tips and tricks and how to succeed. I think the only thing I would recommend is to make it more concise because there were some lectures that were very repetitive, but apart from that I believe this is a very good course, thank you very much!!

By Gözde Demircan Tepe on 2/27/2021

It's an amazing course! Lots of hints, tricks and strategies. However, it needs to be updated concerning the recent changes in TOEFL 2019 and the emergence of TOEFL Special Home Edition due to Covid-19 Pandemic. Especially reductions in the number of tasks in the speaking section must be taken into consideration in order to update this course.
