The Online TOEFL Grammar Review Course

Register in this 1-Week TOEFL Grammar Course

Course Overview

This course is one of four which constitute the comprehensive TOEFL Review Course. The Online TOEFL Grammar Review Course divides the grammar areas of TOEFL into 7 distinct units which can be studied for a single intensive one week period or as part of the full-length TOEFL course. This course provides ideal preparation for those who have isolated grammar as their weakness and want to brush up their skills quickly since they will take the real TOEFL test in about one weeks time. Those who are weak at grammar will be best served by taking this course multiple times since the breath and difficulty of the material is substantial.
