What is the TOEIC?

TOEIC stands for Test of English for International Communication. It is often used by organizations to test the ability of their employees to understand written and spoken English. There is also an internet-based test that checks speaking and writing ability, but seems to be used less frequently.

It is possible for someone with a high TOEIC score to not feel confident about the ability to communicate well verbally because they have focused on preparing for the TOEIC Listening and Reading test. While some companies require that their employees test at a certain level, it is also important to practice speaking and writing in English to be understood by coworkers and customers. Word processing often has suggestions to autocomplete sentences, but the user ultimately has to know whether these suggestions make sense for their particular situation. There is no substitute for being able to speak in the language of your coworkers or clients as using an interpreter or electronic tool is not always feasible and interrupts the flow of natural conversation.

If you are interested in preparing for the TOEIC Listening and Reading Test, Midwest Language Services, LLC can help by providing online coaching on using tactics to help you before you take the test. Even people who have taken the test before can benefit from this.
