What is TOEFL?

TOEFL is a standardized English language test that measures your ability to use and understand English at the university level. It evaluates your reading, listening, speaking, and writing skills and is widely accepted in countries like the USA, Canada, Australia, and the UK.

There are two types of TOEFL tests:

  • TOEFL iBT (Internet-Based Test)
  • TOEFL Paper-Based Test (PBT) – less common

Most students in the UAE opt for the TOEFL iBT, which is conveniently available in test centers across Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, and other emirates.
