The PELT course provides 130 hours of tuition and 40 hours of DVD instruction from world-renowned teacher trainers, including Dave Hopkins, Jack C Richards, Scott Thornbury etc..
Online help to cope with TOEFL changes
新托福口语考试备考软件将登陆中国
ACT360 Solutions Ltd, Canada's leading provider of e-learning infrastructure and knowledge management solutions, is taking its online test-preparation software to China. It hopes to tap a growing number of students there and around the world who are bracing for dramatic changes to TOEFL. Soon the TOEFL will include a new, oral component and be much harder to ace. The company is currently testing a programme designed to simulate the oral component of the next-generation TOEFL. It hopes to launch in late summer.
