A Reliable Assessment of English
The TOEFL ITP® tests are paper-based and use academic and social content to evaluate the English-language proficiency of nonnative English speakers, giving you confidence about your students' ability in a real-world academic setting.

§ Listening Comprehension measures the ability to understand spoken English as it is used in colleges and universities.
§ Structure and Written Expression measures recognition of selected structural and grammatical points in standard written English.
§ Reading Comprehension measures the ability to read and understand academic reading material in English.
