Building Skills for the TOEFL® iBT is the first step in a graded test preparation course designed to hone the test-taking skills required of students who will take the TOEFL® iBT administered by ETS. In addition to familiarizing students with innovative question types found on the TOEFL® iBT, this course provides tips and strategies for each of the four skill-based test sections: reading, listening, speaking, and writing.

Schools in 45 states now administer annual standardized tests, designed to gauge children's proficiency in reading, and, in many cases, to determine who gets promoted and who doesn't. These latest volumes in the critically-acclaimed Get Ready For Standardized Tests series arm parents with proven tools and techniques to help assess their children's basic reading skill levels; pinpoint their specific problem areas; reinforce their proficiency; gauge their progress; and instill them with the confidence and test-taking know-how needed to shine on virtually any standardized test.

One of the areas of study students find most difficult to master--and are most fearful of--is math. Yet the core math skills acquired in the first four years of school form the basis of all future academic success. Get Ready for Standardized Tests, the first and only grade-specific test prep series, now features hands-on guidance on helping kids master the all-important basic math skills while arming parents with the tools they need to help their children succeed.
