What is TOEFL and Why is it Important?
The TOEFL (Test of English as a Foreign Language) is a standardized test that measures the English language proficiency of non-native speakers, especially for academic settings. Accepted by over 11,000 universities and institutions worldwide, it assesses reading, listening, speaking, and writing skills. Students take the TOEFL to demonstrate their readiness for studying in English-speaking countries, particularly in the U.S., Canada, and parts of Europe and Asia.
