TOEFL rewards structure and time control more than charm. Your tutor works on the scoring rubric for the speaking and writing tasks — and on the clock.

Not a syllabus of grammar points. A diagnostic sequence built around the one thing costing you the result.
A timed mock of all four speaking tasks. Your tutor scores each task against the official rubric and shows you exactly where delivery, language use and topic development lose points.
Independent and integrated tasks drilled separately. Templates are earned, not memorised: you build a shape you can adapt under time pressure.
Integrated tasks with real reading–listening–speaking cycles. Note-taking is trained as a skill, because that is where integrated tasks usually fail.
A complete timed test, then a line-by-line review against the rubric with a realistic sectional range.
Filtered to tutors who specialise in this goal.
I coach the TOEFL speaking section task by task, because that is how it is scored. Delivery, language use and topic development are separate problems …
I work with students preparing for university in English — TOEFL, academic presentations, and the seminar-style speaking that nobody prepares you for.…
The marketplace is built around speaking and interview performance, and most tutors specialise there. Several tutors also coach TOEFL writing. Tell your tutor which section is your lowest score and they will tell you honestly whether they are the right fit.
It is more structured, so students often see faster gains in delivery and task shape. Language use improves on the same timeline as any other speaking work. Nobody can tell you a number in advance.
Not usefully. Your tutor will bring authentic-style integrated sets so you practise the real cognitive load, not a simplified version.
Your First Open Mic is a 25-minute timed speaking sample plus feedback on which of the three rubric dimensions is costing you most.
