Il Test TOEFL ITP

The TOEFL ITP (Institutional Testing Programme), derived from the paper-based TOEFL® test, is a low-tech and cost-effective method of evaluating academic English language skills. It is the leading onsite testing programme in the world, with more than 1500 academic institutions administering more than 400,000 TOEFL ITP tests each year. TOEFL ITP consists of previously administered TOEFL forms that can be administered by institutions onsite and simply returned to ETS for scoring.

What is the format of the TOEFL ITP?

The test features 140 multiple-choice questions that evaluate the skill of test-takers in listening comprehension, reading, and structure and written expression. Each section is scored separately: this allows for a focus on areas of weakness, and language courses can be tailored accordingly.

Why TOEFL ITP?

• Flexible administration
• Reliable scores from ETS, recognised worldwide

How does TOEFL ITP differ from the other TOEFL testing programmes?

The TOEFL test is available in two ways: through the "official" international testing programme and through the Institutional Testing Programme. Under the official programme, the test is administered in two formats: paper-based and internet-based. Individual applicants register for the test, submit the proper fee, and may request that official copies of their scores be sent to designated institutions and agencies. The TOEFL ITP is a low-tech and cost-effective method of testing groups of students of any size within classrooms. The test is administered by the academic institution and scores from the ITP are reported only to the testing institution.

How can I use the TOEFL ITP?

• To place students in the appropriate English language courses
• To assess progress from the beginning to the end of a course, by administering the test multiple times as a check-point
• As a practice or mock test that indicates how students can expect to perform on the secure TOEFL test
• As a motivational tool for students who hope to improve their language level enough to take the TOEFL test later
