Comment: "I was sick and tired of taking the Toefl  exam  many times and getting the same score of 24 in my speaking sections. But, after practicing with "Notefull "  with 5 hours tutorial section my score jumped from 24  to 27.It was impossible without Joseph’s help. So, I would like to take the opportunity and thank the “Notefull” for the great help and I highly recommend you guys to take this chance and raise your score without any doubt."

Comment: "I did pass my toefl last october. Your website was extremely helpful to me because I finally got 28 points in the speaking section. And I needed 26 points! I needed your help specifically to get that crazy score in the speaking section. I usually got high scores in the other sections of the toefl test. I tried at least 5 to 6 times before on my own but couldn't reach the 26 in the speaking section. I feel extremely grateful for finding your material on internet. Thank you! marie - pharmacist from France"

Comment: "I am so grateful to you, Joseph. Youe Ebooks and the examples answers really helped me alot. I took the toefl test countless of times and I couldn't get more than a score of 23 in speaking. Although I studied form many materials including Barron's and Kaplan, I've found that your examples answers were completely different and much easier. I practised the 6 tests and followed step by step the instruction for answering each question. The example answers and videos are really amazing!! I remembered each advice for answering each question. I felt more confident and when I had my last exam, I ended up getting a score of 27 in speaking. Besides that had a significant influence on my work. I no longer have that trouble when I talk to natives becasue I can now communicate bettter and have people understand my speech. Thanks to you , again, I am sure that your websire is going to be the best source for all Toefl test takers all over the world."

Comment: "I came to United States four months ago with a reasonable goal; get a high score on the TOEFL test. But when I started to prepare myself for the test I realized that is was easy to study for the reading and listening sections, because I found plenty information about it. In the other hand I couldn’t find any information about the writing and speaking sections. Every time that I had to do the practices I kept running out of time, or freezing my speech, lost about the structure. When I started to study by using the notefull.com I could control my speech and manage my timing on the answers. The website has practices with the exact same format of the test. It also has the structure to answer all the questions of the test. Once I had the structure memorized, answering the questions was easier. A few months later I did the test and I achieved a good score, 97 points 24 on speaking section and 25 on the writing section. It was my first test, I had no experience on the real test, but I had a lot of experience on the practices of the notefull.com. This is why I recommend it to everybody that’s preparing to TOEFL test."

Comment: "Dear Joseph, My name is Rodica and I am very happy to tell you that I got my required Toefl score since last September. Actually, the speaking section was my biggest issue, but finally I passed with 27 (and 108 overall). Your website helped me a lot. I studied from other books, etc., but your tests were so close compared to the real test, that I used them as a final tool to measure my performance before the test. I have recommended your website to other students, as well."

Comment: "A tremendous thank you to NOTEFULL webpage especially to Joseph's tutoring. After being in Joseph's online class, the strategies from NOETFULL webpage make a lot of more sense to me. For example, it saves me a lot of time to figure out what it means by using "as" or "even though" when I was in his online class. I start to laugh when I look back how stupid I was because such a straightforward concept took me so long time to understand before taking his tutorial. Furthermore, his immediate feedback works best when he's evaluating your response right away. As we know, it's harder to evaluate ourselves accurately than others (especially experienced TOEFL instructors like Joseph) do. For example, I listened to my recording hundreds of times, but I didn't realize that I started to slow down when I spoke towards the end of my talk until Joseph pointed it out. Another aspect that I want to mention here is he tells you how to turn your weaknesses to strengths. For example, to respond question 4, if you're unable to summarize the definition effectively, he suggests you not to include the definition in your speaking. Before the tutorial, I wasn't brave enough to exclude it in my answer. I didn't include the definition in my last test; I still received “Good” for question 4 and 6. It is evident that he is right. I've learned a lot of more in his class. Those I mentioned above are the most key things that helped me increase my score dramatically, from 22 to 26 in speaking, the best score that I have ever received. I desperately want to share my thoughts about Joseph's teaching when I have one more point to achieve. I highly recommend you guys to take the opportunities here because it IS the best class that I have been looking for years."

Comment: "Hi Joseph, I would like to thank you for your website. Your methods for the speaking and writing parts are unbelievable. I had only 3 days to study the TOEFL test. Your methods and advices were exactly what I needed. Every thing is well and clearly explained and can be easily assimilated. I can only highly recommend you to every TOEFL test taker. I take time to thank you because I feel I owe you. I had to reach a score of over 95 to be accepted and my score is 98."

Comment: "Got the magic number 26 in speaking at last!!!!! I have no wards to explain how happy I am now, after taking the Toefl Ibt for several years (you won't believe if I mention how many times I took it.)  I thought I am never going to get 26 in speaking although my overall score ranges from 103 to 110. I feel fortunate to find Joseph who thought me specific format which I find very easy to follow, yet gives you 26 even on your first try. I just took one month course with Joseph and I got 26 on my next exam. His private tutoring is unique that it gave me the opportunity to fine tune my speaking strategies and I felt super confident after having just 2 classes. I strongly recommend his program who wants to get faster results especially in Speaking. I feel I would never forget the help I got from Joseph in achieving this difficult task in an easy way."

Comment: "Hey, Joseph, This morning, I've got 26 in speaking section already, and don't need go to take another exam tomorrow. The best $170 I've ever thrown away ^^ It is needless to say that this jumping up to 26 from endless number of 23 is only by your tutorial, just once, just 2 and a half hours. There was nothing else I did differently before that toefl. I really appreciate your precise understanding on question structures and what evaluators want. Thank you so much and all the best in your profession!"

Hi Joseph, I just have two words for you from the bottom of my heart: THANK YOU! I taught that I will need a magic to get 26 points in speaking part necessary for my pharmacy license. Than I discovered your TOEFL tips on YouTube and the hope was again on my side. With your guide and simple advices I reached my goal and got the score! Thank you! Valerija

Hello Mr Joseph. I hope everything is going well. Here is my story. I have attended the TOEFL test three times in Canada. The first time was in January 2010 (21R, 19L, 20S, and 20W). This was good but not good enough. I felt happy because it was my first time. However, after three months studying hard in Canada, plus following all your advises explained in your videos. I attended my third TOEFL test. Unfortunately, the scores were 23R, 22L, 18S, and 21W. It was devastating because I was really working hard improving meanly my English speaking skill, and I got 18, less than the first time when I presented the test just to know how it was like. So, I know that luck is and important factor, but I think that success have to be more with discipline and hard work rather than luck. Now, I do not know what to do. I am frustrated, upset, depressed, etc. I really need to have 86 with at least 20 in each session. I do not want to believe that the TOEFL is just a "business". Please give me your best advise to improve my scores. Thanks. Jessy from Colombia.

You're welcome to everyone here and thank you for letting me and NoteFull be a part of your success. You worked hard and deserve your success. I myself come to this page for motivation and inspiration to work harder and make the site better; your words really motivate me and show other students that success is possible. Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a message for the community. You show that you should never give up. I know many of you have struggled for years with this test and finally reached your goal. I'm incredibly grateful for your kind words and I hope that you will spread the word to those struggling with the TOEFL that honest help is here. There is no magic, just guided, focused practice and strategy that's specific to the TOEFL and really works. I wish you a sincere and heartfelt good luck in all of your future endeavors.

THANK YOU very much Mr. Joseph. I got 27 in both the writing and the speaking sections. I had only one week to prepare for my Toefl, I was so happy i found you on YouTube, I used your techniques and I ended up with a score over 100. The highest scores were in the speaking and the writing. I was so happy, I am so grateful to you. Your way of teaching is very simple yet effective. Keep it up.

Hi Joseph! I would like to express my great gratitude and appreciation for your work, what you do is just amazing!!! I had only three days to prepare for my TOEFL iBT exam and by then I even didn't know how the structure of the test looks like. Really, just three days. When researching on the Internet I came across your videos at youtube, which in turn led me to your website. Even though I didn't have an opportunity to take the advantage of your paid courses I did use all free resources available. This was an immense, incredible help! If it weren't for your videos and all advices you posted on the website I would probably have failed gravely the speaking part and get a bad result in the writing part. Your strategies made a huge difference! I memorized them and followed during the exam, exactly like you suggested. How happy I was today to see that it worked amazingly for me!!!:) 28 in reading, 29 in listening, 26 in speaking, 30 in writing, all in all 113:) It is thanks to you! From now one you can consider me as your dedicated supporter! I will advise every single person I know wishing to take TOEFL to use your strategies, to subscribe to your courses and just to take full advantage of what you offer. That is just AMAZING and it WORKS!:) I do thank you greatly!
