TOEFL Speaking is 11 items in 8 minutes: sentences you hear and repeat, and an interview on one topic. Both are judged on how you sound. Pace, hesitation and where your pauses fall are the part you can measure at home. Talk for sixty seconds and see it.
Updated for the January 2026 TOEFL format. Scoring is now 1–6 bands, not 0–120.
Reading and Listening are adaptive, and Speaking is 11 items in 8 minutes. Our Speaking
delivery coaching is complete and current; the lesson videos for the two new speaking tasks
are being re-recorded now.
Three free drills every day — no card needed. The full course covers
Speaking, Reading, Listening and Writing.

and what the 2026 speaking tasks actually ask
TOEFL and TOEFL iBT are registered trademarks of Educational Testing Service
(ETS). How you Talk is an independent practice tool and is not affiliated with, endorsed
by, or approved by ETS. We measure how you deliver an answer — pace, hesitations, pauses
and filler words — and give you practice against it. We do not predict, estimate or guarantee an
official TOEFL score, and no practice result here is a TOEFL result.
What are you aiming for?
The number you need is set by the country or the university, not by the exam —
and it changes what "good enough" means in every drill. Tell us once and the targets follow
you around.
What you get, plainly
Attempts. Delivery drills: 3 a day free, unlimited with a pass. Full written analysis: your first one free, then 60 a month on a plan that includes it.
Scoring. Every score here is a practice estimate, not an official grade.
Refunds. A week pass is not refundable; a month pass is, in its first two weeks, less a week’s price for each week started; a one-time course is not refundable. Full policy.
What each country actually asks for
Most people sitting this exam are not doing it for fun — they need a number for a
visa or a university. The number is usually lower than people think, and the number that gets
you invited is usually higher.
Canada
Express EntryTOEFL is not accepted for Express Entry at any score. Canada takes IELTS
General Training, CELPIP General, PTE Core, or French TEF/TCF. TOEFL is accepted for
STUDY permits, where the institution sets the requirement — so the same test that is
right for a Canadian university is wrong for Canadian permanent residence.IRCC ↗
Australia
Skilled visas 189 / 190 / 491Australia accepts TOEFL iBT here. Competent English is the floor and scores zero points.
Proficient is 10 points and Superior is 20; Home Affairs publishes the TOEFL section scores for each — and in a points
test, twenty points is usually the difference between being invited and waiting.Home Affairs ↗
United Kingdom
Skilled WorkerB1 on the CEFR across all four skills — a far lower bar than Canada or Australia, and
one many candidates over-prepare for. Student routes are usually B2. Check the specific
route: they differ.GOV.UK ↗
Universities
Undergraduate and postgraduateTypically TOEFL 79–90 for undergraduate and 90–100 for postgraduate, very often
with a minimum in each skill. That per-skill minimum is what catches people: a 7.5
overall with 5.5 in Writing fails an offer requiring 6.0 in each.
Checked August 2026, and these change. Every figure above is a summary
with a link to the authority that sets it — governments revise points tests, band floors and
programme rules without much notice, and a page like this one is exactly where an out-of-date
number does damage. Confirm on the official site before you book anything, and never on the
strength of a conversion chart alone.
What it costs
The exam itself is ₹18,000, and a retake is ₹18,000 again. That is the
only comparison worth making.
