TST Prep Reviews 

I took private classes with Todd. He assessed my current score and gave me feedback to reach Toefl desired score for FPGEE. I got
R 22, L 25, S 26, W 24. Your way of teaching is excellent especially for speaking task 1 and task 3. Thank you so much.

Absolutely fantastic videos by Josh and his TST prep channel. Managed to score 102 solely (!) on his YouTube videos during one week. If I had more time I'm 💯 sure I would have scored more.
Highly recommend!

The other reviews of this place are phenomenal and rightly so. I want to talk about the specific products by TST so you can decide which works best for you:

1) Free YouTube Videos: TST has free, comprehensive TOEFL-style questions on their YouTube channel. You can find at least four full tests (some are broken into parts in different videos) for FREE!

2) Free PDF Documents: Check the YouTube video descriptions for free PDFs, including templates for speaking and writing. Super helpful. I didn't memorise them but just got the gist to help structure my response. Please look for documents like "100 Independent Speaking Questions" and "100 Listening Questions". I found these pdf when I logged in to the TST websites. These PDFs are extremely high-yield for your prep.

3) Free Practice Questions: Please search on google or duckduckgo for "Practice questions for TOEFL speaking" to find a TST website with speaking questions (click submit sample button to see the full question), sample student responses, and teacher feedback. More free practice for speaking!

4) Paid Emergency Course: Now the paid options. For around $30 (with a coupon), the Emergency Course offers two full-length tests with sample answers and extra goodies like 20 listening lectures to practice fast note taking. It's cheaper compared to another company that sells practice tests. (I cannot mention that company because of Trust pilot guidelines). If you watched their Youtube free videos, you know their practice test are excellent! :-D

5) Speaking Evaluation: For $30, a TST teacher provides feedback on your speaking response. This helped me improve my score significantly, in a short time (I ended with a 29. I admit I started with a high score but the feedback helped me polish my skills). Highly recommended if you're struggling with the speaking section. Please get this well in advance so you have plenty of time to work on mistakes.

6) Writing Evaluation: Similar to the speaking evaluation, a TST teacher evaluates your writing response for $30. I got a 26 even though I lost a few points due to a problem while taking the exam at home :,) Here's the thing, AI can check your writing; however, there is a problem relying solely on AI without human evaluators as of 2025. AI can tell you your mistakes but it doesn't triage them. For instance AI will indicate many comma mistakes (argh!) and change sentence structures. But those aren't mistakes ETS examiners penalize extensively, it's just that AI prefers to write sentences in its stringent way which it learned from the internet. That's fine. But you might need a teacher to tell you which mistakes are blatantly obvious and which can be ignored as a difference in writing. You can skip this but if you want an experienced teacher to evaluate your TST writing please get help from the experts at TST.

Customer service: My emergency course test had a question that I already attempted in one of their free YouTube videos. I contacted TST and they helped immediately. So 10/10.

I hope this review is comprehensive enough. The free resources are a must for everyone, and the paid products are great for targeted practice. TST tests are necessary for prep, so going through 1-2 of their tests is essential for the exam, even with excellent English proficiency. Best of luck!

if you want to reach your goal score trust me this is the best.

The Teacher is great it helped me in listening and reading section a lot

I mainly took help of the youtube videos and the pdfs for speaking and writing section and they were absolutely a great help. Scored 105. Thanks to this amazing channel, it was easy to fathom what I was dealing with and how I should respond to the questions.

Josh, thank you so much for everything you do to help us with TOEFL Test. I have just received my score and I obtained 111/120, and it was all thanks to you, because my sole preparation was watching your videos and taking your Emergency Course, just 2 weeks before the test day. I was frankly afraid of the speaking section and I got 27, besides 29 in Reading, 27 in Listening, and 28 in Writing. Thank you so much again, and good luck for all the people who prepare using your resources, you're amazing!

The study material is very helpful. I highly recommend using TST Prep to prepare for the TOEFL test.

Hey, Josh. Just wanna let you know that you are doing GREAT at what you do. I only have 2 days to prepare, and praise to Allaah, I got 96 (R 23, L 25, S 24, W 24), higher than year 2020 where I got 95 (R 21, L 25, S 23, W 26). Thank you very much.

I totally recommend his emergency course and Youtube videos as well which are literally free of cost. Both helped me a lot

I completely recommend its courses. In my case, I only had 8 days to prepare for my exam and the emergency course helped me.

TST Prep helped me improve my TOEFL score by 20 points in just a couple of days. I highly recommend to take the courses no matter what your English level is, since it delivers a detailed explanation on the structure of the exam, and you will not waste valuable time searching for millions of material on internet that can be overwhelming. Trust me, this is the place you've been looking for hours to study for the TOEFL test.

After so much confusion, I started watching TST Prep videos for my exam. Josh explained each section really well, especially the templates for writing and speaking. They really helped me during my test, and with just 10 days of prep using TST Prep videos, I scored 111/120. This was the first time I ever took the TOEFL exam.

Extremely helpful. 100% recommended.

I highly recommend TST prep for all students aiming to ace the TOEFL and achieve their dream scores. The lessons are extremely structured, which saves time and provides a deeper understanding of the material. A big thank you to the incredible and funny teacher, Todd, with whom I took online classes. He taught me a unique method that helped me achieve my dream score in speaking. Thanks a lot, Todd! I nailed my TOEFL on the first attempt. Believe in yourself, everyone! I wish you all the best in your test prep—you can definitely do it!

I love what this site has to offer and it has really impacted my score and made a drastic change in my headspace when going into the DET. I was much less nervous since I knew what to expect on the test.

Their TOEFL tips are awesome. I especially benefited from their listening tips. My score increased from 99 to 106

I highly recommend TST prep! It’s incredibly up-to-date with the latest test formats and provides thorough guidance for every section. Josh is an amazing person. The tips, tricks, and templates shared are invaluable, and this channel made it so much easier to approach the actual test with confidence. If you’re serious about acing the TOEFL, this is your to go place.

I was preparing for my TOEFL exam and I found the TST Prep videos on YouTube. They were very informative and helpful for me. In addition, I took the emergency course and my life was changed, literally. Josh is an excellent teacher and the tools he provides in the course are useful for English in general. I got my dream result.
Overall, TST is excellent from the examples to the tips for success. I am going to recommend them always.
