Head to the bookstore and look around. There are a load of books out there that focus on the total test, as well as on specific portions. Sounds like you don't have much experience teaching this, either, so you might want to pick up the teacher's edition as well. Some of the teacher's editions have day-to-day lesson objectives. |

What sections are u teaching? Most Korean students go to hagwons to learn listening and reading skills from Korean teachers who get paid big bucks. |

Yeah I have never taught it and don't know too much about it. The students want to focus on the interview portion. I will check the bookstore and look online, but any further advice would be appreciated. Thx. |

The TOIEC interview will be quite new.
Lower levels should focus some time on pronunciation and structure.
Higher levels just want to express themselves better so teach them some helpful idioms, expressions, what not.
Here's a good place to get discussion questions:

Check my site below for 'E' for 'Exams'. It has the link to the TOEIC testing company, ETS. I've never checked their TOEIC pages, but I've used their TOEFL pages and they have a clear run through of all the test components with sample extracts. Otherwise invest in a book such as Longman TOEIC guide which comes complete with really good test practice samples on the accompanying CDRom. |
