I will be teaching some TOEFL in the near future for the first time. I really don't quite understand what I'm supposed to do for this. Does anyone on here have some experience that would like to share?

What sections are you going to be teaching? My advice is learn the test as best as you can. For the speaking a writing sections I have always had the students learn a basic formula consisting of:

1. Brief introduction that restates the topic
2. First supporting idea introduced with a conjunction
3. Detailed examples for the first supporting idea

Rinse and repeat.
