How to check the pronunciation of a word
By A. Julliard on Sunday, September 16 2012, 21:58
It is important to learn words with the right pronunciation: first to be understood when you speak and secondly to understand the word when you hear it pronounced by a native (in real life! or for an oral comprehension test!)
So when you learn your vocabulary and you've got a doubt on the pronunciation, check it in a dictionary / ˈdɪkʃənerɪ/with the phonetic transcription or use this website.

How to get better at the TOEIC
By A. Julliard on Saturday, January 22 2011, 20:32
TOEIC is an acronym that stands for Test Of English for International Communication. It is the most widely used English language exam taken by more than 4 million business professionals worldwide. The TOEIC test measures your ability to use English in daily business situations covering such topics as corporate development, finance and budgeting, corporate property, IT, manufacturing, purchasing, offices, personnel, technical matters, health and business travel. A growing number of international companies recognize the TOEIC as an objective indicator of a person's proficiency in business English. It is important to understand that the TOEIC does not measure what have you learned in one particular English class but evaluates your general command of the English language in a business setting. This means, you have to use and explore as many materials, resources and methods as possible in order to improve your English. You should create an environment in which you are exposed to the English language on a daily basis. For example, you can listen to the Voice of America, watch television on CNN, SkyNews or BBC, read newspaper articles in English and write emails. In addition, the Internet provides you with a wide variety of learning tools such as electronic newsletters, discussion groups and forums.
