Ask CESL Question: What’s something I can do to study for TOEFL? Answer: Check out Brecht’s TOEFL Word of the Day board located next to room 202. Each day features a new vocabulary word selected from the TOEFL recommended word list. The board lists a word, its part of speech (e.g., noun, adj., verb., etc.), and a brief definition. Ask anyone for pronunciation help. Study easily everyday as you walk to class!
