Studying TOEIC online has never been easier: Tam Dao’s secret to scoring 905 with Prep Edu

With a personalized study plan and targeted strategies to improve each skill, Tam Dao successfully scored 905 on the TOEIC after four months of study and practice with Prep Edu.

Stay on track with personalized study plan

At the beginning of her TOEIC journey, Tam Dao set a clear goal for herself to reach a 900+ score, a requirement she needed for her graduation. She decided to choose Prep Edu to make the most of her study and practice time.

“What I enjoy most about studying TOEIC online with Prep Edu, compared to traditional classes, is the flexibility. I can study whenever it fits my schedule, review any lesson as many times as I want, and follow a clear study path that makes everything feel more organized.”

To stay on track, she made full use of Prep Edu’s Personalized Study Plan. She shared: “Prep Edu’s Study Plan gives me a clear, structured path toward my target. The progress tracker also keeps me motivated because I can actually see how far I’ve come.”

Tam Dao spent around 3-4 months preparing for the exam. During the first month and a half, she focused on strengthening her foundation before moving on to practice tests. On average, she studied 2-3 hours a day. She usually watched the lesson videos first and then completed the exercises right away to reinforce her learning.

Boost Listening and Reading scores with lessons and practical activities

The skill Tam Dao struggled with the most was Listening, especially Parts 2 and 3. She focused closely on Prep Edu’s lessons, took careful notes, and applied the techniques when practicing. Prep Edu helped her improve through dictation exercises, listening repeatedly, and training herself to concentrate and retain information. She also made it a habit to listen to English on Spotify and watch English videos to strengthen her listening skills.

For Reading, she scored 455, which she was quite happy with. Prep Edu’s teachers showed her how to manage her time more effectively across the sections. She usually started with Part 7 so she could tackle the harder questions while her mind was still fresh, then moved on to the easier ones afterward. To strengthen her reading skills, Tam Dao also read a lot of English books. “I really love reading in English. I downloaded tons of books, novels, and even history materials to read. Because of that, the TOEIC Reading test felt much easier compared to reading a full novel. My learning tip is that you need to truly understand what you’re reading and approach English as a real everyday language, not just something you study for the exam.”

Practice TOEIC like the real test with Prep Edu

In addition to studying the lessons, Tam Dao emphasized that regularly practicing full-length tests played a key role in building her confidence and achieving high scores. “Practicing with Prep Edu felt incredibly close to the real test, thanks to the realistic testing environment and the wide variety of exercises. This preparation made me feel relaxed on test day, since I was already familiar with the pace and structure of the TOEIC from my time studying and practicing with Prep Edu. This approach was key to achieving my scores of 450 in Listening and 455 in Reading.”

After months of consistent study and practice with Prep Edu, she achieved an impressive 905 on the TOEIC, exactly what she had aimed for. She reflected: “Prep Edu gave me all the essential knowledge and practice I needed. The price was absolutely worth the value I received.”

“Looking back on the whole preparation journey, I feel really happy and proud of my efforts and dedication. All the hard work I put in truly paid off. I am very grateful to Prep Edu for being my companion and supporting me throughout this journey.”
