Hello, welcome.
It seems that you're from India. It's about 2 years since I'm here. I did some corrections for your introduction.

Hi,
My name is Priya. I am 24 years old, and I am a new member on ESL forum. I would like to take the TOEFL exam on April.
Thank you.

Hello Priya and Salivan,

I would like to introduce myself as Nipun from Bangladesh. I am willing to prepare myself for TOEFL for June. It will be a great pleasure for me if you can suggest me in how to prepare myself for this exam. As I am doing a full time job, I usually don't get much time to admit myself in a training center.

I am waiting for a reply from you in this regards.

[Pasban110]

Hello Nipun, how do you do?
Well, it is hard to do a full time job, and study for TOEFL, too. However, it depends on your willing to care about this exam. I am almost free all these next two months. So, I am working out to do my best. I suggest you that after your work, come back home, and eagerly try to study TOEFL. You may use those TOEFL guide or preparation books, and also use this wonderful site to improve both your reading, writing, listening, speaking, and vocabulary skills.

Use this link http://www.english-test.net/forum to find what you need.

Hello Salivan,

Thank you for the reply. I will try to utilize as much time as I can for TOEFL. Right now I am mainly putting my efforts on listening and writing. I am wishing you best of luck for the exam.

Best regards,
Nipun

Hi Nipun,
I found this link ESLPOD.com interesting. Try English Cafe, ESLPOD, and TOEFL PodCast. They are just amazing. I am listening English Cafe and TOEFL PodCast right now. Also, you can try http://www.english-test.net/forum/forum16.html for your writing.
To improve your writing, I suggest read as more as you can. Oh, take a look at Alan's newslatter here: http://www.english-test.net/newsletter

Gould luck with your exam, LOL.

-Salivan

P.S.
I am not advertising anything, LOL!

Hi Salivan,

Thanks for the tips. I have already posted a writing there and got some suggestion from Ketos. I am now working on those suggestions. Thank you once again for the tips and I am looking forward for some more tips from you.

Best regards,
Nipun

Hi, your welcome.
He's KITOS (his real name is Bill). I like him very much. LOL! I'm sure that you know there are a lot of resources to study for TOEFL. But you must encourage and compel yourself to use these stuffs.
By the way, don't forget to search Youtube for "TOEFL Talk," so forth. I like Steve's programs. I think his Youtube ID is "PrivateEngishPortal.com", or something like that. Don't forget to watch his TOEFL TALK programs.

Oh, may I ask you where do you work? And what is your career?

-Salivan

[Nipun027]

Thank you Salivan for the tips. I am working for Beximco Pharmaceuticals Limited as 'Executive, International Marketing'. I have graduated in Pharmacy. Now I want to receive a post-graduate degree in pharmaceutical science from a reputed university. For this purpose I am preparing for TOEFL.

So you can tell me about yourself.

Best regards,
Nipun

P.S.
I do have so many problems to apply my admission; MILITARY SERVICES, my family, my future career, and so forth. "Can there be a worse calamity than which will befall me!," just kidding, LOL. To be honest, I am really worry about my future.

[Nipun027]
