TOEIC: learn, practise and prepare

The core route covers TOEIC Listening & Reading. Speaking & Writing is a separate test route with its own official sample materials. A written practice workbook cannot replace recorded listening or photograph tasks.

A–Z syllabus map

This map shows the full range to work towards. The EWS units and focused workbooks build skills; use the linked official practice for a complete test-format check. A checklist entry does not mean a full mock has been produced for that task.

Listening & Reading

Part 1: Photographs
Part 2: Question–Response
Part 3: Conversations
Part 4: Talks
Part 5: Incomplete Sentences
Part 6: Text Completion
Part 7: Reading Comprehension — single and multiple passages

Separate Speaking & Writing route

Speaking: read aloud; describe a picture; respond to questions; respond using provided information; express an opinion
Writing: sentences based on pictures; written requests; opinion essay
Use the separate official Speaking & Writing sample pack for its complete task sequence; the nine EWS core units focus on Listening & Reading

Stage 1

Beginner

Start here if you need help with short sentences and everyday vocabulary. Read each explanation, study the worked example, then attempt the matching workbook task.

Understand people, actions and places at work

රැකියා ස්ථානයේ කවුද කුමක් කරන්නේද සහ කොතැනද යන්න හඳුනාගන්න.

Workplace English often describes an action, a person or a location. Learn complete phrases such as sign a form, carry a box, arrange a meeting and wait at reception. Check who performs the action. A receptionist welcomes a visitor; a visitor signs in. Knowing the relationship helps you understand a sentence even when one word is unfamiliar. Use pictures or objects around you to practise simple true descriptions.

Compare actions in progress with completed results. A worker is opening a door describes the action now; the door is open describes its state. Be careful with location words: beside is not behind, and above is not under. In photograph-style preparation, describe only what the image supports. You cannot know a person's job title, plans or feelings simply from clothing. The full TOEIC Part 1 uses actual photographs and recorded choices. Text-only foundation descriptions teach language but are not a complete Part 1 simulation.

Worked examples

The boxes are beside the desk. This locates the boxes; it does not say they are on the desk.
A person is holding a clipboard. The object is visible, but calling the person the manager would require additional evidence.

Answer the question that was actually asked

ප්‍රශ්නයේ කවුරුන්, කොහේද, කවදාද සහ ඉල්ලීම කුමක්ද යන්නට ගැළපෙන පිළිතුර තෝරන්න.

Before choosing a reply, identify what the speaker is doing. Where is the meeting? asks for a place. When does it begin? asks for a time. Could you send the file? is usually a request, not a question about your physical ability. A natural reply may be Certainly, I will send it now. The answer does not need to repeat a word from the question, and a repeated word can be a distractor.

Listen for negatives and indirect replies. Haven't we ordered the paper yet? requires attention to whether an order has already been placed. I will check with purchasing is a reasonable workplace response even though it is not a simple yes or no. Review wrong choices by explaining why they fail: wrong information type, similar sound or an unrelated topic. Start with clear everyday exchanges, then practise unfamiliar speakers and longer requests. During a real listening task, do not pause the recording or look at a transcript unless the task specifically allows it.

Worked examples

Where should I leave this parcel? Useful reply: At the front desk. A time such as tomorrow afternoon does not answer where.
Could you help me with the projector? Useful reply: Of course; what seems to be wrong? This accepts the request and asks a relevant follow-up.

Read notices, deadlines and polite emails

දැන්වීම්වල අවසන් දිනය සහ වෙනස් වූ තොරතුරු සොයා ආචාරශීලීව ලියන්න.

A short workplace notice usually has a purpose: announce a change, request an action, give instructions or confirm an arrangement. Find that purpose first. Then identify who must act, what they must do and the deadline. By Friday means no later than Friday; after Friday means later than Friday. Unless introduces an exception or condition. Marking these words helps prevent a choice based only on the most noticeable date.

Emails often update an earlier message, so read them in order. If the first notice names Room 2 and a later email changes it to Room 5, the actual venue is Room 5 unless there is another update. To write a short reply, acknowledge the request, provide the needed information and close politely. In TOEIC Listening and Reading you answer comprehension questions; writing an email belongs to separate Speaking and Writing preparation. The useful workplace language can support both routes, but the test bookings and scoring systems remain different.

Worked examples

Notice: Register by Thursday. The registration deadline is Thursday; Saturday might be the event day rather than the deadline.
Email: Thank you for the schedule. I can attend the morning session. Please confirm whether I should bring my laptop. Each sentence serves a clear purpose.
