Building Skills for the New TOEIC Test, 2nd Ed. – Lin Lougheed

The TOEIC test is widely used by employers and institutions around the world to measure English language skills in a workplace context. Building Skills for the New TOEIC Test, Second Edition, by test-preparation author Lin Lougheed and published by Pearson Longman, is designed to help learners develop the language skills and strategies they need to succeed.

The book covers both sections of the test: listening, which includes photographs, question-response, conversations and short talks, and reading, which includes incomplete sentences, text completion and reading comprehension. For each part, it explains what the task involves, presents practical strategies for answering questions accurately and efficiently, and offers targeted practice to build the underlying skills.

Rather than focusing only on test-taking tips, the book helps learners strengthen their overall English, including vocabulary, grammar and listening and reading comprehension, all within business and everyday workplace contexts. Practice tests allow students to experience realistic test conditions and measure their progress.

Answer keys and audio scripts support self-study and classroom use. Audio recordings for the listening section were supplied separately or on accompanying discs, which may not be included with pre-owned copies.

Clear, structured and practical, Building Skills for the New TOEIC Test, 2nd Ed. is a helpful resource for students and professionals preparing for the TOEIC. Learners should check for any changes to the test format introduced since this edition.
