TOEIC Exam Preparation Roadmap from Beginner to 750+: A Step-by-Step Guide (2025)

1. Why is it important to create a proper TOEIC exam preparation plan?

TOEIC is a popular international English proficiency test in Vietnam, especially among students and working professionals. However, many TOEIC learners struggle to improve their scores, failing to achieve their desired results even after multiple attempts — often due to a lack of a clear study plan.

A smart TOEIC test preparation plan will help you save time, focus on the right areas, and increase your chances of achieving your goals of 450+, 600+, or even 750+.

That's why Lingoland for TOEIC Test is designed to help learners build their own personalized study plan, with progress tracking, entrance tests, and specific target scores — helping you "pass the test on your first try."

2. TOEIC test preparation roadmap for beginners

Phase 1: Entrance Level Assessment

Before you begin studying, you should know your current level.

With Lingoland, you can take a free TOEIC practice test right on the app to identify your strengths and weaknesses, and the system will then suggest the most suitable learning plan.

Phase 2: Building a language foundation

For those who have lost their foundation or score below 350 points, this is the most crucial stage.

You need to reinforce your basic grammar (tenses, conditional sentences, relative clauses, etc.) and learn fundamental TOEIC vocabulary.

Lingoland provides a ready-made set of 600 essential TOEIC vocabulary words , along with practice exercises and flashcards to help you memorize them faster.

Additionally, the app includes listening practice sections (Part 1 and Part 2) with standard American and British pronunciation at a moderate pace to help you gradually get used to it.

Phase 3: Practice each TOEIC skill individually.

Once you have a foundation, move on to practicing each section in depth:

• TOEIC Listening: Practice by Part 2 → Part 3 → Part 4. Lingoland has a set of listening practice tests that closely resemble the real exam, helping you get used to the speed and context of the conversations.
• TOEIC Reading: Start with Part 5 (grammar and vocabulary), then gradually move up to Part 7 (reading comprehension). The application displays a detailed analysis of each question and answer, helping you understand why you made a mistake.

Phase 4: TOEIC Practice Tests (Full Test)

Once you've mastered each section, practice with a full 2-hour test, just like the real exam.

Lingoland provides practice tests that closely resemble the ETS exam, with automatic scoring and a progress tracking chart to help you monitor your progress after each practice session.

3. Should I study TOEIC online or offline?

Both formats have their own advantages, but if you're busy, want flexible learning, and want to save money, then TOEIC online is a more suitable option.

With Lingoland, you can still:

• Learn by following a clear learning path.
• Set a target score for your desired score.
• Track your progress in learning each skill.
• Study anytime, anywhere, using only your phone.

4. Which TOEIC course should I choose?

If you choose to study at a center, prioritize those with a personalized learning path and a clear commitment to achieving desired outcomes.

If you want to study TOEIC at home, choose an app that has:

• The ETS test question bank is very accurate.
• Automatic scoring and error correction feature.
• Vocabulary resources organized by TOEIC topic.
• Detailed learning progress report.

👉 All these elements are included in Lingoland for TOEIC Test – a tool that helps you effectively practice all four TOEIC skills and achieve your high score target in a short time.

5. How long does it take to achieve a TOEIC score of 500–750?

Depending on your entry level, the time required will vary:

• Starting from scratch (<250 points): 3–4 months to reach 450+.
• On average (400–500 points): 2–3 months to reach 600+.
• Fair (600+): 1–2 months of practice tests to achieve 750+.

The important thing is that you study in the right direction – focusing on the right topics.

Take advantage of Lingoland's smart learning path; the system will automatically suggest suitable learning content based on your target score.
