TOEIC and other tests

Postbox letter from Dr John Smith

There is a lot of debate regarding the TOEIC testing for non-native English speakers and in my opinion it is a double edged sword and cuts both ways.


Who should take the TOEIC test?

Postbox letter from Jason Carmichael

There has been a lot of talk about the newly introduced TOEIC-requirement lately. Many teachers are angry because the MOE demands that Irish and South African nationals, who are considered NES teachers, are required to sit that test too.


NES or Non-NES?

Postbox letter from Keith

I've heard that the Ministry of Lack of Education in Thailand is now demanding that South Africans and wait for it, Irish nationals have to sit a TOEIC examination.


Bonkers!

Postbox letter from Rob

Why do I have to take this stupid TOEIC test?
