Reading skills: Being able to read and understand information and then being able to answer questions about what you have read

If you want to be successful at school-and do well on the iBT TOEFL, TEPS-you need good reading skills. There is more to reading that just looking at the words in a book.

In the end, you should focus on developing the following skills:

* Detail Skills - You should be able to identify and remember the details of the information in the passages you read.
* Comprehension Skills - You should be able to understand what you have read.
* Inference Skills - You should be able to "read between the lines" and understand the implications the writer of a passage is making.
* Speaking Skills -You should be able to talk about and discuss what you have read by using proper, grammatically correct English.
* Writing Skills -You should be able to write about what you have read by using proper, grammatically correct English.
