This book contains as many as 1,650 core TOEFL iBT/ TOEIC words along with

synonyms, definitions, example sentences, and 29 different reviews provided by my

colleagues and students. In order to help students preparing for the TOEFL iBT/

TOEIC to memorize the words more effectively, certain words have stars (*), which

indicate the degrees of diffculty of memorizing them. Based on my long-term

TOEFL/ TOEIC teaching experience, students preparing for the TOEFL iBT/

TOEIC must precisely learn the definitions of the core TOEFL iBT/ TOEIC words

in this book to enhance their TOEFL iBT/ TOEIC scores. Once students have

memorized all the words, they will be able to start dealing with questions from the

reading, writing, listening, and speaking sections more easily and efficiently. I have

no doubt that this book will enable students to become better TOEFL iBT/ TOEIC

test takers.

I have been working as a TOEFL iBT and TOEFL CBT instructor for more

than 15 years in both New York and New Jersey in the US. In addition, I have made

a ceaseless and indefatigable effort to analyze the TOEFL iBT/ TOEIC questions on

a daily basis in order to become a better TOEFL iBT/ TOEIC lecturer and to meet

my students' demands as well. Ultimately, it led me to start and complete this book.

I am certain that this book will play a tremendously positive role in helping students

boost their TOEFL iBT/ TOEIC scores.
