Abstract

Preparation is one step for someone to be mentally feasible and skillful to join and be a part of an activity or a group. Likewise is for senior high school students proposing to go to higher education. One challenge for those prospective university students is the mastery of English - a scientific language. The study aims at finding out the effects of the TOEFL preparation program on the reading skills and structure mastery. Moreover, gentle perceptions are gained to ascertain the course design implementation. Up beyond than those aims, this English reading and structure course is held to assisting the prospective students, at the level of pre-intermediate English skills, ready to continue to higher education level. All students from the final level were assigned as the sample of the study. One-group experiment design, with pre-posttest design, is used to perceive the effectiveness of the course. The findings show the positive effects occur only on the reading skills. However, the test-result discussion on the structure is held to observe the washback effects on the test performance.
