The TOEIC (Test of English for International Communication) is the world’s most-requested business English certification. AMBIZ has prepared candidates for TOEIC Listening & Reading since 1993 in Abidjan.
Why take the TOEIC
TOEIC has become a de facto standard for validating English level in corporate contexts. Many Ivorian top schools require it for graduation, and many companies request it for hiring or international promotion.
TOEIC Listening & Reading takes 2 hours, scored out of 990. 800+ = C1 (proficient), 650-790 = B2 (advanced), 500-640 = B1 (intermediate).
Our method
Our prep is tightly focused on test-specific patterns: business vocabulary, accents (US, UK, Australian, Canadian in Listening), classic traps. Progress is fast because questions are highly standardised and we know the patterns inside-out.
- Initial mock test in real conditions.
- Listening drills: photos, Q&A, dialogues, monologues.
- Reading drills: incomplete sentences, text completion, comprehension.
- 2 full simulations at the end of the track.

To gain 100-150 points on the TOEIC, plan 30 to 50 hours of targeted prep. Intensive over 3-5 weeks or spread across 2 months. Group, semi-private or private. FDFP funding (No. 92-529) — particularly relevant for corporate TOEIC (upskilling before promotion or mobility).
