Default Re: Teaching writing

I would definitely find out why she needs to get her writing to the same level as her spoken English. If it's to have a better balance of skills, you may approach her needs differently than just for test prep purposes. And also consider that the TOEFL test could be to study abroad, as a lot of students who take the test then plan to go to university overseas. She'll definitely need writing skills for college-level tests and essay exams.

Good luck.
