It was not what I expected

Actually, I bought the book because of its highest rating at Amazon. It seems that there is no good book on TOEFL strategy at all. This one mostly describes the test, it gives some hints, but the proposed strategy doesn't appeal to me. Even having learned it, you still have to guess answers if you do not know a correct one. What they call a strategy can not be compared on real strategy proposed in textbooks for the IELTS. In "Cracking" they have exercises, what is good, but for speaking they propose as an exercise to WRITE your answers, which is stupid because when you speak and write you use different skills (and different areas of the brain, I guess). Very few exercises on speaking. They have one practice test. However, the CD is just an audio CD with audio tracks. So you have to take a paper-based test for training. And you have to manage your time and to record your speaking answers (and you have to do it while speaking). This ain't fittin. Besides, there are mistakes, typos and wrongly formulated questions in the book. Here is a piece of their "Victorian" English: "By mastering the skill of active reading, you'll be able to not only find the most important information in a passage but also effectively answer the questions that follow". Show the phrase to a good English teacher and you'll understand that if you need a score more then 90, you should avoid the book.

The book volume could be two times smaller since there are a lot of blank pages and blank space on pages.

wrong answers in the back

Overall, a good review book. However, there are a few mistakes in the answer section -- the explanation will say, "the correct answer is A because A is the only logical answer" or something to that effect and have the answer choice C (the answer before the explanation) as the correct answer.

Serviceable

Of course, the only way one really learns to teach English is by actually doing it. But you have to start somewhere and this book gives a pretty good general overview of how to go about it. I think it could also help the prospective teacher avoid a lot of pitfalls. My main objection to it is that it's British, with British grammatical usage, British spellings, and British sensibilities. I personally found the DVD a bit disturbing because the teachers had substandard pronunciation. But most of my classmates and my professor disagreed with me. They feel that English is English. Maybe that's okay if the students are going to stay in one location and always work at lower level jobs. But if the students are ambitious, they're going to want to move beyond mere communication of basic needs and substandard speech is going to hold them back. But if that doesn't bother you, you may find that this book will suit your needs.
