TST Prep is the best option on this list if you want help from a real teacher without paying for a large package up front. The Emergency Course Basic costs $37 for one year and includes 6 hours of video lectures, 2 complete practice tests, academic vocabulary and 6 downloadable PDFs, while Emergency Course Premium raises that to 6 practice tests for $97. The Complete Test Pack adds twenty full tests for $89. Teacher services are sold one at a time: a TOEFL trial lesson costs $29, a speaking evaluation $29, and writing evaluations start at $27 for two essays with line-by-line correction and feedback within 48 hours. Private lesson packages cost $397 for 6 lessons, $597 for 10 and $897 for 18, each with access to the Score Builder Courses. Group classes run in 6 sessions per skill for $247, though start dates were listed as to be announced when we checked. TST Prep also offers a free 2026 TOEFL mock test. TST Prep does not advertise official ETS questions, so pair it with ETS TestReady for an official test.
