‘After only two months of using the 

MyEnglishLab the pass rate in their TOEIC 

mock exams has increased from 28% to 

61%, and all except two students have 

improved their grades. In fact the two 

failing students hadn’t worked on the 

MyEnglishLab regularly and I was able to 

show how inactive they had been compared 

to the rest of the class.’
