Get Your 2026 TOEFL® Speaking Score Now

A credit is a SpeechRater scoring token. Use credits to score your TOEFL Speaking responses with ETS's SpeechRater® scoring engine.  

Spending one credit triggers a full SpeechRater analysis of one complete TOEFL Speaking task.

In other words, it costs 1 credit to score your 7 responses to the Listen & Repeat task. It also costs 1 credit to score your 4 responses to the Interview task.

Tasks must be completed to be scored.

Example:

- You complete a Listen & Repeat task. If you want that task (i.e. 7 responses) analyzed and scored by SpeechRater, you spend one credit and get scores back for the task and each of the 7 responses.

Yes. If you already have credits on My Speaking Score, they work in the new format.

Note: In the 2026 format, your credits actually go further.

In the 2026 format, one credit scores an entire task, which includes multiple SpeechRater® scores.
‍
That means you get more scoring and feedback per credit than in 2025.

Example:

- In 2025, 1 credit gives you 1 SpeechRater® score.
- In 2026, 1 credit gives you multiple SpeechRater® scores for the same task.
‍
And your credits never expire.

Extremely fast and accurate. My Speaking Score integrates with ETS's SpeechRater® technology, the same scoring engine used in the official TOEFL.

SpeechRater® is highly accurate, offering you a realistic assessment of your TOEFL Speaking abilities and highlighting areas for improvement. Scores come back in seconds.

Absolutely. Repeating tests or tasks can help you track your progress and refine specific skills. It's easy to revisit old tests and re-take them.

Each time you submit a new response, you receive new feedback, allowing you to focus on areas that need the most improvement.

LLMs like ChatGPT are insufficient for TOEFL Speaking prep because they do not have access to the core signals that determine the score.

TOEFL Speaking is not scored on ideas, vocabulary choice, or grammatical correctness alone. It is scored on how the speech signal behaves over time, using an automated system with explicit thresholds.

Most LLM-based workflows and "free" apps operate on text. You either type/paste an answer or the system converts your audio into text and evaluates the words. Once speech is reduced to text, critical scoring information disappears.

LLMs cannot reliably measure speaking rate stability, pause frequency and duration, sustained speech, or timing under pressure. They do not see hesitation patterns, rhythm breakdowns, or delivery inconsistency in a way that aligns with TOEFL scoring logic.

As a result, LLM feedback is biased toward what sounds good on paper. It overweights vocabulary and grammar and underweights delivery. This creates false confidence. Responses can receive positive feedback while still triggering hidden penalties in the actual scoring system.

👋 That's me, the founder of My Speaking Score.

I’m not anti-teacher. I spent 15 years teaching English in South Korea. I married a teacher. I volunteer at my daughter’s school. Most of my friends are teachers. I genuinely love teachers.

I just believe deeply in self-guided learning. That’s why I know you can prepare for the TOEFL without hiring someone like me.
