LỜI GIỚI THIỆU
Các bạn thân mến!
Chắc hẳn với dân luyện thi Toeic thì cuốn 600 essential words for the Toeic được coi
như là cuốn sách gối đầu mà bạn nào ôn thi Toeic cũng nên có. Nội dung của cuốn sách
được chia thành 50 bài với 50 chủ đề từ vựng khác, mỗi bài gồm 12 từ vựng rất hữu ích
và hay gặp trong các kỳ thi Toeic.
Tuy nhiên, đã có rất nhiều bạn cảm thấy nản lòng khi học quyển này mặc dù nó được
thiết kế khá công phu và tỉ mỉ. Nguyên nhân chủ yếu là do cuốn sách này được viết bằng
tiếng Anh, nên không có nghĩa tiếng Việt cho từng từ. Hơn nữa, các từ mới trong cuốn
sách này lại không có phiên âm và file nghe cho từng từ. Thấy được sự khó khăn khi học,
ban quản trị fan page TOEIC BOOK STORE chúng tôi đã biên soạn để khắc phục
những phần còn thiếu này của cuốn sách. Cuốn 600 essential words phiên bản cải tiến
được biên soạn gồm 100 trang bổ sung những phần còn thiếu của cuốn gốc gồm:
❶ Nghĩa tiếng Việt của từng từ mới trong bài
❷ Có file nghe riêng cho từng từ giọng bản ngữ, giúp các bạn làm quen với các từ mới 1
cách dễ nhất (Sách được kèm theo miễn phí 1 cd file nghe các từ - 50 bài)
❸ Phiên âm các từ chuẩn theo từ điển Oxford
Hy vọng với phần bổ sung thêm này, các bạn có thể dễ dàng học các từ mới cho bài thi
Toeic. Xin chân thành cám ơn !

LỜI GIỚI THIỆU
Các bạn thân mến!
Chắc hẳn với dân luyện thi Toeic thì cuốn 600 essential words for the Toeic được coi
như là cuốn sách gối đầu mà bạn nào ôn thi Toeic cũng nên có. Nội dung của cuốn sách
được chia thành 50 bài với 50 chủ đề từ vựng khác, mỗi bài gồm 12 từ vựng rất hữu ích
và hay gặp trong các kỳ thi Toeic.
Tuy nhiên, đã có rất nhiều bạn cảm thấy nản lòng khi học quyển này mặc dù nó được
thiết kế khá công phu và tỉ mỉ. Nguyên nhân chủ yếu là do cuốn sách này được viết bằng
tiếng Anh, nên không có nghĩa tiếng Việt cho từng từ. Hơn nữa, các từ mới trong cuốn
sách này lại không có phiên âm và file nghe cho từng từ. Thấy được sự khó khăn khi học,
ban quản trị fan page TOEIC BOOK STORE chúng tôi đã biên soạn để khắc phục
những phần còn thiếu này của cuốn sách. Cuốn 600 essential words phiên bản cải tiến
được biên soạn gồm 100 trang bổ sung những phần còn thiếu của cuốn gốc gồm:
❶ Nghĩa tiếng Việt của từng từ mới trong bài
❷ Có file nghe riêng cho từng từ giọng bản ngữ, giúp các bạn làm quen với các từ mới 1
cách dễ nhất (Sách được kèm theo miễn phí 1 cd file nghe các từ - 50 bài)
❸ Phiên âm các từ chuẩn theo từ điển Oxford
Hy vọng với phần bổ sung thêm này, các bạn có thể dễ dàng học các từ mới cho bài thi
Toeic. Xin chân thành cám ơn !
