Toeic speaking test

I am interested in TOEIC speaking test, because I am going to take this test. So I investigate it this time.

1.     The background of speaking test’s appearance

Main companies require you to submit the score in TOEIC speaking test.
Because main companies actually want their employees to fluently speak English with a foreign buyer.
For now, we estimate the speaking ability through reading and listening in TOEIC test.
But, this is a good way to estimate your speaking ability. It is TOEIC speaking test.
ETS that made TOEIC reading and listening makes TOEIC speaking test with testing and checking information about English used in the world.

3.     What does TOEIC speaking test estimate? 
1.    You can speak English with Person who is native in English or not native but non-native who can speak English fluently.  
2. You can make conversation for daily life or business for example purchase , introduce and order etc.

      TOEIC Speaking is constructed with computer-based test way.
Not you write your answer in computer but you should record your voice through ETS
After test, you can feed back through CBT that is standard and affective way.
