How it works

How Write an Email practice works

1

Get a realistic scenario

Prompts mirror the 2026 task: request information, respond to a problem, or make arrangements.

2

Write your reply under the timer

The same 7-minute clock as the real test. ETS sets no word count for this task — our 80-120 word target is pacing guidance that leaves time to check your work.

3

Get a 0-5 rubric score

AI feedback highlights grammar mistakes, tone problems, and missing task points, based on your response.

4

Study the rewrite

A higher-scoring version of your own email shows exactly what a stronger answer looks like.

The Write an Email practice screen

The scenario, your reply, the word counter, and rubric feedback side by side.

FAQ

Write an Email questions, answered

Write an Email is the second task in the 2026 TOEFL Writing section. You read a short scenario and write an email in about 7 minutes; ETS publishes no required word count — the prompt tells you to write as much as you can. Responses are scored on a 0-5 rubric.

The rubric looks at whether you completed every part of the task, used an appropriate tone, organized the email clearly, and controlled grammar and vocabulary. Feedback on Reach120 is organized around those same criteria.

It is a Reach120 practice target, not an ETS rule — the official prompt simply says to write as much as you can in the 7 minutes. Going far under usually means missing task points; going far over eats the checking time that catches easy mistakes. Practicing with the counter builds the right pacing instinct.

Reading and Listening practice, sample answers, practice topics, and all blog guides are free. Unlimited AI-scored Writing and Speaking practice needs a paid plan: $29 every month or $59 every three months, cancel any time — each renews automatically until you cancel. Pricing is shown on this page, and there is no signup wall to see it.

Yes. The TOEFL Writing section changed on January 21, 2026 to three task types: Build a Sentence, Write an Email, and Academic Discussion. Reach120 practice follows the official ETS task descriptions for that format. Our scores are practice estimates, never official results.
