TEACHING STRUCTURE AND WRITTEN EXPRESSION OF TOEFL BASED ON FINITE AND NON FINITE APPROACH

Abstract

Some problems which are tested in structure and written expression section of TOEFL are verb forms. In some cases, testee is often confused to decide whether the sentences or clauses have verb or not. Futhermore, testers often give more than one verb form to deceive the testee. Therefore, finite and non finite approach is necessary. The aim of this article is to show how finite and non finite can be applied to analyze the problems of verb forms in structure and written expression section of TOEFL. The assumption is that this approach is helpful to overcome the verb form problems in structure and written section of TOEFL, for finite and non finite helps us to know verb form functions contextually.Key words: Finite, Nonfinite Approach
