In this episode of the TOEFL Speaking Prep Podcast, we dive deep into a topic that impacts students around the world—the relationship between income inequality, anxiety, and academic performance. How does growing up in a society with a wide gap between the rich and the poor influence test anxiety and grades?

Join us as we break down recent research findings, uncover surprising links, and explore how systemic factors like school resources, access to qualified teachers, and economic stressors contribute to student success. This thought-provoking episode challenges the way we think about test anxiety and reveals how much larger social and economic issues shape educational outcomes.

What can be done to close the gap? How can we foster environments where all students can thrive, regardless of their background?
