Cracking the PTE Academic in 2 weeks time

Cracking the PTE Academic in 2 weeks time

If you have 2 weeks time for your next PTE exam and if you can devote approximately 4 hrs per day for the preparation, we would suggest you to start reading a novel (300-400 pages) online on your area of interest. You need to read it aloud -- line by line and page by page. This will help you to tackle questions from the Speaking/Reading sections. 

1.      Use https://dictation.io/ to check if the spelling of the speech-converted-text is exactly as it should be. This is the best way to improve your pronunciation.

2.      After finishing a chapter, make sure you write the summary of it in less than 300 words before starting the next chapter. Do take the help of a dictionary and prepare a document containing all the unfamiliar words and their meanings, page-wise, by typing everything on your own (for the Writing section).

3.      Try watching a couple of English movies every week or try to follow the Cricket/Football (or your favorite sport) commentary in your leisure time (for the Listening section). 

4.      Simulate exam-like conditions and do practice 3-4 sample tests (available online) few days before the actual exam day, and you'll definitely find yourself more confident. You can go through the following youtube video to know the 1st take on PTE by one of our trainers (Vishal Jaiswal): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v_Li2ifFVo8.

We know it would be difficult and boring, but the pain that you'd go through in these 15 days would vanish all at once when you would get your desired score.  

We conduct one-to-one classes for the PTE aspirants, online via Skype or in-person in Melbourne, at an affordable tuition fee (just 49 AUDs per hour). More details here @ https://www.PTEversity.com/single-post/PTEversity-Courses

Opt for any of our courses and learn from people who have themselves scored 79+ in all the four sections of the PTE. You would be provided individual attention from our PTE experts at a pace and timing suitable to you.

PTE Reading -- FILL IN THE BLANKS -- Scoring Technique

PTE Reading – Fill in the Blanks - Scoring Technique This is one of the easiest topics to score in relatively much lesser time in the PTE Academic. You will be given a paragraph comprising of 3-5 sentences approximately with a few missing words, generally 4-5 in number. Few words will be placed at the bottom of the screen inside separate boxes and all you are supposed to do is to drag and drop correct words to correct place in the paragraph. The number of words provided for you to respond (6-8) would generally be more in number just to create some confusion. Ensure you fill in all the blanks as there is no negative time for this type of question. Sample Paragraph : Science blogs serves a dual purpose. First, they connect scientists to each other, _____ (1) ______ as modern day intellectual salons. Even _____ (2) ______ scientific papers are now beginning to _____ (3) ______ blogs as references. Second, they connect scientists to the general _____ (4) ______, offerin

Getting top scores in PTE or IELTS in the 1st attempt itself

Image
Hi Everyone!! I thought of sharing my experience at a high level on how I managed to obtain a so-called ‘superior’ score (79+ each) in the  Pearson Academic Test of English (PTE) . English language tests have been a nightmare and a decider for many visa aspirants who wish to fulfil their dreams of living, studying or working in Australia/NZ.  I was never someone who had participated in a lot of debates during my school and college days, and so I knew that the biggest challenge for me was to do well in the Speaking section. My PTE score (one and only attempt) 90, 90, 81 and 81 out of 90 each in Listening, Speaking, Reading and Writing sections respectively. My overall score of 86 out of 90 in PTE is equivalent to getting the highest band score of 9 in IELTS. Appeared for the PTE Academic on the 15 th  of March 2017. Why PTE? PTE is getting popular especially among people who intend to migrate to Australia from other countries. Intended migrants are

PTE Speaking -- DESCRIBE IMAGE -- Scoring Technique

Image
PTE Speaking -- Describe Image -- Scoring Technique You will see a diagram/pie-chart/bar-graph/map etc for 25 seconds. The trick is to understand the image and speak selectively about it within 40 seconds. Be selective. You are not supposed to speak all that you see in 40 seconds. Pick a few key things to speak about, and leave out the rest.  Speak clearly and at a decent pace. Start with describing the heading/subject in one sentence. It would easily take up 4 to 5 seconds if you just rephrase the title at the top of every question. Include what the x-axis and the y-axis represent if it is a bar graph or a line graph. Highlight 4 to 5 major points from the image which are relevant and clear, one after the other. This should easily take the next 20-22 seconds. At last, conclude your speech within another 5 seconds. Try to finish by the 37th or 38th second and stop before their timer actually stops (exactly 40 seconds). Even if you say s
