3 Tips you Need to Know About The PTE Speaking Section
Looking for some (easy) extra marks in the PTE Speaking? Then the following 3 tips for the PTE speaking section, describe image, repeat sentence and answer short questions will get you great marks…
How to Describe an Image?
- Think about what you want to say. You only have 40 seconds to do PTE speaking describe image and if messed up, there is no way back. So to hit the high scores, you should only include the main features of the graph and any anomalies. Therefore, DO NOT waste time talking about the X axis and Y axis. This will score 1/5 for content. To improve your PTE speaking score, you can use out our 4 Sentence Model.
Repeating Sentence for PTE Speaking?
- Saying nothing, means score nothing… But saying just ‘anything’, will get you at least 1 point! Now, imagine there are six repeat sentence questions in your test. That could be six speaking marks, all gone. To get a high score in PTE, every point counts. Anybody who has experienced the PTE test will know that the room can get very noisy and shy people will lose marks. No one is listening to you. So don’t be shy, speak up! And remember, practice makes progress.
Answer Short Questions?
- It’s funny because, even though you are focused on speaking skill, PTE Short Answer Questions are general knowledge questions. However, the good news is these questions are often repeated and easy to remember! To get more information about how Answer Short Questions are marked, click here.
