PTE Speaking Section – Tips and Tricks-

Here are some tips to help you prepare for the speaking part of the PTE exam:-

Read Aloud

• Rising your tone at the beginning and falling tone at the end of the sentence will make the sentences sound authentic.
• If you feel that you have made a mistake, keep speaking and do not stop.
• From 1 day of preparation, practice connecting with different tongue every day till the day of examination.

Repeat Sentence :

• Listen with closed eyes and memorize the sentence.
• There is no beep at the end, so start speaking only after the clip ends.
• If you can’t manage to remember the entire sentence, at least pay attention to the keywords and repeat them.

Describe Image

• Start with words like illustrate, elucidates, depicts, etc.
• Notice whether it is bar-chart, Line-graph or pie-chart. The line graph has a ‘timeline’, the pie chart has a comparison of ‘slices’ and a bar chart.
• Use the following words – to the left, right, up, down / down, up, up, foreground, background, etc.
• Try finishing in 30-35 seconds and do not leave incompletely recorded sentences.
