Hello,
Just want to share some tips on my journey to reach the superior score. A quick background, I REALLY hate English ever since. Since high-school, college, kahit nag ttrabaho ako. I can communicate naman (in meetings, visitors, conferences, etc), pero I hate thinking or exams related to English, like kelangan mo sundin yung Subject-verb-object agreement, mga ganyan at atbp. At ngayon, si English naman ang umayaw sakin. Hahahaha medyo malalim din ako magtagalog. So ang ginawa ko, during my first take, ang preparation ko is to straighten my tongue. Keep speaking in a continuous pace, tuloy tuloy. So ang training ko noon dito is to rap “The way you lie” by Eminem, at siguraduhin ko na naiintindihan ni google. And got the proficient scores on my first take. Nag try pa ng isa nung January, pero di pinalad. After nun, nag pahinga ako and focus on wedding preps. At nag start ang road to Superior last June. Eto tips and advices ko sa iba na target kumuha for the first time at sa mga nag e-aim ng Superior scores din.
<b class="Bold">Speaking</b>
<b class="Bold">Read Aloud</b>
Dami nag tatanong sakin dahil consistent ang scores ko sa speaking. Sa dami ng take ko, isa lang ang consistent sa akin, mabilis ako mag salita. Yes, speed is the key. I normally finish the passage on half bar, minsan wala pa nga sa kalahati tapos na ako. While reading, I point my finger sa screen and follow kung ano binabasa ko. Check the news, movies, at iba pang English countries, dapat ganun din ang pace natin pag nagbabasa o nag sasalita. Hindi natin binabasa to, para maintindihan ng bata, tinetest tayo dito for Oral fluency, Pronunciation. Malaki impact nito sa reading at speaking scores. Focus kayo dito. As for practice naman, di naman masakit sa oras natin ang magbasa ng isang passage araw araw, 2 mins lang to. Nag babasa ako ng articles from sciencedaily, kase that’s what interest me. Make sure to find your interest. A simple tip dito sa read aloud, is to smile and be positive while reading. Speak confidently.
Wag mag ummm, ahhhh.
No false start.
Avoid stuttering, kung nag stutter man kayo, move on. Wag mo na ulitin.
<b class="Bold">Repeat Sentence</b>
Lage ako namo-moblema dito. Hirap ako dito. Lage 5 out of 10 nakukuha ko dito. Tried other techniques, like writing the first letter of the word. Pero hirap pa din ako dito. The best for me is to practice, dami sa youtube nito. Hanap kayo ng best way nyo to remember kung ano yung sentence. Try to understand din, it will help you remember it. Gayahin nyo yung way kung pano sinabi, yung pag stress ng words, at pauses. Try your best to remember at least 50% of the words, it will give you 2 points. Again:
Wag mag ummm, ahhhh.
No false start.
Avoid stuttering, kung nag stutter man kayo, move on. Wag mo na ulitin.
<b class="Bold">Describe Image</b>
I use a template dito, simula nung unang take pa lang. eto template ko.
PIE: The pie graph projected on the screen is the presentation of variables from research entitled ________. It is subdivided into ________ different portions. The largest area is ________ with ________ while the smallest area is ________ with ________. It is surprising to see that ________ is the second largest area with ________. Overall, this graph seems accurate and concise and can be used as a reference for future studies.
LINE/BAR: The line/bar graph projected on the screen is the presentation of variables from research entitled ________. The horizontal line represents the ________ while the vertical line represents the ________. The highest sector is ________ with ________ while the lowest sector is ________ with ________. It is surprising to see that ________ is the second highest sector with ________. Overall, this graph seems accurate and concise and can be used as a reference for future studies.
TABLE: The table projected on the screen is the presentation of variables from research entitled ________. It is subdivided into ________columns and ________ rows. The highest sector is ________ with ________ while the lowest sector is ________ with ________. It is surprising to see that ________ is the second highest sector with ________. Overall, this graph seems accurate and concise and can be used as a reference for future studies.
Pede sya ng paulit ulit.
Pero kung bago pa lang kayo nag sisimula mag review or mag practice ng template. I suggest you use @batman ‘s template.

Mas maganda sya, it contains important collocations at mas maganda ang pag deliver. Tinry ko praktisin yang bago, kaso mas nasapuso ko na yung luma, at mas nagugulo pag deliver ko, kase lumalabas sa pag deliver ko yung lumang template.
IMPORTANT: ISAPUSO nyo ang template, dapat maging komportable kayo sa kanya, kahit anong lumabas. Kaya nyo isingit ang details sa template. Template contributes to OF, and Pronunciation. So kahit konti lang masabi nyo na details sa image, punong puno kayo ng fillers para mabawi yung OF at pronunciation. Pacing is the same, speed is the key. Wag nyo hayaan mag suffer ang OF at PRON dahil gusto nyo mag labas ng content from the image.
Pano pag picture lang o process ang image na lumabas? – kaya sinabi ko na isapuso nyo ang template para kaya nyo mag improv. eto ang mga sample ng nangyayari sa kin:
*****Kunwari sa comparison ng line graph.
The line graph projected on the screen is the presentation of variables from research entitled blah blah blah.
The blue line represents the blah1.
The red line represents the blah2.
The vertical line represents the blahline1.
The horizontal line represents the blahline2.
There is an increase/decrease trend of blah1 from year1 to year 2.
Overall, this graph seems accurate and consice and can be used as a reference for future studies.
*****Pag picture naman, ganun din
The picture projected on the screen is the presentation of variables from research entitled blah blah blah.
Firstly, we can see here (nakasulat sa pic)
Then, we can also see (nakasulat ulit sa pic)
Overall, this picture seems accurate and consice and can be used as a reference for future studies.
*****Pag process naman, ganun din
The process diagram projected on the screen is the presentation of variables from research entitled blah blah blah.
Firstly, we need to search for music. *kunwari yung process pag download ng music
Then, after searching, blah blha, *paikot, sabihin yung mga nakasulat.
Overall, this diagram seems accurate and consice and can be used as a reference for future studies.
Again:
Wag mag ummm, ahhhh.
No false start.

Practice, practice, practice.
