Hello po! Hope everyone’s safe and well. Maraming salamat po sa lahat ng help and guidance. Share ko lang po experience ko and some tips po sa PTE.
Review materials na ginamit ko:
• E2Language Youtube para po sa PTE background and tips
• SonnyEnglish Youtube para po sa tips and tricks sa Describe Image
• APEUni para sa practice for all
• Carreercoves Youtube for Repeat Sentence
• PTE.Tools for Read Aloud
Speaking:
Read Aloud – wag po masyado bilisan ang pag-basa. Maganda po gamitin ang 25s para ifamiliarize and ipractice ipronounce lalo yung mga unfamiliar words. If may mali nasabi, tuloy tuloy parin po sa pag-basa at wag ipahalata na may mali. Yung PTE.Tools meron po siya function na nadedetermine nya anong words ang napronounce kaya ok po siya for practice.
Repeat Sentence – practice is the key po ditto. Mapapansin nyo nalang po na habang tumatagal mas mahaba po ang set of words na kaya sabihin.
Describe Image & Retell lecture – ginamit ko po ang binigay din po at nishare ditto tapos inupdate ko lang po ng unti.

Writing:
- Summarize Written text – compound complex po ang ni-practice ko na gawin using semi-colon (; ). Before po ako magre-word, minemake sure ko muna na constructed na yung sentence.
Connectors: FANBOYS (for, and nor, but, yet, so) to make the sentence compound
Conjunctions (not sure if tama po an tawag): FMTOH(furthermore, moreover, therefore, otherwise, hence, however, etc) to make the sentence complex
Ex: The boy, who is in senior highschool, studied every after school hours, and because of this, he won the competition; therefore, the school principal awarded him with a scholarship for next year.
- Essay – try to include ng mga examples sa essay to back-up yung argument kahit po hindi totoo yung example (For example, the research shows that __________ ).
Paragraph 1 – Introduction (agree or disagree, etc)
Paragraph 2 – Argument 1 with example
Paragraph 3 – Argument 2 with example
Paragraph 4 – Conclusion
Reading:
Re-order paragraph – maganda po ang video ni E2language po po sa technique
Reading Fill-in the blanks – try po to determine ano ang dapat nasa blank, if verb, noun, adjective, adverb. This will help trim down ang choices. Pag hindi sure, trinatry ko sabihin yung sentence using yung natirang options
Read and Writing Fill-in the blanks - same po sa RFIB. Nakatulong din po na familiar sa collocation.
Listening:
Summarize Spoken text – ginamit ko po ang template sa Re-tell lecture.
Write from dictation – practice is the key din po dito. If may hindi sure lalo na sa tense ng verb, basahin po yung sentence/phrase na naitype, makakahelp po ito to determine ano ang namiss na verb or word.
Sana po makahelp. 🙂 Godbless po!
