PTE Writing Tips
For writing essay I used E2 language format and applying what I learned from Ielts. Sa intro, sa 1st sentence ni restate ko lang yung question using my own words. Then sa 2nd sentence if one sided lang yung question, I give summary of the reasons ( 2 reasons only). Example, if ang essay is about importance of computers (one sided), eto 2nd sentence ko. Computers are valuable resources as they (1st reason) aid in learning and are (2nd reason) used to communicate with others. Then sa 3rd sentence sasabihin ko para pampahaba-- In this essay, I shall discuss my point of view by giving points and examples about the topic.
Then sa 2nd paragraph, elaborate ko na ang 1St reason. Mga 2 sentences na magsupport sa 1st reason, like if yung 1st reason ko is aid in learning, expand ko ang topic by answering how computers aid in learning,etc. Usually yung reason mo convert mo by asking how, what, when, or who. Tapos sa 3rd sentence, I state examples. Pwede ka din mag add pa ng 4th sentence parang isummarize mo lang ang 2nd paragraph.
Sa 3rd paragraph discuss naman ang 3rd reason same sa ginawa sa 2nd par.
4Th paragraph 1st sentence conclusion, then 2nd sentence recommendation.
If 2 sided naman yung intro pwede mo gamitin yung nasa template like kina Heprex na samples. Then yung 2nd par yung kabilang side, then yung 3rd paragraph yung other side. Tapos same last paragraph.
If medyo nahihirapan ka sa mga ideas, research ka dito sa forum ng mga recent topics. Tapos based dun sa topic reasearch ka anong pwedeng maging points and reasons para may idea ka na ano ilalagay mo sa essay.
Ang key talaga sa writing is dapat marami ka ideas. If nahihirapan ka mag construct ng idea try to research as much as possible. Google mo yung mga common or recent topics on pte writing tapos may mga sample questions dun,, then research mo ano possible answers para sa actual exam may idea kana ano isasagot. Tapos dpat familiarize mo mga connectors (like moreover, therefore, for instance, etc) kasi mas mataas ang grade kapag medyo complex ang sentence na ginagamit mo kesa simple sentences lang.
For summarize written text strategy ko is to first get ano main topic. Then analyze what important points were given, may nangyari ba? If meron ano ang nangyari, kelan nangyari? ano at para kanino ang purpose? Usually kasi sa mga paragraphs naka detail lang pero yung point lang naman dun is parang dinedescribe lang yung main topic. If you can answer who/what, when, how and why about the topic pwede mo na pagdugtungin yung ideas mo thru connectors and form a sentence. If you will have multiple paragraphs, summarize mo muna per paragraph then summarize mo ulit lahat in one sentence
Another tip also in writing as much as possible do not repeat the same words. If you dont have much stored knowledge about synonyms okay lang. Practice and Research is the key. Kaya malaki ang help sa akin yung pag research sa mga common or recent topics kasi while practicing pwede akong mghanap ng synonyms then mas madali ko syang ma recall sa actual exam kasi nagawa ko na sya before. Tapos if meron kayong word na ma encounter na parang hirap kayo mag elaborate, google nyo din anong synonym or phrases na pwedeng same meaning ng word. Share ko yung nilista kong mga synonyms na possible na magagamit sa mga essay kasi minsan these are the topics commonly asked.

Dear Mr *********
The Department of Home Affairs has received your feedback on 20 February 2018. Feedback on our processes and services is important and we thank you for bringing this matter to our attention.
From 14 March 2017, we began publishing current global processing times for the majority of visa subclasses and citizenship services. The new processing time information gives an indication of the time it will likely take to finalise a complete application. Global visa and citizenship processing times are updated monthly, providing an indicative timeframe for processing applications. Two processing times are displayed, indicating how long it is taking to finalise 75 and 90 per cent of applications submitted globally.
You can view processing times on our website at www.homeaffairs.gov.au/about/access-accountability/service-standards/global-visa-citizenship-processing-times.
We do not respond to status-related enquiries that fall within the published processing times. You should wait until after the processing time has elapsed before contacting us. If you lodged your application online, you can monitor the status of your application through ImmiAccount.
Once you have lodged your application you can expect us to:
· undertake checks, as required, to confirm that the information and documents provided are truthful and accurate
· finalise the application as quickly as possible and in accordance with Australian law.
To ensure your application is completed within the expected timeframe, make sure that you:
· submit a complete application, including all necessary supporting documents
· provide any additional documents or information we request within the specified time, or tell us immediately if this is not possible. (Remember to check your junk folder, as our correspondence may auto-filter into spam).
· keep contact with the case officer or processing office to a minimum, to allow processing of applications to proceed as quickly as possible.
Note: Applications are assessed on a case-by-case basis. Some individual circumstances may cause applications to fall outside the published processing times.
Your correspondence will be sent to the relevant processing area for information.
We hope this information has been helpful to you.
Yours sincerely
