    hello... I know marami ditong naiadvise na about sa speaking, but I still haven't improved according dun sa scored practice test ko...

    In my exam last dec21:
    Listening - 76
    Reading - 83
    Speaking - 66
    Writing - 90

    Enabling skills
    Grammar - 79
    Oral Fluency - 61
    Pronunciation - 55
    Spelling - 90
    Vocabulary - 65
    Written Discourse - 90

    Tapos sa scored test ko PTEA SetA:
    Listening - 79
    Reading - 74
    Speaking - 67
    Writing - 79

    Enabling skills
    Grammar - 47
    Oral Fluency - 72
    Pronunciation - 55
    Spelling - 69
    Vocabulary - 90
    Written Discourse - 90

    I think kaya naman na ung LRW na subtests, but my problem talaga is speaking. Jan sa scored test ko, I already used a template for Describe image and Retell lecture. Although ang nakita ko talaga na fault ko during recording ko is, I stuttered for some words, paused for some thinking of some thoughts, and I can't understand that much during repeat sentence, pero sa practice, kayang kaya ko ung repeat sentence. especially sa retell lecture and ung repeat sentence ko... Tips? huhu

    At, meron pa ba kaung site para mapractice ung repeat sentence and retell lecture?

    @psalms5110 Malaking impact ang stuttering and long pause sa score so kelangan mo talaga yan ma.overcome. You know what, both sa practice sets ko A and B nsa 46 something ang Speaking ko but I could not back out sa scheduled exam ko sa January 5 considering na I am from the province and nka.schedule na ang flight ko. So what I did was a week before, mga Dec. 23 yun, bumili ako ng headphone sa CD R king, yung tg.P100+ kasi I've been using iphone earphone lng sa scored tests. And I bought sound card kasi separate yung plug for mic and audio e isang butas lng ang laptop ko. May factor din yun.

    Tapos bumili ulit ako ng Gold Kit kasi nga naubos ko na yung 2 hahah.. But the sad thing is nauna pang lumabas ang result ng PTE exam kesa dun sa practice test A na gi.exam ko Dec. 28 -sarado daw cla for the holidays. It turned out nka.70+ ako sa Speaking sa practice test.

    Bottomline sa Speaking - talk and talk wag ka talaga mgpahalata na ng.iisip ka pa kasi mg.sound robotic ka nyan in addition sa long pause. Also it helped sa akin na hndi ko na lang inisip na nirerecord ang sinasabi ko ng.focus na lang ako sa task at hand shutting everything else pati mga ksama ko sa room, parang ako lng ang ngpka.OA dun sa room at that time, sigaw na kung sigaw with all the intonation na prang ngkukuwento ng tsismis sa kausap. ayun mahaba na pala sorry heheh

    @psalms5110 based on your enabling score, pronounciation un consistent na mababa. maybe you can use typetalker, check mo kung recognized un words mo. like ako un word DATA, pronounced ko yan before as (deyta) pero di sya mabasa ever ng talktyper so pinalitan ko ng (Da-ta). kung nakatemplate ka na, important na lahat ng academic words mo ay recognized ng computer. mukang ok naman un fluency mo based sa enabling skills. un grammar mejo bumaba sa mock
