    @rondi I think sa Read Aloud I have improved na sa mga yun but sa retell lecture medyo mahirao kasi nahfofocus ako sa sasabihin. Baka dun ako bumababa. Thanks sa tips. I'll practice more..

    @filipinacpa thanks sa tips
    I took the exam today, unlike sa unang test center na pinagexaman ko mas ok ang facilities sa test center kung saan nagretake ako. Mas ok ang playback this time, mas dinig ang boses ko. I hope nagimprove ako compared sa last exam ko. Hoping na nakuha ko na target score ko. Praying.....

    @imL mas mataas magbigay ng score sa PTE sa writing. Dati sa IELTS hindi ako umaabot sa 7, pero dito sa PTE sa last exam ko naka 90 ako sa enabling skills ko sa writing. Mas madadali ang topic na gagawan ng essay sa PTE compared sa IELTS. Dito sa link na ito, merong mga list ng topics na puede lumabas sa PTE, nakita ko lang din ito dito sa forum.

    @kholoudmanlucu Hindi ko na masyado inintindi yung vocabulary. Pansin ko kasi sa practice ko, pag masyado ko iniintindi yung words, mas lalo ako nauutal. Ginagamit ko lang yung mga words na commonly used. Medyo mabilis ako magsalita, pero I make sure na clear and understandable pa rin kahit mabilis. And may mga naging mistakes din ako, kaya di ko rin inexpect yung ganung score sa speaking. Meron ngang describe image na di ko natapos sinasabi ko, namatay na yung recording kasi lagpas na sa time. Pero basta tuloy tuloy lang ang salita ko kahit may mistakes.

    @vanezzaveera Thanks! Sa 1 ako nakaupo, ung medyo nakahiwalay na computer. Nauna ako nagstart and natapos. Kinabahan nga ako kasi nung nagstart nako, meron umuubo-ubo na medyo malakas sa mga nag-eequipment check pa lang, eh nagrerecord na yung sakin. Buti naman hindi na-capture ng recording yun. Ikaw san ka banda?

    I got L90 R80 W80 S78 dyan sa Bright Centre Ortigas before pa sila mag close. Ang ginawa ko lang inilayo ko yung mic sa bibig ko hanggang maging clear yung voice sa pag playback ng recording. Ganun din ginawa ko nung nag take ako sa Pearson Makati for 20 points.

    @kholoudmanlucu reading: focus sa reorder paragraphs at fill in the blanks..
    Read aloud ka magfocus kasi malaki points nun and affected scores ng reading and speaking altogether..
    Speaking, use template sa retell lecture, describe image.. Kaya mo yan.. Don't lose hope :)>-.. Would you mind if you can post your enabling skills?

    @kholoudmanlucu

    Eto lang sinunod kong format.

    Describe Image

    Intro:

    "This {line/bar/pie} {graph/chart} shows/describes {title} from {year to year}. "

    Body/Details:

    "In {year}, {item 1} has {slightly/gradually/dramatically} {increased/decreased/risen/fallen} from {value} to {value} in {year}."

    Summary/Conclusion/Source

    "In summary, the {year/item} has the highest {value} overall".

    OR state the source pag di ko alam conclusion or pag may time pa: "This graph was from {source}."


    Retell Lecture

    Intro:

    "The main topic of the lecture is {topic}. The speaker says..."

    Yan lang, tas nag salita na ko kahit ano na nadinig ko sa lecture.

    @kholoudmanlucu try to dont have an accent when you speak.. Practice ng practice sa reading magazines or english news.. Try mo gayahin newscasters.. Intonation is very important and pauses during read aloud. Practice. Fluency, articulation of words to.. moderate pace lang dapat sa pagsasalita, baka di maintndihan ng computer pag mabilis... Kaya mo yan..

    @vher mas madali yung actual. Hindi ko binasa lahat ng nasa mcmillan kasi feeling ko masyadong advanced - 10 points lang naman yung habol ko noon.
