Eto na yung mga na-share ko na kay @michel_75. Baka di na tama yung pagkakagroup ko ng exam parts. Haha. Kinuha ko lang kasi from our convo.
Kahapon exam tapos kaninang madaling araw yung result. 90 nakuha ko sa lahat. Medyo nagulat ako. Hahaha.
Anyway, hmmm, bumili ako ng gold package set sa pearsons. Very helpful para masanay ka sa pace ng exam.
Speaking
Sa testing ng microphone mo i-set ang lakas ng boses mo. Kung sa pagtest eh understandable na siya, i-maintain mo na yun. May mga kasabayan kasi akong halos sumigaw na. Eh baka malunod lang ng lakas ng boses yung sinasabi mo kaya kalma lang. Tapos pag may mga napapasigaw na, shini-shield ko ng kamay ko yung mic para di makuha yung boses ng sumisigaw.
Basta magsalita ka lang nang magsalita kahit walang kwenta. Hahaha. Wag kang mag-uh, uhm, etc.
Sa repeat sentence, okay lang kahit di mo makuha lahat. Di ko na-perfect yung akin. Basta tuloy tuloy ka lang magsalita at sunod sunod yung words.
Yung format daw kasi pag describe image 1) subject ng image, 2) trend, 3) conclusion. Minsan wala akong conclusion. Haha.
Reading
Hmmm. Wala ako masyadong masabi dito kasi sanay na akong magbasa sa nature ng work ko. Siguro practice ka lang nang practice dito.
Writing
Dito ako nadale sa ielts dati. Haha. Kaya nag-pte ako.
Sa essay, nag-iimbento ako ng facts to support my argument. Hahaha! Kunyare may research, experiment or poll na related sa topic at yung conclusion supports my argument. Nakakahaba rin siya ng write up. Mga 70 to 80 words din ang kakainin niya. Wag ka maingay about this. Baka bawiin score ko. Hahaha!
Tapos, make sure na connected yung thought ng sentences. Gamit ka ng therefore, so, hence, thus, etc. Next paragraph ka na kapag nabuo mo na yung thought sa isang paragraph.
Sa summarize written text, wag na masyadong mahaba. 70 words ang limit pero kahit hanggang 35 ka lang. Nakuha ko yang tip na yan sa youtube. Hahaha. Mukhang gumana.
Sa summarize spoken text. Hmmm. Basta tinatype ko yung tingin ko important tapos edit edit mo na lang pagkatapos nung recording. Di ko rin hinabaan. Hahaha.
Tapos dun sa may select word to complete the text, check mo kung tama ang magiging grammar. Minsan makakapag-eliminate ka na ng 2 words kung alam mong noun, verb o adjective ang hanap. Minsan sa tense pa lang o kaya kung plural o singular form ang hanap.
Listening
Hmmm. Wala rin ako masabi masyado about this. Pero nakatulong yung timed practice exam kasi mas mahirap yun lalo na sa repeat sentence (na covered din ng speaking).

dati kc ung sa read aloud ko para akong newscaster ganyan kc sabi ng iba. cguro nag work sa knila pero saken kasi hindi so what i did nung mock exam ko nag experiment ako. Ginawa ko sa read aloud ung way ng pagbabasa ko pag may comma laging pababa ung intonation pati sa full stop. Lagi mo un tatandaan laging pababa ung intonation at dapat tuloy tuloy ung salita mo na parang babasahin mo ung isang sentence na prang walang hingaan not to the point na maapektuhan na ung boses mo dahil kapos sa hangin haha. relax ka lang magbasa wag mo putulin or maxadong iemphasize ung word na dapat iemphasize. relax lang na parang namatayan na may gana. panu ko ba maeexplain dito haha. ganun ginawa ko sa mock at actual.

Dun sa 25 sec bago mag-start, basahin n'yo na yung buong text na may tamang tono at pauses. Para ka lang nagku-kwento. Tapos identify na agad yung words na mahihirapan kayong bigkasin para mapaghandaan n'yo.
It really helps na naiintindihan n'yo yung thought ng sentence lalo na kung mahaba siya at maraming comma.

binabasa ko na din ung nsa read aloud in a way na babasahin ko sya pag nag start na ung recording para alam mo na ung intonation at ung mahihirap na bigkasin. rehearsal kumbaga lol.
kaya ewan ko kung naicp ng invigilator or mga katabi ko na babagsak ako sa speaking kasi paulit ulit ko binabasa kung saan dapat ako huminga or i low ung intonation ko. inuulit ulit ko tlga basahin haha para pag nag start na magrecord ok na ok na.

Last exam ko po, medyo aminado ako na kulang ako sa pagcheck ng mic and sa pagcheck kung okay ba yung recording ng boses ko. Ano po ba yung additional tips nyo pagdating dito?
Sa Read Aloud, ginawa ko rin po yang pagpractice before recording. Pero ang pakiramdam ko masyado po akong mabilis at mahina magsalita kaya I ended up sounding siguro na malamya at kulang ng conviction.
Sa Describe Image and Retell Lecture, ang naisip ko po ay naapektuhan talaga ng husto yung oral fluency ko kasi medyo nagfocus ako na magsabi ng madaming details that's why I ended up na nagmamadali at alanganin lagi ang tapos. . At hindi po ako gumamit ng template sa Describe Image.
Ayun po. Sobrang bothered ako na isipin na kahit todo effort na ako, baka ang ending hindi parin ako marecognize nang maayos ng machine. Hay! Pero positive parin kasi onting kembot nalang exam ko na! Sama niyo po ako sa prayers nyo ha.
