Salamat @auitdreamer at @Teng10

tonzap26 · October 2016

Got my scores!!!!

L 89
R 86
W 87
S 90

Medyo distracting at first kasi sabay sabay nagsasalita sa speaking part. Pero it helps na dapat tuloy tuloy lang ang salita mo without pauses or uhms and ahhhs. Lakasan lang ang boses and high confidence

aJeff · October 2016

@auitdreamer sa repeat sentence ba pwede mag take down notes? Na bblanko ako pag ako na magsasalita pero narining ko naman yun buong sentence. lol

batman · October 2016

@aJeff yes you can take down notes. but i don't think you will have enough time to do that. Keep practicing. I was able to extend my memory in repeat sentence through practice with the help of youtube

auitdreamer · October 2016

@aJeff yes pwede. Naging problema ko din yang naglalaho sa alaala ko yung kakarinig ko lang haha! Nagpractice ako writing down the first letters of each word. Medyo mahirap sa simula pero pag nakuha mo na - malaki natutulong nung technique na ito lalo na sa long sentences.

Got the result from friday's exam

Sawi

L69 R68 S50 W84

Advise naman for the speaking. Kinakabahan kasi ako nun. Sabay sabay pa lahat magsalita. I think ang dami kong pause kaya ang baba ng score.m

auitdreamer · October 2016

@Rmdee_1819261 follow lang sa tip ni @tonzap26 - magsalita ka lang talaga ng tuloy tuloy. Wala dapat pauses at hesitations kasi maapektuhan nun yung Oral Fluency mo. Ganda pala ng writing score mo

@tonzap26 congrats!

tonzap26 · October 2016

@auitdreamer thanks!!!

@Rmdee_1819261 sa makati ka ba nagexam last friday at 3pm? Malamang we were at the same room haha. Ako yung nakablue na only guy in the class nung una. Anyway, I think dapat tlaga dire direcho lang magsalita. And kelangan mataas ang confidence kasi it translates to what will come out of your mouth

isipin mo nalang ung mga chinese at viets na nasa AU na ngayon. they hardly speak good english

kaya mo yaaan!

tonzap26 · October 2016

@aJeff hello. I think wala nang time to take down notes for repeat sentence. Practice lang bro. may mga learning sessions sa youtube. I think ung memory ung kelangan mapractice. and advisable na you say exactly how the speaker said it including tone and pronounciation. The first time i did it nakakalito pero through practice, naging OK naman

heavybane · October 2016

Hi all,
Pasensya po if medyo mababaw question ko. Sa pagbook ng PTE-A exam online, dapat ko ba tick eto?

"Important for those applying for a relevant work* or study visa to Australia: By ticking this box you consent to Pearson making your score report available to the Australian Department for Immigration and Border Protection (DIBP) electronically for the purposes of administering the visa application process, including decisions on your visa. *From November 2014" Thanks

jaceejoef · October 2016

wala pa ang scores ko.. the agony!

kokoc · October 2016

@peeedooooy yung retell lecture how long ka nagssalita? nahhrapan ako kahit may template..

kokoc · October 2016

Do you guys suggest that I enroll in a class kasi can't get it?

bluezaido · October 2016

Thanks for the tips from this thread!
Special mention for @jedh_g , @rich88 , and @mugsy27 !

My score: L - 85, R - 74, S - 78, W - 88

Unfortunately, 55 points lang ako.
We're planning to take a different route, wife ko naman magpapasa ng EOI nya kapag matapos sya ng studies nya this December.

Thanks again for the tips!

My two cents' worth:
Practice, after that practice again. Also, try to take the mock-exams provided by this site: https://ptepractice.com/.

Edit: forgot to mention that the ptepractice.com mock exam is not free. They provide two sets of exam, Package A and B. They sell them separately, I think 39USD each, or both which will cost you 59USD.

mugsy27 · October 2016

@bluezaido congrats sir! goodluck sa future plans nyo.

jedh_g · October 2016

@bluezaido congratulations! Move on now to the next step

shielalables · October 2016

@auitdreamer 4 years experience palang tas 2 year na credit, need ko maghabol ng points... March pa kasi ako mag to-25 tas July next year pa yung 5 years exp. So try namin bawi partner points and english huhu. Target kasi namen nasa AU na kami by Jan 2018

jaceejoef · October 2016

@kokoc pa-share naman ng template mo sa retell lecture. thanks!

auitdreamer · November 2016

@jedh_g Nasa syd ka na pala! Congrats!

@shielalables Oo sayang din partner at English points. go for 20pts sa English. Kaya mo yan!

@kokoc ikaw lang talaga makakapag sabi kung mas comfortable ka magclass. Ang maganda sa pagtake ng classes eh di mo na hulaan kung anong points of improvement mo at di mo na hanapin kung ano dapat mga techniques kasi sabihin na nila lahat sayo.

And for any of the speaking sections, try to speak for about 35 secs. Except for yung Read Aloud na normally about ka lang talaga ng mga 25-30 secs.

Rmdee_1819261 · November 2016

@auitdreamer mukhang dun ako buma a. May pauses and hesitations kasi ako. Kaya ang baba ko sa oral fluency

anywa, bawi na lang. More practice pa. @tonzap26 yes sa makati din ako nung friday 3pm. Grabe naloka ako ganun pala yung set up. I mean i expected na tabi tabi pero maingay pala talaga. Very distracting lalo sa speaking part kasi everyone was speaking at the same time

sadly i did not get the desired score that i want. More prctice pa. Salamat sa tips!

jaceejoef · November 2016

@Rmdee_1819261 matigas din ba keyboard mo? nahirapan ako kasi parang typewriter ang ginagamit ko sa sobrang tigas!

nung Friday 3PM din ako nag exam. pangatlo ako pumasok sa room.

ano yung class? san yan?

Lexi · November 2016

@Rmdee_1819261 mas konti kaya ang examinees pag weekdays? Mas marami kaya tao pag hapon kesa sa umaga?

TIA

kokoc · November 2016

@jaceejoef ganito lang ginagamit ko pra madali. Pero kahit may template na dont be too lax kasi minsan nakakabuyoy parin hehe. Anyway hope this helps. Half of the sentence is provided kaya forcus ka nalang sa second half and enunciate clearly while recording.

The speaker mainly talks about (topic)
According to the speaker, there are several points in the lecture.
Firstly, he/she mentioned that (point 1)
Secondly, he/she emphasized
Lastly, he/she suggested
In summary, it is clear and interesting as a learning topic.

gingpoy · November 2016

Hi Guys, good morning. Question lang, sa speaking part, need pa ba hintayin yung bar before mag salita or once madinig na yung beep, puwede na magsalita?

Failed na naman kasi yung sa speaking ko na part which sobrang baba naman.

L: 65
R: 69
S: 45
W: 72

@kokoc thanks! at least may susundan ng template. hirap magisip on the spot. thanks again!

another thing. ano nga pala ang sinasabi mong class? parang sa e2language ba yun?

auitdreamer · November 2016

@Rmdee_1819261 Ako ginamit ko www.tcyonline.com para sa practice test. 10 sets sya ng practice test na timed. Ok pang practice ng speaking at listening kasi timed and recorded kaya ma-practice ka talaga sa actual test experience.
