    Maraming salamat mga kapatid! There is no reason hindi tayo maging mgkakabarkada sa AUS, dahil sama2 nating hinarap ang mga pagsubok. Truly effective pag more than 1 brain ang ngtratrabaho at naging emotional support na rin kayong lahat.

    Hind ko pa feel ang grant. hehe

    Malaking challenges rin ang nghihintay sa AUS but for sure if same thing gawin natin ay mkakaya lahat na trials.

    @Jwade, haha! Oo nga, akala ko wlang nkakita. Naunahan mo ako sa forum na ito.

    @kaidenMVH, PTE stage ko, waahh very quite ako sa workplace ko at I acted so weird, dahil halata nila iba ang focus ko. Muntik na ako masibak. Salamat sa forum na ito my "PTE best practices".Sa mga ngtatake pa lang ng PTE right hardwork at strategy lang.

    Thank you mga kapatid. See you soon guys.

    @kayenzky, yes po %100 maipapasa nyo yan. =)

    @kaaate, Yes. makapag trabaho na rin ng maayos ang misis ko at mka pag patuloy ng schooling sa AUS. Hindi rin po kasi kami PR dito sa SG, at wife ko 2-year college grad lang. My daughter kami na 3.5year, which hindi namin kayang ipasok sa Pre-school dito sa SG. Basta sama-sama lang kami yun ang importante. I grew up na walang father, mahirap ang watak2x.. kaya tinodo na namin ito ang AUS PR application.

    Sa mga English teachers pala, @Heprex, @shielalables, @chococrinkle, @kaidenMVH, @lottysatty, @dyanisabelle.. at sa mga contributors, maraming salamat sa inyo.

    Huge obstacle sa akin last year paano ko ma attain ang PTE Superior. It was Heprex undying spirit ang ginaya ko. In that moment never ng change ang courage ko na maipasa ang PTE superior. Yung last take ko ng PTE pinauwi ko muna mag-ina ko sa Pinas para mka focus at yun naipasa ko. Pag clear mind madali maka pag focus. God bless lahat sa atin.

    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.

    @Grifter Hello question po ulit, nabasa ko lang din ulit yun question mo about 3 roles sa isang company, paano ginawa mo? hinati hati mo rin ba yun date sa EOI per job role? or nilagay mo lang yun start-end date tapos 1st role/2rd role?

    kasi yun assessment ko ganyan ang nakalagay hindi sinunod yun promotion date ko, so ganun din ginawa ko 1st role/2nd role nakacombined, pero iniisip ko hindi kaya maging conflict pa yun kasi 2 ang job designation ko? pero sinunod ko kasi yun ginawa ng vetassess. Please advise. Thanks ulit.
