@arianignacio mahalaga sa retell nga pala ay macapture mo ung mga important phrases from audio. Mahalaga kasi yung content sa part na to. Kaya i practice mo din yung mabilis na pag take ng notes. During read aloud ko sinusulat ung template sa retell sa notepad kagaya ng strategy ni @steven

Hello! Pwede po humingi ng tips sa Speaking? Yan talaga pinakamahina ko. Kailangan ko daw gawin buo ang boses ka, paano po yun? Haha

^ moniPTE sa Youtube in improving Speaking skills, madami pang ibang sources for Speaking; E2, DreamEnglish. etc.
Writing- try Sonny English, compound complex at yung pattern nya sa essay madali.
Reading - APEUni & sa mga nagstruggle sa Reading i got tip from Nikhil sa youtube; aside from Collocation i learned context-based & grammar-based cases sa RWFIB & FIB, its easy to identify kapag narefresh ka sa basic info.

@coolguy22 What is the shadowing technique?
Shadowing is an advanced learning technique where you listen to a text in your target language, and then speak it aloud at the same time as the native speaker.

Hi everyone. Nagtry po ako ng graded mock test sa pte tutorial at eto po nakuha ko. What can you recommend and suggest po? I used templates na dito ko din po nakuha, salamat po sa lahat ng mga nagbigay ng ideas nila. I am aiming for 79 or superior pro 65 is enough grade for me to proceed with my application to au. Kinakabahan padin ako dahil minsan nauutal ako sa mga words and hindi ko nakukuha ang repeat sentence. Hirap din po akong magcomprehend minsan sa reading. 😞
