Thank you po. Lumabas na yung results ko today. Sa mga mag tatake po, template ni E2Language Jay and Jimmyssem sa youtube (hinati ko kasi skeptical ako nung una sa template ni Jimmy). Effective sya sa speaking (ito yung weakness ko sa DI and RL).
Sa reading po practice lang sa APEUni and Pearson Mocktest. Listening, nood ng english movies and kinig ng english news bago matulog and pag gising

Read Aloud - Sobrang laking tulong ng APEUNI lalo na sa Read Aloud at Repeat Sentence. For Read Aloud, ang tip ko lang ay artehan ang pagsasalita kahit minsan parang hindi okay sa tenga dahil pinoy english tayo pero napansin ko, laking taas ng score kapag medyo nilalagyan ang arte ang pag English. nakakadagdag ng points sa fluency. kung may mga sentence na medyo nakakautal, bagalan basahin para sure na walang mali kesa normal speed o mabilis nga, nagstutter ka naman, bawas points agad un.
Repeat Sentence - nahirapan din ako dito. sa totoo lang, wala yata akong naperfect sa repeat sentence kaya during exam naisip ko kailangan ko bumawi sa write from dictation para sa listening part. siguro ang tip ko lang, kapag tapos na ang time mo magsalita at alangan ka, move on na lang agad para focused na agad sa next. walang mangyayari kung iisipin mo pa ng iisipin na nagkamali ka.
DI at RL - template ni jimmyssem ginamit ko both. inartehan ko na lang din yung pagsasalita.
SWT - wala talaga akong template na sinunod dito. basta 20-30 words lang yung goal ko at maayos yung construction ng sentence. medyo hindi ako tiwala sa mga template na nakikita ko.
WE - ginamit ko ung essay structure ni Jay from E2 language. yung may 4 paragraphs, 200-300 words. Sobrang okay nito para sa akin dahil hindi na kailangan magmemorize ng template. yung structure na lang yung kailangan imemorize tapos macucustomize mo pa based sa topic na mabibigay sayo.
SST - 50-70 words, tapos ako lang din gumawa ng sentence consstruction. wala na akong sinunod na template kasi based sa experience ko sa mock exam, hindi consistent yung scoring kapag templated.
WFD - bilisan lang magtype, okay lang kahit may typo sa una or kahit kulang pa. balikan na lang after mo marining yung buong text. sinunod ko din yung tip ni jimmyssem na kapag hindi sure sa narinig, pwede mo ilagay kahit ilang words pa para sure na makuha mo yung points.
Diyan lang ako focused nung exam. yung ibang parts, practice lang sa APEuni. Kayang kaya kung prepared ka.
