Personal Introduction is an opportunity to introduce yourself in front of you. While you preparing, make sure that you speak loudly in front of an organization. Speak exactly every word because there is no need to rush. Because on the time of the exam, the prompt given to you, for reading that prompt you have just 25 seconds. And 30 seconds for your response. Similarly, when you practice online, the prompt you see on the screen is for 25 seconds, after 25 seconds, it automatically recorded your response after 25 seconds. So be quick and speak exactly.

2.   Read Aloud: You see that the recording box displays a countdown until you do not open the microphone. For this, you have just 30-40 seconds to prepare or normally it depends on the length of the passage. When 40 seconds complete, you hear a small beep in your headphone. After that beep, you have to start speaking immediately and make sure you have to read aloud that your voice records exact and properly. Don’t start speaking until your microphone is not open because your voice is not recorded on that point. You have to Finish your speaking before the bar reaches to end and changes to completed or finished.

For preparation, you have to give just 3-9 seconds depending on the length of a sentence or in that time you will observe the typical words and the accents, in which you have to speak. After prompt duration time, there is a short tone, after that tone you have to repeat the sentence immediately. You have to speak exactly because there is no need to rush. You have to completed the sentence before the progress bar changes into finished.

4.   Describe Images: The next type of question is to Describe images in which you see an image which you have to describe. You have given just 25 seconds to prepare that image in 25 seconds, you have to see what is the type of image and according to that you have to speak in English. After completion of your Preparation time, you hear a tone, after that tone, speak immediately. Speak clearly because there is no need to rush in all words.

Want to move away from the residence or home
Some so many students want to pursue their further studies in a foreign. If you are thinking of doing higher studies in a foreign college then, it is very beneficial for you. Because study in foreign colleges makes you innovative and creative and you are open up with new ideas. This gives you a big advantage rather than others that when you apply for a new job. However, when you are taking out this decision, do thorough research for this.

In which country I go to?

It is essential or a good idea to make up your mind that what kind of courses you want to do. This will best suit your learning style and through search checks the subject you are in which college or university. It is more beneficial if you are strong in that subject which you are choosing. E.g. You are thinking of Mathematics, but you are not good in Economics so you can choose other subjects as a combination. As new combinations are being introduced every year.

Once you decided all subjects, then your next step is to choose the best universities as per your needs or subjects. In this, it includes means you have to see the university’s rank, Location, cost, Academic Work Visa prospects, etc. When you see all these parameters then you will know about what is the best country or best university suits you.

Or you need to sit in a test as part of a skills assessment.

There is a range of language tests for study abroad in which you can choose from. However, PTE is the beat in the market in Computer-based English Language Testing. PTE Exam is delivered entirely on the computer and after that score is conducted by computer through PTE Automated Scoring Technology.

The PTE Test is accepted by all countries but mostly in Australia’s Department of Home Affairs and New Zealand for all visa applicants. In this, it includes Permanent residence, Employer-sponsored (which we can say work Permit), student visa, etc.

How does PTE Technology will help you?

Firstly, you have to sit in front of the computer in PTE Academics is one of the best secure centers. You don’t have to think about it the examiner is from which country and how he or she looks like because it doesn’t matter in PTE Technology. Because this is a computer-based test and assessed with complete fairness.

Your responses are scored consistently and objectively, no matter where the test has been taken!

With the help of automated scoring technology, your score will be stored automatically and your result will declare within 5 -6 business days as compared to other tests because other tests take 2-3 weeks to declare the results.
