hey everybody here from Language Academy guys welcome back to another video this video we are going to look at the speaking module each and everything you need to do and you need to award in order to get a perfect 19 PT academic or PT core I'll be sharing all the dos and don'ts which you need to follow in 2024 if you actually want to get your scores right using these techniques templates and strategies I've got 19 speaking in PT academic and 19 PT core as well so you need to make sure you know these things before you go for the test I'll be sharing my screen I'll discuss each and every task I need you to take a note of this follow the same thing and 100% success will be your I'll share my screen we'll discuss everything you need to follow to crack this test let's go let me share my screen and then we'll go from there all right if you're taking PT academic or PT core the very first task of your test will be read allowed all right read aloud this is how your screen is going to look like now what are the Dons here what are the things you need to word very first thing which you need to word is going too fast and not focusing on your Clarity a lot of times what happens is students they just want to finish everything as soon as possible so that they don't not lose points in their fluency remember fluency and pronunciation are the backbones of your PT test fluency is not just about your speed right right fluency is about your flow you can go slightly slow but at the same time you can be fluent so it's not just that you have to go too fast and you'll get full points in fluency fluency is maintaining your flow at the same time being clear now for fluency what you have to do and what pace you have to follow and read aloud look here with each passing year trees add a ring around their trunks the ring width is determined by the climate they experience do not do it this way with each passing year trees at ring around their trunks the ring withd is determined by the climate they experience favorable conditions don't do it this way go at a moderate Pace second thing do not over stress on Words a lot of you know many times I've seen students stressing too much on words they do it this way with each passing year trees add a ring around their trunks the ring width is determined by the climate they experience favorable conditions so do not overstress on anything do not go too fast take Natural pauses very important that you take natur natural pauses what do I mean by natural pauses see whenever there's a comma there's a full stop end of a sentence there's a connector take a slide pause with each passing year trees add a ring around their trunks the ring width is determined by the climate they experience favorable conditions mean wider rings and unfavorable conditions mean thinner as climate varies from year to year it creates time specific patterns like a barcode in the growth of trees within a region that is all you need to do you do not have to go too fast do not have to go too slow flow go at a moderate pace and that is all you need to do again I'll repeat moderate Pace Clarity and natural pauses if you're taking PT academic PT code doesn't matter do not over stress on words do not you know try to speak all of the passage without taking any pause and do not try to go too fast this is what you need to do in read aloud next is your repeat sentence now repeat sentence majority of the students what they think is in repeat sentence we have to repeat 100% of the content remember you do not need to repeat 100% of the content 100% content is not required I have taken the test 12 times I've got 90 every time being honest I am not able to repeat 100% of the sentence every time I only focus on repeating 70 to 80% of the content and that helps me with getting 19 speaking and listening as well repeat sentence is not your memory test it's just your speaking and listening test what you need to do you need to understand the meaning of the sentence as much as you remember speak clearly and confidently and that is all you need to take care of for example a sentence is um we will be traveling to Japan and South Korea by the end of August you you just remember this we will be traveling end of August you don't remember the whole part don't worry about recalling the sentence if you will try and recall the sentence you will lose your fluency you'll not be able to get your content and you'll lose points in pronunciation as well because you will spend too much time thinking there will be hesitations there will be ifs and buts um a lot of fumbles will be there you will not be able to maintain your frequency rather say this way we will be traveling somewhere end of August and I'm very happy and now I understand your content is not there at most you will lose half or one point in content but you'll get full points in fluency full points in pronunciation and that is what we want you need to repeat as much as possible clearly and confidently and you will be fine let me give you an example um let me share the screen as well okay do not try to be 100% perfect let's say this is the sentence at all times students are expected to adhere to laboratory safety rules at all times students are expected to follow the laboratory rules now instead of adhere to I just said follow right something like that I I wasn't really sure what is the word over here just I made by R I said at all times students are expected to follow the laboratory rules I also miss the safety word but this is fine I've got 70 to 80% content covered I spoke fluently and clearly it is 100% fine this is what I do this is what I tell all my students who even get 90 I have got 90 using the same now I'm not telling you to not repeat the content on purpose try and repeat 100% of the content but you are going to get 12 repeat sentences in the test and in every sentence you know some sentences will be long lengthy some will be short as well so it will not be possible to repeat 100% of the content every time your focus should be on repeating as much possible clearly and confidently and you will be 100% fine practice 25 to 30 repeat sentences every day don't focus on increasing or improving your memory a lot focus on understanding repeating back in a fluent and clear manner third question type describe image for both PT academic PT code easy task but a lot of students nowadays are losing points in the describe image and read a lecture part why they're not really updated they're not following the updated techniques templates and strategies they are following outdated templates and strategies which is creating a lot of f or issues about um their scores let me share my screen we tell you which templates you have to use what are things you need to follow all right let's say um we've got this image right first of all let's have a look at what the mistakes are worst mistake is students or test takers they try to speak everything all the details from the image you do not have to do that you have to just speak basic 678 keywords easy keywords from the image in a clear manner you do not have to go too fast um second thing you do not have to speak exact 40 seconds I would recommend you go around 20 25 seconds that will be more than enough do not speak too much do not try to cover everything do not speak till the end another thing do not use outdated templates many students are using outdated templates where you have to repeat the same sentence again and again for example on the screen on the screen on the screen on the screen if you will repeat same sentence again and again in describe image or in Reta lecture there are very high chances that you're not going to get this scores you can still use the templates but you need to make make sure you do not repeat the same sentence in the template again and again you need to mold or change your sentences a bit let me show you how all right if this is the image you start this way the image gives information about sales in units firstly we can see there different elements which include January and February furthermore different aspects in the image are one and two moreover it can be seen that 3900 and 8900 are crucial part of the image furthermore I can also observe June is the last month and January is the first month to conclude the image provides a lot of information about one and two so this is just an example what I'm trying to show over here is that you do not have to repeat the same sentence again and again you can start with an introduction sentence then firstly then furthermore then moreover then therefore however something like that just mold the sentences a bit so that you not repeating the same sentence again and again because recently when students try to use same sentence again and again they lost a lot of points in speaking so the whole idea is to speak around 20 25 5 Seconds I've already provided you a template um which is working in 2024 I'll attach the link in the description box as well you can use that or you can mold your template a bit do not use the template exactly as I provided you um one template can be easy for one student and can be difficult for the other student as well so what I need you to do I need you to follow um what is easy and if you find any difficult words within the template just change them a bit so that you can maintain your flow you can speak clearly and you know improve your fluency and your pronunciation as well this is what I want you to do um another thing which I want you to be very careful about do not try to speak all the keywords from the image the more keywords you speak the difficult it will be for you because you will lose points in fluency you'll be pronouncing the words incorrectly and you are not going to get any extra points in content keep it simple 20 25 seconds and focus on Clarity all right let me show you one more example image provides information or the image gives information or heat W frequency is the main topic of the image firstly we can see the main topic of the image is low and relatively low furthermore it can be observed that two different elements in the image are high and relatively High moreover high and moderately low are important parts of the image therefore it can be seen that heat wave and hurricane are important aspects of the to conclude the image is informative about frequency so the whole idea is um speak 5 S8 keywords in a fluent Manner and do not repeat the same sentences again and again so this was your describe image next is your Reta lecture pretty similar to describe image if you're taking PT academic if you're taking PT core you will not have Reta lecture you'll have respond to situation if you're taking PT academic or you're taking PT core in retail lecture respond to situation both the tasks you need to follow two to three things go around 25 30 seconds around 25 seconds are fine do not try to include difficult keywords only take down easy keywords in Reta lecture you will listen on audio you'll get an audio you have to take down notes do not take long keywords only take short keywords and in respond to situation you don't have to take keywords because the text will be given on the screen in that case as well take easy words only okay um now I'll show you Reta lecture as well I'll show you respond to a situation as well that will clear all your doubts but first of all let's have a look at retail lecture these are the keywords right let's say this is one keyword this is another keyword this is another keyword this is another keyword this is another keyword another keyword another keyword another keyword another keyword another keyword another keyword another keyword so let's say this is what you have written down in your notebook so you start the lecture provides information about species firstly the lecture gives information about trademark and smile for furthermore it can be observed from the lecture that some information about communication and people was given in the lecture moreover some details about smiles teeth and biting was provided by the lecturer however information about display and baboon was also mentioned in the lecture furthermore I also heard something about friendliness and aggressive to conclude lecture provided a lot of details about trademark and expression so whole idea is speak around 20 25 seconds speak in a flow take easy keywords and maintain your flow go around 25 seconds do not repeat the same sentence again and again and go in a flow you will be 100% fine same thing in respond to a situation as well if you're taking PT code for PT academic you'll not have respond to situation question type so for PT core you just need to go to dashboard go to PT core practice material let's say respond to a situation if this is your question what you do is you will get an audio but the audio will be the same thing as you have been provided on the screen so let's say once your recording starts you'll just start this way I understand that we are going to talk about customer service and representative first of all I would like to say that customer and faulty product are important in addition to this we should also take care of immediate refund and customer if it is possible please inform all the concerned members about customers's frustration and issue also next time we will discuss about company policies and satisfaction this would be of great help that's all you have to do this is the template I can give you a template you can take a screenshot so this is basically a template where we add the keywords What are keywords important words in the passage you have been given customer is service is an important representative is an important customer is important product is important demands important refund important frustration important satisfaction important company policies important if you don't want to follow the template you can use the template as a guide map and create a template for yourself with easy words for example um I think we are going to talk about customer service and representative today first of all we should focus on customer and product moreover it is important to note that demands and refund are important part of this question however customer frustration and resolve the issue should be taken care of immediately customer satisfaction and company policies will play an important role in this matter overall this should be resolved at the earliest so this is what I did right I just made a template on the spot template is just a structure which will help you maintain your flow and Clarity template is nothing else template is just a structure bunch of lines can be any lines which you find easy to speak which will help you maintain your fluency and your clarity content part will come from your keywords both Reta lecture and respond to situation in PT core keywords will give you points or will help you with your content scoring rest two parts will help you with your flow and with your Clarity and this is the fourth task of your test the last task of your speaking module is answer short question it's not important I always tell this for both PT academic PT Cod you'll get five to six of these These are basically journ knowledge based questions for example which is the tallest building in the world if you know the answer say the answer if you don't know the answer don't keep quiet don't say I don't know just repeat the question or the main keywords from the question let's say the question is which is the tallest building in the world you don't know the answer just say the tallest building in the world this is what I do it sounds bit weird but this works I've got 90 using this technique as well because out of six questions you will know the answer for three4 one or two can be you know out of the world or something we haven't heard of before um so I don't really want you to you know leave anything unturned I want you to attempt and give your best I want you to make sure you do not keep quiet or don't say I don't know um if there are options in the question for example which is the cheapest car in the world Lamborghini or Nano you don't know the answer just say Lamborghini and tatan Nano or if the question says um India Australia or Pakistan which of these three countries have the largest area you don't know the the answer just say India Pakistan and Australia if you know the answer just say Australia if you don't know the answer repeat all the options if there are no options just repeat the keywords from the question and you'll be fine don't worry much about practicing answer short questions focus more on read aloud repeat sentence and then your describe image and R leure read aloud I'll repeat again do not go too fast moderate Pace take pauses focus on Clarity and keep yourself comfortable repeat sentence as much as you remember speak clearly and confidently do not stop is um it's not a memory test so even if you have around 70 80% content speak clearly and confidently describe image go around 20 seconds take easy words do not repeat the same sentences do not use old templates follow the templates which I have shared um the link is in the description box as well you have to go around 20 seconds easy keywords and focus on Clarity Reta lecture around 25 30 seconds same thing for respond to situation around 25 seconds of fine follow the structure of the templates you can customize the template um you know by yourself as well it's not that the template I have provided or anyone else has provided will work you can use any template the template is there to help you maintain your flow and Clarity um you have to just add the keywords keywords should be easy um not too long you don't need to take long phrases just one or two words per keywords and in case you have less keywords you can repeat the same keywords as well but try to go around 25 seconds and that will help you maintain your content score as well and for answer short questions don't practice too much we be all right that is all you need to do and your speaking is sorted for PT academic and core this is what I did to get 19 both academic and core and you can do it as well keep it simple
