Recommended Resources for Test Takers 

This website links the skills and subskills tested in PTE Academic with learning resources selected from internationally published ELT skills course books (and related online content). You may have access to some resources already, have used them before or want to purchase some after finding out how they can help you develop both the skills tested in PTE Academic and your general academic English. 



How to find resources

1.  Click on the communicative skill you want to practice: 2.  When the list of subskills appears, click on the subskill you want to practice, and you will see a list of resources and a summary of how each resource practices the subskill. The part(s) of PTE Academic and item type(s) that test the subskill are also shown, e.g. ‘Speaking: Read aloud’. Because PTE Academic tests integrated skills, you will find that some subskills feature in several parts of the test and are tested by a number of item types.

3.  Click on the name of the resource and you will find more information about the resource such as a description of the contents, the level, where to find additional online materials, where you can buy it online, and the publisher's information. The resources can be used for self-study or with a teacher.
