Every day, English tests help decide whether someone can start a new life abroad.

For those taking a language test as part of a visa or migration process, the stakes couldn’t be higher. These are moments that decide futures, whether it’s studying at university, reuniting with family, or landing a first job overseas. That’s why, for tests like PTE Academic and PTE Core, test centers offer a secure, accurate, and trusted experience that governments can rely upon.

But a few myths still persist, so let’s set the record straight.

Myth one: “Test centers aren’t that secure”

Reality: a test center environment provides security that starts before the test begins:

• Biometric ID checks. Every test taker must show valid ID (like a passport) and confirm their identity with photos, palm-vein scans, and digital signatures.

• Physical security checks. Trained staff check clothing and personal items before entry, stopping hidden notes or unauthorised materials from getting in.

Once the test has begun, test centers combine secure-by-design exams with digital and human supervision to create a secure, fair environment:

• Unique exams. Every PTE test is different. No two test takers get the same questions, and proctors can’t access the content.

• Secure systems. The test runs on software and hardware fully controlled by Pearson, so it can’t be tampered with.

• Multiple cameras, full visibility. Test centers use wide-angle CCTV to monitor the entire room.

• Proctors in the room. Trained staff can spot hidden notes, off-screen help, and respond to anything suspicious straight away.

Myth two: “Test centers rely on human proctors”

Reality: human proctors play a key role, but they’re just one piece of what makes test centers secure.

Test centers provide multiple types of security and supervision, all managed by the testing body — not the student — making them the most secure testing environment.

As well as cameras, test centers can provide identity verification, physical checks, and in-person supervision needed for a high-stakes test.

This real-time, multi-layered monitoring means if anything suspicious is flagged, a full investigation can be carried out centrally by Pearson, using CCTV footage, audio, AI checks, and human review.

Myth three: “Test centers can’t detect cheating afterwards”

Reality: Pearson carefully analyses every single test result using a combination of AI and trained human experts.

After the test is completed, it goes through fraud analytics to identify unusual patterns or behaviours. If anything looks suspicious, the result is placed on hold and reviewed in detail by our security experts before it’s released.

A quick summary: how test centers support high-stakes English testing

• Biometric checks to confirm identity

• Physical security checks to ensure no materials enter the test

• Randomised computer-based test content for every candidate

• Multiple cameras and full-room visibility

• Real-time supervision by trained staff

• AI and human experts working together to spot unusual patterns

• A consistent environment and equipment for all test takers

These measures make sure that every candidate has the same opportunity to succeed, and every institution can rely on the result. Behind every test is someone with a dream of a new life abroad, and PTE has the great privilege of helping them get there.

Endless beaches, world-class coffee, and… spiders the size of dinner plates (?) — Australia really does have it all! Thinking about making the move to the Land Down Under? Well, grab your sunscreen and let's explore the best places to call home in Australia.

Melbourne: the hipster haven

If laneway cafes, vibrant street art, and sipping artisanal coffee while wearing all black are your thing, Melbourne is your Southern Hemisphere soulmate.

Consistently ranked as one of the world’s most liveable cities, Melbourne’s thriving arts and music scenes, paired with endless brunch spots serving smashed avo on toast, keep the vibe electric.

With its unpredictable weather and famous tram network, Melbourne is a quirky yet sophisticated hub that never goes out of style.

The South Bank precinct offers riverside dining, cultural attractions, and a man-made beach, while nearby adventures like Moreton Island and the Gold Coast are just a short trip away.

Perth: the isolated gem

Perth may be one of the most isolated major cities in the world, but it’s worth the extra travel time for the quality of life.

With pristine beaches, sunny weather, and a booming economy, this Western Australian city has it all. Weekend wine tastings in the Swan Valley or trips to the quokka-filled Rottnest Island are local favorites.

The "Describe Image" task in the PTE Academic can be challenging, but we are here to help you prepare. Here are some key do's and don'ts: 

What to do 

1. Use your preparation time wisely 

• Before the recording starts, use your preparation time to identify the key trends and the most significant trend in the image. This will help you focus your response on the most important aspects. 

2. Speak for 30-40 seconds 

• Aim to speak for 30-40 seconds. This duration is ideal for covering the key features without rushing or running out of time.

3. Incorporate numbers 

• Use numbers from the image in your spoken response. Mentioning specific data points can make your description more precise.

What not to do 

1. Avoid memorized responses 

• Do not use memorized responses or templated sentences. Such responses can lead to a score of 0 for content. If this happens, your fluency and pronunciation will not be scored either. 

2. Don't try to mention every feature 

• Focus on the key features of the image. Prioritize the most significant trends and data points within the 40 seconds. 

3. Don't spend too much time on labels

• While it's important to mention labels, don't spend too much time describing them. Instead, focus on the trends and data they represent. 

4. Avoid adding personal opinions

• Stick to describing the elements you can see in the image.  

By following these do’s and don’ts, you can tackle the "Describe Image" task in the PTE Academic test with confidence.    Need more help preparing for PTE Academic? Visit our PTE Academic Preparation page.

Whether you’re looking to create a new life down under or make your own American dream a reality, one of the first hurdles is proving you’ve got the right English language skills.  

English proficiency exams cover listening, reading, writing, and speaking, and it will come as no surprise that it’s the speaking part of the test that people worry the most about.  

With PTE there is no face-to-face speaking test to stress about, taking away the concerns around what to wear and whether you will get on with your examiner. Also remember that PTE’s automated scoring technology is trained to understand over 120 different accents so that is one less thing to worry about.  

However, it is still daunting, which is why we’ve put together some tried and tested top tips to help you feel confident for the speaking section of PTE.  

What to expect in the PTE speaking section

Learning what to expect from each section of the test can help ease anxieties and allow you to prepare properly. PTE is made up of three sections:

1. Speaking & Writing (54-67 minutes) 

2. Reading (30 minutes) 

3. Listening (30 minutes) 

 The Speaking & Writing section is then split into 8 tasks: 

1. Personal introduction  

2. Read aloud 

3. Repeat sentence 

4. Describe image  

5. Re-tell lecture 

6. Answer short question  

7. Summarise written text 

8. Essay  

For more information on specific instructions for each task, you can review the test format and scoring criteria.

Building your English-speaking confidence

Feeling confident speaking English takes time and patience. Here are four ways to help you feel prepared for the PTE speaking section.

1. Complete short practice activities every day 

When something feels new and unfamiliar it can be stressful. Build your familiarity and comfort levels by setting aside time each day to complete short practice activities. It’ll help you learn what to expect from each task, keeping you calm and giving you more time to focus on providing a clear answer on test day.  

2. Immerse yourself in English  

Surrounding yourself with English-speaking TV shows, audiobooks, and podcasts is a fantastic way to build your vocabulary and practice your listening skills on a daily basis. The more you listen to English, the more you familiarize yourself with the language. You may also find yourself picking up new vocab and phrases that come in handy on test day. To take your speaking and listening skills to the next level, find a range of shows with different accents — American, British, Australian — to really tune into the English language.  

3. Find a language exchange partner  

Having conversations in English is one of the best ways to hone your language skills and build your speaking confidence. Look online to find a language tandem or see if there are partnership opportunities in your local area to help you get that real-life “I did it” confidence of being understood and connecting in another language. 

4. Use speech recognition technology 

If you’re struggling to find a language partner, look for language-learning apps like Mondly by Pearson that use technology to practise speaking and pronunciation. Some people actually find it easier talking to a computer rather than having the pressure of a real human, so it can be a great way to build confidence if you’re feeling nervous about speaking up.

There’s no need to pick just one of these ways — try out several to see which works best for you or combine multiple ways of practicing to make sure you’re at your confident best on test day.  

Tips for during the speaking section   

You’ve done all your preparation, you’re feeling confident, now you’re in the test center ready to show everyone what you can do.

Here’s how to make sure that practise shines through during the speaking exam:  

• Utilize spare time  

During the test, make use of the few seconds before each recording begins to properly read the material and mentally prepare your answer.

• Pay attention to punctuation

Punctuation helps you decide where to pause and change your intonation. Good pausing techniques can help you read more fluently and give more meaning to the text.  

• Stress the important words 

Add more emphasis to the words you think are important. Try to copy the tone and intonation of recordings to replicate the patterns of the sentences you hear.   

• Listen to the phrasing  

Pinpoint the most meaningful parts of the sentence and remember those phrases. You’ll be scored on correct word sequences, so remembering words as phrases will help you.  

• Don’t rush 

Remember to stay calm, speak clearly and try not to rush to make sure that your recording showcases the very best of your speaking ability.

With the right approach, you can answer the “Retell Lecture” question type in PTE Academic with confidence. Here are some essential tips to help you prepare: 

Dos 

1. Take effective notes 

• As you listen, jot down key words and phrases. Use punctuation like ‘-, =, &, +, arrows’ and bullet points to show connections between ideas. This will help you organize your thoughts and ensure you cover all important points. 

2. Highlight key points and relationships 

• Discuss the main points, but also include characters, actions, aspects, and relationships between the information. This will make your response more comprehensive.

3. Speak for up to 40 seconds 

• Aim to speak for up to 40 seconds. The longer you speak, the more likely you are to cover the content requirements for this question. Ensure your response is detailed and covers all necessary aspects. 

4. Use linking words and relative clauses 

• Incorporate linking words (so, then) and relative clauses (which, who, that) to connect your ideas and show relationships between them. This will make your response more fluid. 

Don'ts 

1. Avoid memorized responses 

• Do not use memorized responses or templated sentences. If there is a significant amount of pre-memorized content, a score of 0 will be given, and fluency and pronunciation will not be scored. 

2. Don't just mention key words

• Avoid mentioning key words from the lecture (e.g., recipe, food, cook) in a disconnected way. You need to describe characters, aspects, actions, and their relationships to provide a coherent response. 

3. Don't try to mention everything 

• It won’t be possible to mention everything the lecture covered in 40 seconds. Focus on the most important points to provide a concise and relevant summary. 

4. Avoid filler words 

• Do not add filler words that do not connect to the lecture. Stick to the content of the lecture to ensure your response is relevant and focused.

From world-famous beaches to stunning coral reefs, hopping wildlife to bbq-loving locals, it’s no wonder that Australia claims two top ten spots in the Global Liveability Index. 

Whether you’re looking for bustling cities or quiet countryside, Australia is full of potential, with education, career opportunities and a sense of community being the biggest draws.  

But how did people choose their new life down under? We talked to over 3000 PTE test takers who’ve migrated to Australia to find out why they made the move and what they love about their new home.  

High-quality education

According to our survey, over 64% identify Australia’s high-quality education system as a major pull. Australia takes in a huge number of international students, with over 810,000 enrolled to study in Australia from 2023.  

A warm welcome and support for their existing international student population only encourages more to apply, creating a strong international community.  

Those looking to study in Australia have a choice of more than 40 universities offering huge choices in academic programs.  

On a student visa, you have the option to work part-time during your studies, allowing international students to support themselves while learning, and making Australia an affordable option for those looking to study in an English-speaking country.  

Career opportunities

One of the most appealing aspects of moving to Australia is the number of career opportunities. Top sectors shaping the economy and providing great employment opportunities include mining (14.3%), health and education (12.8%), and finance (7.4%).  

Our PTE test takers told us they were able to find well-paid work, with some even going on to start businesses and buy a home down under. More than nine in ten (91%) are working full-time, with 72% employed in skilled professions with a median income of $93k.  

Over 87% said they were looking to progress their careers in Australia, suggesting they’re feeling fulfilled in their work and optimistic about their long-term career options in the country. PTE Academic is recognized by a wide range of professional bodies for their skills assessments, including engineering, nursing and midwifery and accounting to name a few. This opens many doors for pursuing a career in Australia.   

Sense of community

A warm welcome and sense of community are what makes a new place become home. Beyond education and career opportunities, social integration was one of the main advantages of migrating to Australia.  

We found that 84% of people that had moved to Australia say they’ve successfully built community connections, with 89% having experienced acts of kindness from others. Movers also report wanting to contribute to their new communities, with more than 1 in 10 taking part in volunteer activities.  

This two-way integration makes Australia an attractive place to put down roots and become a part of the country’s diverse social fabric.

A long-term move

So many respondents shared their positive experiences of moving to Australia, with 8 in 10 saying Australia met or exceeded their expectations and 9 in 10 encouraging others to make the move and join them.  

Many see it as a long-term move with 70% wanting to stay and gain permanent residency.   

From education and employment opportunities to vibrant international communities, it’s easy to see why so many English-speakers are saying “G’day” to a new chapter in Australia.  

Making it happen with PTE

It takes ambition and commitment to start a new life abroad — along with the right support.  

Our survey found that 66% of migrants felt their success at work in Australia was down to their English language skills.  

PTE Academic is recognised by the Australian government for all visa categories and is accepted by 100% of universities in Australia.

Designed to be faster, fairer, and simpler, 87% prefer PTE over similar tests. So, if the Great Australian Dream sounds like the right fit for you, take the first step with PTE.
