How to Improve Your PTE English Listening Ability

To maximize your score on the PTE Listening, you must practice for a long time. You would have mastered some fundamental English skills that are required for Part 3: Listening if you had practiced the other sections of the test.

You should strive to listen as much as you can in order to perform well on the listening questions since the more you listen, the better you will perform on the test.

Start listening to recordings at a level that is comfortable for you, then progressively increase the level as you get better. In other words, you don’t have to pick overly challenging cases at first.

To understand the meaning of the audio, attempt to focus only on the content words, such as nouns, adjectives, and verbs, as you listen. You can listen as many times as necessary to comprehend the information.

So what music should you tune in to?

You can listen to a wide variety of speakers from various locations to understand the various pronunciations used because the speakers on the PTE test have a variety of accents. as well as non-native English speakers from India, China, and Europe, as well as speakers from Britain, America, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand.

You can also download a few podcasts you enjoy and listen to them frequently. It’s a good idea to record the titles of recordings in your listening notebook along with notes.

You won’t have enough time in the test to write complete words or sentences, so it will be more effective to take notes using abbreviations and/or symbols.

Try to reflect on these questions after listening to the audio:

• What were the main points and the topic?
• What did it teach you?
• Which words did you learn?
• How many times have you read the text aloud?

Last but not least, you can utilize an online tone generator tool to speed up recordings while maintaining the speaker’s original pitch. To avoid hindering your ability to listen, try not to slow things down to the point where you translate the meaning into your native tongue.
