What Is Short Answer Questions Section About?

Under the Listening and Speaking section, the PTE Academic aspirant will be given a set of questions showing on his/her computer screen. The aspirant will have to listen to the question thoroughly as it starts automatically as the section begins. Then (S)he will have to answer accordingly in the microphone provided by the PTE Test Centre. The answer can be in a single word or a sentence. The person appearing for the Short Answer Questions will be given the time of about 10 seconds to respond to a prompt of about 4-9 seconds.

How To Appear For This Section?

  • Speak the word(s) clearly and slowly in order to be extremely sure of your answer being rightly recorded.
  • Start speaking as the progress bar on your screen flashes “Recording”. As unlike the Read Aloud section, there is no beep or tone heard before recording begins.
  • Finish speaking positively before the “Recording” turn to “Completed” to ensure that your answer has been recorded.
  • Be very calm while appearing for this section as it seems to be the easiest but its score will equally affect your overall grade.

What Should You Be Careful About?

Being a very scoring section, the PTE Academic aspirant must be very careful about fetching the quick marks.

  • Do not pause for more than 3 seconds while answering your short question as it will automatically stop recording and your opportunity to answer the quick question will be lost.
  • You cannot re-listen the question. Kindly listen the audio carefully in the first go.
  • You cannot re-record your answer. Kindly answer patiently in the first time itself to a kid losing marks.
  • Be short, crisp and accurate in your answers. The short and to the point the answer, the quicker you fetch marks.
  • Prefer single word answers over writing long sentences.
  • You will be awarded no credits for wrong responses or no responses.

Hack

If you are really blank about what is to be said about the picture then we have a back up too.

Look closely at the picture and say:-

  • I have got a picture to describe in front of me.
  • I have got just 40 seconds to talk a little about this image.
  • Let me get a closer look at the picture.
  • With a detailed closer scan, I can see several trends emerging in this picture.
  • On my computer screen, I can see different numbers, sizes, colours and shapes.
  • On the screen, I can see a variety of colours such as black and white.
  • On my computer screen, I can see (describe the type of picture you are) which represents (read the title of the picture as it is).
  • Go on to say what you can see in the image (pick up words from the image and continue to do so till you have time.)

Overall, the picture is very informative.”

Pro Tip

  • Be as organised in your description of the shown image as possible. Try keeping a brief Introduction for the section which shall be same and break your descriptions in a beginning, middle and end. This will cover up most of the important areas and benefit you in the assessment of your answer.
  • Be as detailed about the main idea of the picture as possible.

My experience with englishwise is a great one. I did manage to get my desired score within few weeks time. My trainer Himzy was very professional and her tricks worked really well to achieve my target score. I feel really comfortable to work with her and she responded to my quarries within second and that was the best thing about her. Even my wife wonder how much effect she put into her job and we never expected that kind of support when we join englishwise. The portal is regularly updated and has got all the tools you required to crack your PTE. Highly recommended this provider.

I got my desired score on the first attempt. I had no idea about PTE before as it was my first time. I'm very grateful to English Wise and especially my tutor Sarah. I recommend everyone to join English wise to achieve your goal. I took 20 hrs private classes with trainer Sarah. She is very professional and guides you thoroughly. She is very supportive and she delivered very practical and useful learning sessions. Her constructive feedback and teaching techniques and strategies helped me to improve on my weakness. The course material and resources from English wise are very helpful to achieve the desired score. Highly recommended!!

I have learned so much in my PTE classes with Englishwise."HIMZY/HIMNEET" is an excellent tutor.Himzy's method of teaching is so wonderful & refreshing.I want to thank Englishwise & Shivi as well, EW arranged online, one to one pte classes in just one call. It was all easy n hassle free.As i had only 10 days to prepare for my exam so HIMZY broke down the pte learning material according to that. She was always patient and eager to help.& Finally, in just 6-7 one-to-one classes, I learned the methods, tips & tricks from Himzy to crack PTE exam, and i scored more than 80 in each module.I'm thrilled to have found ENGLISHWISE.

First I have to thank Senorita and Sakshi for all their effort to guide me and helped me to clear all my doubts and also given me many tips every time and they encouraged me each and every mock test with patience.During my online feedback class Sohal play a major role, especially on my all mock test feedback classes. Sohal always spot on all the mistakes I had made and corrected them and guided me, and all the staff who works in English wise are very kind and easy approachable.Thank you Duen lobo as well and my another online trainer Satvik. Thank once again for all of you, you people are very great.I got my desired score on my first attempt within two month of my training.

This is the scam!!!! First they will say it’s on offer and forced you to pay and take class whenever you want to, due to lockdown i could not do face to face and I didn’t wanted to take online and I asked them for refund but they denied and they blocked from Facebook and it’s been already more than 1 year they took my $495. They told me to find someone and refer but I don’t have anyone and how can I refer to someone where I’m suffering Already.Stop doing fake marketing and stop taking money from innocent students, I had to work so hard to make $495 and this people took it away😢😢😢. SHAME ON YOU HARKIRAT KAUR🤬😡😡

I paid for one month 250 dollars, I had an emergency with my family, I sent and email request my course cancellation, they refused. I check the prices and for 250 dollar you have 6 months for use the platform, I ask to them because I paid 250 just for one month. I used the platform, I tried to be in class and I was connected with many people and waiting for the teacher more than 15 min. I didn’t get any class with teacher! Any class!! Any feedback …They send me an email and they told me I can access for 6 months to the platform because I paid 250 after one month the close the platform I asked them and they said it was the deal. I wasted money and time and I had an terrible experience and stressful. I could paid this money in a better place o paying my test.Please don’t get agreement with this people!!!Don’t waste your money and time. Awful experience!
