Beginner, Intermediate and Advanced are EWS study stages. PTE Academic reports scores on a 10–90 scale. This pathway also supports the Academic UKVI task format. PTE Core and PTE Home need separate courses.
How to use this course
Write your intended test and target scores. Take the Beginner check and do both papers to find your starting point.
Follow the task lessons. For chapter links, start at the linked time and stop at the displayed end time; YouTube does not stop automatically. Pause and attempt before hearing a demonstration. Use a partner for the short listening papers.
Complete the stage quiz and both papers. Review every mistake and repeat weak tasks with new material.
Take an unseen current-format full Guided Practice Test in Pearson Smart Prep, repair weak areas and use another version for final review.
Knowledge checks support course progress. Speaking and writing need task-specific self-review or teacher feedback. A quiz percentage or completion tick does not predict a PTE result.

Mock tests and final checking
Use Pearson’s current preparation page and open Smart Prep in a free myPTE account. It lists four full Guided Practice Tests and sectional tests. Registration is required. Free guided tests provide practice and sample answers; they are different from Pearson’s paid Scored Practice Tests.
Mock 1 — baseline: after Intermediate, use a current full guided version you have not seen. Attempt every task under the current instructions.
Repair: identify the three weakest task types. Revisit their lessons, practise unseen questions and write what changed.
Mock 2 — final rehearsal: use a different full version. Follow the actual task timers; do not pause or replay listening prompts.
Final review: compare all four skill areas with your target requirements and obtain teacher feedback on recorded and written responses. Official scored practice is optional and paid; no purchase is required to use this course.
Pearson currently lists 76–84 minutes for Speaking & Writing, 23–30 for Reading and 31–39 for Listening. Follow the live test’s own timers; do not add maximum ranges together to create a fixed mock duration. Full tests contain multiple items per task type.
Your readiness record
Drafts and progress save on this browser when storage is available. Export your notes to keep a copy. No account synchronisation, audio recording or automatic PTE marking is supplied.
Videos remain on their original channels. Study order follows the learning goal. Generic memorised answers, unofficial score promises and old task-weighting claims do not replace Pearson’s current guidance. On YouTube, some titles use “band” or “90/90” as promotion; EWS does not promise a score.
Video identities and published descriptions were checked against source pages and search results; playback and the full contents of every video were not verified. An external link opens YouTube directly to reduce embedded-player problems. If it fails, use the named original channel or the Pearson task page. Physical Android/iPhone playback and listening quality remain unverified.
Only English and concise Sinhala help are supplied in this new collection. Other language versions have not been authored or reviewed.
