Speaking · the #1 lever to 79+
PTE speaking practice that fixes the right thing.
Most retakers stuck at 65 don't have a vocabulary problem — they have an oral fluency problem. We score your fluency, pronunciation and content the way the Versant engine does, and tell you exactly what to fix.

Why fluency
To hit Speaking 79+, you need fluency 4–5.
Pearson's Oral Fluency 4 allows at most one hesitation; a 5 allows none. A single stumble per Read Aloud drags your aggregate below the line. That's why drilling content alone never breaks the plateau.
