PTE Write from Dictation Practice Sentences
Have someone read each sentence aloud once, or use a text-to-speech tool, then type it from memory. Marks are awarded per correct word, so partial answers still score.
How to practise this task
- Listen to the whole sentence before typing anything.
- Hold it as three or four meaning chunks, not individual words.
- Reread for plurals, past-tense endings and spelling before submitting.
