Are You a Native English Speaker Struggling with PTE?
Many native speakers assume they will pass easily without preparation.
Why native English speakers often struggle with PTE
Many native speakers expect to perform well without preparation. However, PTE tests how well you follow the exam format, not just your English ability.
Common issues include:
• speaking naturally instead of following the scoring structure
• losing points on low-value questions
• misreading instructions
• long pauses that close the microphone
These are exactly the kinds of mistakes highlighted in your free guide.
As a native English speaker with experience in academia throughout my Bachelor's degree, this course was crucial to my success in PTE. Bethany is an expert in the structure of the exam, and gives excellent advice on where to place your effort for maximum marks, strategies for approaching each question, and potential pitfalls where students lose marks. Bethany regularly sits the exam herself and knows exactly how to work the system for maximum points. If you want superior results, this course is a non-negotiable. For me personally, Bethany was extremely generous and went above and beyond requirements to help me across the line and I am so grateful.

Hey Beth, I have been following your course for native speakers and sat my exam this weekend. Got my results back and managed to get 90/90 in all sections!! Honestly can’t thank you enough, your content was fab and simplified everything perfectly. Will defo recommend you to anyone sitting the PTE!
Hi Beth, yes great news. I got proficient (got superior score in reading, speaking and listening, 2 points short on writing got 83!), so only 2 points out for superior but proficient was my goal, but couldn't believe I was that close to superior didn't think it was possible. Lizzie got superior too. Thanks for all your help. Thanks again.
