IntroductionThis resource provides guidance for teachers preparing learners for PTE Academic. It maps each Unit of Language Leader Advanced to subskills and communicative skills tested in PTE Academic. Using this guide, you can feel confident that you are providing targeted skills development and item type-focused practice for your test takers.
The map has the following features:
Each of the twelve units of Language Leader Advanced has activities to develop and practice general English language skills around a core topic, with sections covering grammar, vocabulary, reading, listening, and speaking and pronunciation. In each unit there is a scenario focusing on extended speaking practice in a real-life situation, drawing together all the skills learned. There is also a section on study and writing skills that develops academic English skills, with a focus on the discourse features of written English. The activities develop the core English language skills without which academic English tasks cannot be completed. You will also find individual activities similar to PTE Academic tasks, such as filling in gaps in sentences, transcribing missing words from a recording, correctly identifying facts in an audio recording, and answering multiple choice questions from reading and listening.
Each unit is divided into double-page lessons on a sub-topic, to allow flexibility and ease of use, and this map reflects this grouping of activities and input material. The subskills of PTE Academic and the item types where they are tested are therefore grouped according to the double-page lessons to assist you to use the double-page arrangement as part of effective test preparation. However, through each unit there is a carefully staged introduction of new language as well as recycling of previous language, so there is some advantage in a systematic approach to each unit as a whole. In order to keep this mapping manageable, only the core subskills of each activity relating to specific item types are mapped, so, for example, a reading activity may also practice understanding academic vocabulary although this may not be specifically listed here for those pages unless there is specific vocabulary work.
The Language Leader Advanced Teacher’s Book provides objectives for each unit and explains the rationale and plan of each unit and lesson. It also provides the answers to tasks in the Students’ Book, and has a Test Master CD-ROM for the creation of class tests. A Workbook with further practice is also available.

Overview of PTE AcademicPTE Academic is a computer-based test of academic English, designed to provide information about the English language level of test takers who wish to study or work in an English-speaking environment. It takes approximately three hours to complete, and is administered in a single session. Test takers respond to between 70 and 91 individual tasks, across 20 different item types, in the four communicative skills of speaking, writing, reading and listening.
Test takers register for a test and can view their results online. However, they must go to a test center to sit the test, under secure conditions. PTE Academic uses automated scoring, providing greater reliability. Scores are usually available within five days, and test takers indicate the programs that they wish their results to be sent to, after which the recognizing institutions securely download the PTE Academic scores.
PTE Academic has three parts, with an introduction and optional break:
