Description
As English proficiency tests like PTE (Pearson Test of English) and PEIC (Pearson English International Certificate) gain wider recognition in Vietnam - including official acceptance by several universities - there is a growing demand for high-quality preparation tools.
This presentation introduces Pearson’s official mock test system, provided through PTE Leader, a digital platform designed to simulate real test conditions and provide instant, automated scoring. While the system is typically limited to official partners, it offers significant benefits for both teachers and learners seeking structured, realistic test preparation.
The session will focus on how educators can use the platform effectively: from navigating test features to analyzing learner performance data for formative assessment. Instead of showcasing a live classroom, the workshop will provide a guided demo from the teacher’s perspective, walking participants through mock test setup, feedback interpretation, and suggestions for integrating the tool into various learning contexts.
This hands-on overview aims to equip participants with practical knowledge to support learners and optimize outcomes for high-stakes English exams like PTE and PEIC using technology to bridge the gap between teaching, learning, and assessment.
