Your essay will be scored zero in PTE writing section. Also you have to support any arguments with details, examples and explanations.

PTE Essay Writing Universal Template

One of the conspicuous trends of today’s world is a colossal upsurge in the number of people believing that <negative point of the topic> . There is a widespread worry that this will lead to a myriad of concerns in one’s life. However, I do not entirely accept this and I will explain why in this essay. There are a number of arguments in favor of my stance. Most preponderant one is that <positive point of the topic> and there are numerous other benefits in various fields. Thanks to the wide range of advantages it offers, not only one benefit more when it comes to being effective, but they can enhance productivity and quality of their lives, with much ease, efficacy, and convenience. Needless to say, all these merits stand one in good stead, as far as augmenting the chances of prosperity and excellence is concerned. Another pivotal factor in the aforementioned proposition is that it is only likely to help one thrive and excel in varied areas. Besides, when only one follows such a system, can they broaden their horizons, thus learning such attributes as dedication and perseverance. Hence, it is apparent why many are in favor of <positive key point> . In the views of the arguments outlined above, one can conclude that the benefits of <positive key point> are indeed too great to ignore.

This is one universal template, which we can use for any type of essays. Start with an introduction, two body paragraphs and conclusion at the end. Again, with this template you can get 79+ but you have to make sure that the other writing tasks should be attended well without any mistakes. Don’t worry about the different prompts such as agree or disagree or advantages or disadvantages, you can use the same template for all types of essays. Using this template you can score in grammar, spelling, vocabulary and written discourse as well.

Now we will see example for each type of essays.

Agree or disagree

Big salary is much more important than job satisfaction. Do you agree or disagree? Provide relevant examples if necessary. Here they have directly given as agree or disagree. Sometimes they will not mention this and we have to identify by understanding the topic. Always mention the negative side of the topic in the first paragraph. Some contradicting point relevant to the main idea in the second paragraphs and supporting points in the subsequent paragraphs..

Using Template One of the conspicuous trends of today’s world is a colossal upsurge in the number of people believing that low salary is more disadvantageous . There is a widespread worry that this will lead to a myriad of concerns in one’s life. However, I do not entirely accept this and I will explain why in this essay. There are a number of arguments in favor of my stance. Most preponderant one is that job satisfaction gives people a sense of fulfillment and there are numerous other benefits in various fields. Thanks to the wide range of advantages it offers, not only one benefit more when it comes to being effective, but they can enhance productivity and quality of their lives, with much ease, efficacy, and convenience. Needless to say, all these merits stand one in good stead, as far as augmenting the chances of prosperity and excellence is concerned. Another pivotal factor in the aforementioned proposition is that it is only likely to help one thrive and excel in varied areas.

Hence, it is apparent why many are in favor of job satisfaction . In the views of the arguments outlined above, one can conclude that the benefits of job satisfaction are indeed too great to ignore.

Here, there is a widespread worry and leads to a concern. People are worrying that low salary is a concern. However, I do not entirely accept because low salary is fine for me as long as I get job satisfaction. Please make a note of this point. Since we are not agreeing, always mention the negative point in the introduction and the contradicting point should be positive in body paragraph1. In this way, you can follow the same template for any essay in PTE writing. Also you will not go out of the topic.

Big salary is much more important than job satisfaction. I am going to mention low salary is disadvantage instead of big salary is advantage. Because I am going to support points for job satisfaction. Big salary is not important for me compared to job satisfaction. Therefore, I am mentioning big salary as negative point. Myriad – is an academic vocabulary. We have enough vocabularies in this template like this.

There are number of arguments in favour of my stance. Most preponderant one is that job satisfaction… here job satisfaction is a contradicting point to low salary. Wide range of advantages, benefit, broaden their horizons – These are all supporting points to this sentence. Hence it is apparent why many are in favour of job satisfaction. In conclusion also job satisfaction are indeed too great to ignore. After replacing the points just read the entire essay once again to make sure that the points are fit to the template in terms of content and grammar. And also check the spelling mistakes if any. Here we are getting 227 words and it is totally fine.

Discuss two opinions

Some people point that experiential learning can work well in formal education. However, others think a traditional form of teaching is the best. Do you think experiential learning can work well in high schools or colleges?

What type of essay is this? ‘Experiential learning and traditional form of teaching’. So two points mentioned here and ‘Do you think’ is asking our opinion. So discuss two opinions is the prompt.

Again mention which one you don’t support in the introduction paragraph, but negatively. People believing that experiential learning is best compared to traditional way of education. Here I am mentioning traditional way of education is not the best as negatively. And it is mentioned as concern to people but I am not accepting it. I am supporting experiential learning is the best. Hence, mention some points of experiential learning in body paragraph1. In body paragraph2, it is apparent why many are in favour of experiential learning and even in conclusion as well. Read the entire essay once for proofreading.

Some universities deduct students’ marks if work is given late. What is your opinion and recommend some alternative actions for this problem?

Here it is mentioned as problem and asking for solution. Recommend some alternative actions – solution. So it should be problems and solutions. Negative point of the topic – already the topic itself has some negative point – Deduct students’ marks. Mention it in introduction.

People believing that some universities reduce students’ marks for late submission of their assignments. Is this a concern? No I do not entirely accept this. Because students learn to manage time. Here it is not necessary to provide new solution. Time management is the solution here. Remember that we can write an essay in PTE writing section using many different ideas. But the structure and relevant information are the key to score more points. In body paragraph2, it is in favour of time management and in conclusion as well.

Causes and Effects

The time people devote in job leaves very little time for personal life. How widespread is the problem? What problem will this shortage of time cause?

Here also there is a problem statement but here solution is not asked. What effects will this problem can create? So causes and effects is the prompt here. Shortage of time for personal life leads to many family problems – negative side of the topic.

Explain why this is not a problem – in long term perspective one can achieve high standard of living, variations in lifestyle, luxurious life with the family – these are the effects, positive effects. There are negative effects as well such as disputes among families, stress and depression due to lot of work but that is not required to mention. And in body paragraph2, mention why many are in favour of – spending less time for family. Same point in conclusion as well.

With the increase of digital media available online, the role of the library has become obsolete. Universities should only procure digital media rather than constantly updating textbooks. Discuss both the advantages and disadvantages.

So we have to discuss both advantages and disadvantages. Advantages of digital media outweighs drawbacks in library is the negative point. So the contradicting point is digital media provides latest information in one click. Therefore, many are in favour of digital media. Simple.

So this is how we can use the same template for all types of essays. Read the topic, write the template quickly in the textbox and then modify the topic sentence and supporting points. Finally verify if everything is correct. However if you still have dilemma whether you can use the template or not, you can use the method, which we will discuss now. Before moving on to the method, we will quickly see some tips and strategies to avoid any mistakes and utilize the 20 minutes time wisely.

PTE Essay Writing Tips and Strategies

Before you start writing, you need to plan what you are going to write. Read the topic and plan your ideas in the first 2 minutes. Gather some relevant points, your experience related to the topic and some supporting points if any. Take 15 minutes to write and review in the last 3 minutes. This will save you from having to stop and restart from the beginning. Check the grammar and spelling mistakes if any. You have to read the entire essay, word by word to make sure error free text and get full points in grammar and spelling.

Always use the structure and limit the number of lines. Introduction, 2 body paragraphs and a conclusion. This will do to write around 230 to 260 words, which is more than enough. But how will you check if you will be able to complete your essay in PTE writing within the word limit. Though you can see the word count at the bottom, even when you complete the first body paragraph itself, sometimes you will be reaching around 180 to 200 words. Therefore, limit the number of lines for each paragraph as mentioned below.

Introduction – not more than 2 lines. Body paragraphs – 3 and 1/2 to 4 lines each. Conclusion – 1 to 1 and 1/2 lines.

This itself will bring you around 270 words. Here I am just talking about the number of lines based on the textbox given in the PTE test. In each line we can write around 25 to 30 words. Therefore, for 10 lines we can easily get around 260 to 270 words. Don’t write many points in body paragraph1 itself. Then you need to reduce your points in paragraph2. If you reach up to 4 sentences in first paragraph then complete the sentence and start writing the next paragraph. Believe me! You can save much time if you follow this strategy.

Avoid very long sentences. The more you extend your sentences, the more likely you will be to make grammar and punctuation errors. Make it simple and clear. Use complex sentences though but not very big sentences. Build your vocabulary skill by reading newspapers or hearing BBC news channel without video. Hear only the audio news to concentrate more.

Let us see how you have to structure your essay using the method.

PTE Essay Writing Method

Even in the method as well, you have to stick to the structure to get more points in written discourse. Always start with introduction, 2 body paragraphs and a conclusion.

Introduction Let us have a look on how to write the introduction. For introduction, just paraphrase the topic sentence and add a supporting point. You can start the introduction as, It is often argued that, It is commonly believed that etc.

Body Paragraph1 Start the first body paragraph as To begin with, First of all or Firstly. And then continue the paragraph with supporting points using Secondly and Finally.

Body Paragraph2 Start the second paragraph with Nevertheless or However with some contradicting points for the first paragraph and mention how it can be resolved. You can also extend your second paragraph by supporting the paragraph1 instead of arguing against it using Moreover or Furthermore.

In addition, support your points with some examples. You can include any relevant examples from your own experience or knowledge. Start the example using For instance, To illustrate, In my own experience etc. If you support your points with examples, you will get more points to add and you can easily make it relevant to the topic.

Conclusion Finally, write the conclusion as In conclusion or To conclude, and mention which statement is most convincing to support the topic sentence.

Each of these paragraphs need only a few sentences to clearly get your point. And finally proofread your content to make sure you don’t do any spelling or grammar mistakes. Now we will see how to use the method for this topic. We have already seen this example using template. Apply all the points that we discussed now.

Big salary is much more important than job satisfaction. Do you agree or disagree? Provide relevant examples if necessary.

Use the below structure.

It is often argued that First of all, For example, Secondly, For instance, Thus, In conclusion,

Using Method It is often argued that it is more advantageous to choose a job with high wage, even if it does not appeal to you at all. I completely disagree with this opinion and think that job satisfaction is much more important than salary. First of all, I believe that job satisfaction gives people a sense of fulfillment that no money can guarantee. Even if someone is earning a high salary but feels tensed, this person would not enjoy his life. While pursuing one’s interests will always bring pleasure and feeling of satisfaction. For example, a lot of famous researchers made their career choices not because of appealing wages, but because they were passionate about science. That is why it is more important to choose the kind of work that makes you happy than to look only at a high salary. Secondly, doing what you like keeps you motivated and therefore leads to a career growth. In other words, there is a strong relation between job satisfaction and productivity. People who love their jobs can easily excel in their fields of work than those, who put salary on the first place. For instance, in my company many people are working for more than 25 years despite a good wage. Consequently, others moved out for high salary but struggling to achieve better results. Thus, advantages of jobs that keep you satisfied outweigh the drawback of low salary in a long-term perspective. In conclusion, I strongly believe that job satisfaction is more beneficial than high salary because it makes people happy and motivated.

So this is how it should be. Paraphrase the introduction – instead of more important you can mention as more advantageous. Don’t use abbreviations and colloquial language. Always expand the words and maintain academic English. Here I am disagreeing the statement of big salary, adding points for job satisfaction and the supporting points with examples using my own experience and then the conclusion part. Here I did not use much vocabularies but use atleast few words. So this is how we can use the method. And don’t forget to proofread your essay.

Allow one space between each paragraph. This is not mandatory but leaving one space will be good to show the completion of the paragraph. And you can use delete or backspace button anytime. That is not a problem. You can correct your content until you write error free essay. You can paste this sample in pte.tools to check how many lines we will get for 260 words in the real exam. 1 and 1/2 lines for introduction, 3 to 4 lines for body paragraphs and 1 line for conclusion and we got 260 words. This is how you can limit the number of words based on number of lines.

Sentences to increase the word count

Here are some sentences that I have gathered from some sample essays. This helps to bring you some ideas related to the topic using which you can build your own points. I always add two or more sentences from this list in my essays, which save my time while thinking about the ideas.

Helps the country’s economy to be stable.
The research is quite possibly biased on one side.
It is the government that needs to take measures to ameliorate such problems.
Admittedly, this may be cumbersome to administer, however, an attempt could be made to get it off the ground.
Attempts should be made to redress the imbalance.
It is often the case that people would rather not use.
I would argue there is sufficient evidence to demonstrate that this is not the case, and, therefore, steps must be taken to improve it.
Which socio-economic group consumes more (either lower income people or wealthier people).
Governments offer large subsidies to farmers.
It is destroying traditional forms of communication such as letter writing, telephone and face-to-face conversation.
The children accessing unsuitable websites and viruses is inevitable.
An ocean of opportunities.
In conclusion, despite the fact that there are benefits.

Brush up these sentences before going to the exam and try to remember as much as possible.

That’s all I have for essays. Use the 20 minutes time wisely for understanding the topic and plan your ideas in the first 2 minutes, write the essay within 13 to 15 minutes, review and correct it in the last 3 minutes. Also, write only a maximum of 10 lines. Introduction – 2 lines, body paragraphs – 3 to 4 lines each and conclusion – 1 to 1 and 1/2 lines. Along with checking on the word count, you can count the lines and structure your essay in this way.

Paraphrase the topic in the introduction, highlight the supporting points and contradicting points in body paragraphs with some examples in your own experience and then conclude with some solution or on one side of the topic depends upon what type of topic that you get. Remember that anyone can write the essay within the given timeframe if they have the right tools. I hope with these information, writing an essay will be very easy for you. Thank you for reading my post till the end.

Your stand (or viewpoint) on the issue should be mentioned in your introduction (but only in opinion articles, in others just provide a short description as your introduction.)

Here is a sample introduction for the above question about the death penalty:

Capital punishment, or the death penalty, is when an individual is sentenced to death for a crime considered to be serious according to a nation’s laws. Some say everyone has the right to live, regardless of their crime. However, it can be argued in cases of crimes such as murder, that offenders should be punished by death. This is my belief too, therefore capital punishment should not be abolished.

What is a great PTE essay structure?

Introduction Argument 1 (for) Argument 2 (for or against) Conclusion

The body of your essay should be at least 2 or 3 paragraphs. In total you will have 4 or 5 paragraphs, depending on the essay prompt and how many points you choose to write about.

For instance:

Paragraph 1: Introduction
Paragraph 2: Argument 1 (e.g. for capital punishment)
Paragraph 3: Argument 2 (e.g. against capital punishment)

Paragraph 4: Conclusion

Regarding the conclusion you have 2 main choices:

Say which argument is most convincing in your opinion.

Summarize arguments from paragraphs 2 & 3.

Start each body paragraph with a topic sentence, which is the main point of the paragraph, then explain it and give examples.

Note that every paragraph must connect to the one before it to keep your PTE essay flowing. This makes it easy for the reader to follow your writing.

See the previous article on how to use linking words to connect your paragraphs and the points within each paragraph.

Paragraph 2: This is where you start providing your arguments for or against the issue of capital punishment.

Many people believe capital punishment is a justifiable penalty for serious crimes such as murder. Their belief is if you deliberately take the life of another human being you forfeit your right to live and should be put to death. People in favor of the death penalty also say their taxes should not be wasted providing for criminals to live their life in prison, especially if they are deemed a permanent threat to society. If murderers and the like are unable to be rehabilitated and, therefore, cannot contribute to society, the death penalty is warranted. Furthermore, proponents of capital punishment believe it acts as a deterrent to heinous crimes and is, consequently, an apt punishment for such crimes.

Paragraph 3: Continue with the flow of the previous paragraph and provide your next argument or point.

On the other hand, there are, of course, people who are completely against capital punishment, regardless of the crime committed. They say no one has the right to kill another human being and if a court of law sentences someone to death it is just the same as murdering them. Those against the death penalty believe dangerous criminals should be jailed and given a chance to mend their wicked ways, for example through rehabilitation programs set up for such people in prison.

This is the final paragraph of your essay.

Sum up by briefly rephrasing your arguments in 2 or 3 sentences.
Do not copy word for word what you have already written.
Keep it short and precise and do not add any new ideas.

In conclusion, capital punishment is deemed by many people to be absolutely necessary and justified in order to keep society safe, while others believe death by law is no different to death by unlawful means in that they are both murder. I believe we need the death penalty. When someone deliberately kills another person and the legal system has found them to be beyond rehabilitation, the death penalty is warranted, rather than the offender spending the rest of their life in jail contributing nothing to the betterment of society.

Here is the entire PTE essay on capital punishment for you to read again:

Extra writing tip: Read every day

You may say, thanks for this very basic tip! So, why am I saying this?

Because, memorizing word lists is not the way to build your vocabulary bank .

The best way is reading real language in books, magazines and newspapers.

Make it a daily habit and you will quickly learn and remember more words, and the ways they are used by native speakers. Moreover, you will also improve your grammar !

Language learners and test takers understandably try to use “new” or “big” words, however they often use them incorrectly. This is how you learn the collocations list.

To convey a message
To cover a topic
To conduct a survey

For some actions, it is important to use the proper verb. To say a message doesn't sound right, right?

That is why memorizing word lists is a bad habit because that doesn’t teach you how to use words in the right context.

As you can see, writing a PTE essay can be simplified once you follow a proper structure.

Try to practice at least 5 to 10 questions following our steps above, and you'll see, you'll start writing in less time and get better results.

Additionally, I'd recommend you to memorize a couple of PTE essay templates. I'll attach one to this page in a couple of days.

What makes writing an essay so challenging for you? Do you have difficulties with grammar/vocabulary, or you don't know what to say? Let us know, and we'll provide you solutions.

A Guide to PTE Essay Writing: Scoring & Structure

Video Guide

#Skill 1: Content

#skill 2: form, #skill 3: vocabulary, #skill 4: spelling, #skill 5: grammar, #skill 6: development, structure and coherence, #skill 7: general linguistic range, introduction:, main body paragraphs:.

We have all had experience writing essays in our studies and this may lead us to think that we can approach the PTE academic writing task without doing much revision or practice. If we concentrate on revising our English grammar and vocabulary, we can just turn up to the exam and produce our essay, right? WRONG! There are a few things you need to know first about the PTE essay and some practice that you will need to do before the exam.

Don’t be scared off by this, achieving a high score in the essay task is certainly possible; many have passed with flying colours and so will you. You just need to gain a good understanding of what is required of you so that you know what to expect and can put the steps in place to satisfy the scoring system. A good place to start is to develop an awareness of how to structure your essay and how it will be scored. In this section of the PTE, it is expected that you will follow an appropriate essay structure and your writing will be scored according to a certain set of criteria. We’ll tell you everything you need to know about both of these areas so that your essays will tick all the right boxes.

When approaching any exam task, it is always a good idea to get inside the mind of your assessor, or in this case, the automated assessor! This is like having some inside information that will give you the edge over other candidates, so read carefully! Often candidates may be quite happy with their essay and don’t understand why it hasn’t made the grade. It may well be a good piece of writing in some respects, but if it doesn’t satisfy the elements that the scoring system is looking for, it will not be up to scratch. As you will be aware, you are looking to achieve 70 + in your essay and you will need to meet the criteria in all the categories to reach that score.

Let’s have a look at the PTE guidelines for assessing the essay task. There are 7 key skill-sets that will be taken into account when your essay is marked.

You may have perfect grammar and a wonderful range of vocabulary, but if you go off topic, this will negatively affect your score. It is surprisingly easy to start an essay focused on the prompt and writing about the issue or question specified and then to veer off in the wrong direction later on in the essay. Ensure that you keep referring back to the question prompt and stay on topic. Noting down a short plan at the beginning can help to keep you on track.

Form in this criteria set refers to the amount of words in which you complete the essay. In the case of the PTE academic essay, the word limit is 200-300 words. Do NOT go under or over this amount as you will likely be penalised for this and the word limit is there for a reason. It is a reasonable number of words to write in the given time, allowing you to provide detail and show off your writing skills in a succinct manner.

The wider your vocabulary knowledge, the better. Repetition is a common reason that students are marked down on the vocabulary section, so having synonyms available in your mental word bank is invaluable. A varied range of vocabulary also helps to keep your writing engaging and interesting.

Some marks will be given for accuracy in the spelling of words. As you will already know, the way to improve your spelling is simply a mixture of learning and revising spelling patterns and words and using these words again and again in your writing until they stay in your brain! Be careful with words with similar spellings and become aware of the spelling patterns with which you make frequent mistakes.

There are so many different areas of grammar that will be assessed and that you need to gain a good grasp of to produce good-quality writing , that we won’t go over them all here. Some common areas for development are the use of articles and tenses. You need to become aware of your areas of weakness through feedback from teachers or online tutors so that you know which grammar points you personally need to work on.

We will discuss the structure in more detail in the next section but in short, you will need to write your essay using an appropriate essay format, presenting information in a logical order with the correct use of paragraphs, linked by cohesive devices so that your writing flows in a meaningful way.

This refers to your ability to adequately communicate your ideas, concepts and arguments with a good level of language knowledge and ability, so that you get your points across in a direct and engaging manner.

There are various formats that an essay can take. This, of course depends on the purpose, length, level and area of study. Regarding the PTE essay, we must bear in mind that the essay is fairly short (200-300 words) and is to be completed within a short time-frame (20 minutes). Thus, it makes sense to follow a basic essay format. It is really important to stick to this format as not only does it satisfy the demands of the scoring system, it helps you to present your ideas in a coherent way and avoids the essay becoming over-complicated.

If you include the following sections, you are on the right track with your essay structure.

Before putting forward your arguments and examples, you must introduce the topic. This entails giving a summary of the prompt in your own words and outlining what your essay will cover. As with all paragraphs, the introduction should link coherently to the first body paragraph.

How many body paragraphs you include is up to you and may depend on the number of points you wish to make or what has been demanded in the prompt. However, bear in mind that you only have 20 minutes, so generally stick to 2-3 paragraphs. In the body paragraphs, you will be presenting and discussing your main points and arguments related to the topic. The first body paragraph should include a topic sentence and you should also write at least one example to exemplify one of the points that you have chosen to put forward.

It is essential to finish your essay with a conclusion. It is worth noting that often, candidates scrimp on their conclusion as they may be running out of time and energy! Although you do not need a lengthy conclusion, it should summarise some of the key points and arguments and possibly give a final concluding opinion or argument depending on the requirements of the essay questions. One line is not enough!

The advice above is really important to take note of and use when you are revising and completing practice essays , as you won’t be able to remember it all when it comes to the actual exam. If you refer to the scoring and structure guidelines every time you do a piece of writing, you will soon be writing confidently and fluently, and impressing the assessors on exam day. Good luck!

Identify Essay Type: Determine the type of essay you need to write—whether it’s an opinion essay, argumentative essay, discussion essay, or another type. This will guide your approach to structuring and presenting your ideas.
Brainstorm Ideas: Before you start writing, brainstorm ideas related to the topic. Jot down key points, arguments, and examples that you can use to support your thesis statement.
Develop a Clear Thesis Statement: Formulate a clear and concise thesis statement that outlines your main argument or position on the topic. Your thesis statement should provide a roadmap for your essay.
Plan Your Essay Structure: Organize your ideas logically and plan the structure of your essay. Typically, an essay includes an introduction, body paragraphs (each addressing a separate point), and a conclusion.
Use Topic Sentences: Begin each body paragraph with a clear topic sentence that introduces the main idea or argument of that paragraph. This helps maintain coherence and clarity in your essay.
Provide Relevant Examples and Evidence: Support your arguments with relevant examples, evidence, statistics, or anecdotes. Use concrete examples to illustrate your points and make your arguments more persuasive.
Address Counterarguments: Acknowledge and address potential counterarguments to your thesis. This demonstrates critical thinking and strengthens your argument by anticipating and refuting opposing viewpoints.
Maintain Coherence and Cohesion: Ensure that your essay flows smoothly from one paragraph to the next. Use cohesive devices such as transition words and phrases to connect ideas and maintain coherence.
Be Concise and Clear: Express your ideas clearly and concisely. Avoid unnecessary repetition or verbosity. Use precise language and avoid ambiguity to convey your message effectively.

Note:

Common Pitfalls to Avoid For PTE Essay Topics

Avoiding common pitfalls is essential for successfully addressing PTE essay topics. Here are some pitfalls to be mindful of and tips to avoid them:

Misinterpreting the Prompt: Read the essay prompt carefully and ensure you understand what is being asked. Misinterpreting the prompt can lead to off-topic responses and lower scores.
Lack of Organization and Coherence: Plan your essay structure before you start writing to ensure logical flow and coherence. Each paragraph should focus on a single main idea, with clear transitions between paragraphs.
Overly Complex Language or Vocabulary: While it’s important to demonstrate language proficiency, avoid using overly complex language or vocabulary that may confuse the reader. Aim for clarity and simplicity in your writing.
Failure to Address All Aspects of the Topic: Ensure that your essay addresses all aspects of the topic as outlined in the prompt. Failing to do so can result in an incomplete or inadequate response.
Neglecting to Revise and Edit: Allocate time for revising and editing your essay before submitting it. Check for grammatical errors, spelling mistakes, and punctuation errors. Ensure that your essay is well-structured and coherent.
Lack of Supporting Evidence or Examples: Back up your arguments with relevant evidence, examples, statistics, or anecdotes. Providing concrete examples strengthens your arguments and makes your essay more persuasive.
Bias or One-Sided Argument : Present a balanced view of the topic by acknowledging and addressing opposing viewpoints. Avoid being overly biased or presenting a one-sided argument.
Exceeding Word Limit: Stick to the recommended word limit for your essay. Exceeding the word limit may result in penalization and can detract from the clarity and coherence of your essay.
Relying on Personal Opinion Without Support: While it’s important to express your opinion, ensure that it is supported by evidence or reasoning. Avoid relying solely on personal opinion without providing adequate support.
Lack of Clarity in Expression: Clearly express your ideas and arguments to ensure that they are easily understood by the reader. Avoid ambiguity or vague language that may obscure your message.

Mastering PTE essay topics is a crucial aspect of succeeding in the PTE Academic exam. By understanding the different types of essay topics, identifying key elements, and implementing effective strategies, you can significantly improve your writing skills and boost your chances of achieving a high score.

Remember to practice regularly, seek feedback, and stay focused during the exam. With dedication and perseverance, you can conquer any PTE essay topic that comes your way.

PTE Write Essay

PTE Write Essay is one of the only two tasks in PTE Academic Writing section, the other task is PTE Summarise Written Text .

In PTE Write Essay task, you will be

prompted with an essay topic, usually 2 -3 sentences.
writing a 200 – 300 word essay
given 20 minutes time limit to answer

In this PTE Write Essay, you should focus on writing for a purpose. Depending on the subject of essay topic, your purpose for example, could inform readers about a new trend and its implication or persuade readers on the view of a given topic.

To achieve your purpose, the essay content must contain additional information such as supporting your opinion with details and examples or even explanations as long as it could bring strong arguments.

Finally, the goal is to conceptualize and develop your ideas, arguments, examples and combine all aforementioned components to form the complete essay answer.

The most effective way to plan yourself is to familiarize the common types of topics in PTE Write Essay, as we are the expert in collecting real exam questions and our experience tells us that PTE essay topics can be roughly categorized in the following:

law and policy
Science and Technology
Environment

Obviously, this list is non exhaustive as there are some other odd question topics. so if you want to know more details about the actual topics and answers, please look into our PTE Exam Question Bank as it contains not only just real exam essay topics we have collected over the years but also model answers and useful essay template, which will help you to tackle this task.

Structure – 2 points:

Good essay writing requires concise and logical structure, PTE essay is no exception. In fact, PTE promotes a systematic structural approach with clear introduction, main body parts and conclusion, all which is designed to make the computerized marking system more effective.

The key feature of a high score essay is to ensure that paragraphs follow a natural flow of development, what it means is that the sequence of your paragraphs should easily identify strong correlations from paragraph A to paragraph B and to paragraph C. The content should be coherent, and you should avoid writing about unrelated loose elements.

Choice of words and sentence structure – 4 points:

Now, you understand the topic, and you have a plan of attack. Your score is determined by how you choose to deliver your response. In PTE Write Essay, you are assessed by using good choice of words and by structuring your response effectively and precisely while delivering your thoughts. In other words, you goal is to demonstrate your capability of using right choices of words (a sound grasp of vocabularies) and arrange them accordingly to eliminate ambiguity.

So you might be confused and say “I’m confused, what do you mean?”, let’s use below 2 sentences to illustrate our choice of words and observe the difference.

“Large shopping mall is making small shops lose sales and it’s causing them to close down .”

“Business for small shops is diminishing at an alarming rate and large shopping malls are the major contributor to this decline .”

Despite telling basically the same story, there is a striking contrast in the quality just by using a different sentence structure with right choice of words, if you could construct your response in a similar manner then it certainly would alleviate your score.

Content – 3 points:

The “main course” of the PTE Write Essay is to produce content that could address all aspects of a given topic and support your response with adequate examples or explanation. This is where your brain switches on and get creative on the subject. But wait. Before you put yourself too deep in the train of thoughts, it is very important to read the prompt and make sure you FULLY UNDERSTAND the question.

1. Start by analysing the task

Analysing these four areas will help you to approach the task, structure your essay and decide on your main ideas.

2. Take the time to plan your points

You may need to argue for and against an opinion or discuss advantages and disadvantages of a situation. If there is a statement followed by a question, read the question very carefully and note key words. Make sure you know what to do.

If it is an “agree or disagree” topic, you can either support or go against the topic when structuring your essay. Whatever side you choose, make sure you stick to it. Changing the mind halfway or wandering off topic will only waste your valuable time and impact your scores. The only way to stick to your points while writing in PTE exam would be to choose the direction you want your content to sway in and then not digress!

3. Construct your content

The content of your essay is crucial, which is scored by determining if all aspects of the topic have been addressed in the response and if provided details, examples and explanations are appropriately supporting the test taker’s point of view.

Be creative, as long as your idea is not off topic! If you do not address the topic, the response will be scored zero on all traits.

Spelling, Grammar, Formal – 6 points

Very simple and self explanatory, you will be awarded :

2 points for no spelling error
2 points for no obvious grammar mistakes
2 points for writing within 200-300 words

These should be easy marks you must capitalize on, especially for writing with in the word limit as there is a word count display during the test.

Total 15 points.

Sample Essay - PTE Real Exam Essay Topic

Let’s have a look at one real exam essay topic and here is our interpretation on this task:

In a cashless society, people use more credit cards, do you think cashless society is realistic and why? What are the advantages and disadvantages?

Cashless society is in the centre of discussion in recent times, substantial arguments have been raised on whether or not we should embrace cashless transaction. Needless to say, cashless movement is inevitable as there has been an upsurge in the adoption of electronic payment from the public. Therefore, both side of the equation associated with such payment method will be discussed to provide detailed insights on the implication in cashless adoption.

To achieve cashless, one must first acknowledge that there is a plethora of benefits associated with cashless transaction. In the modern world where society is moving at increasingly faster pace, convenience is an undisputed selling point in many technological advances. Unlike cash payment, electronic payments not only speed up the action of moving money from one party to another but also eliminate the need to perform difference calculation which is susceptible to human error. As the entire process is computerized in the absence of physical contact, its simplicity therefore allows faster, accurate and most of all, convenient transactional experience.

On the other hand, moving to cashless usually implies surrendering one’s anonymity as each electronic transaction is documented. Generally speaking, most cashless transaction uses credit or debit card issued by financial institutes that profiles individuals spending patterns. The data compiled by these banks could be used for exploitative nature such as targeted advertising or other invasive agendas. Regardless one’s choice between convenience or privacy, its drawback should not be overlooked.

In light of discussion above, it can be concluded that the impact of credit card is prominent, although the way electronic transactions might invade privacy should not be overlooked.

However, writing templates supply model responses, that match with specific types of prompts. Understanding each of them can help you apply suitable samples aligned with the essay request.

Here are the most common PTE essay types:

Argument: This type provides two sides of an argument. It requires you to take a stance on an issue and provide supporting evidence. Your goal is to persuade the reader of your viewpoint with reasonable explanations and examples.
Advantages and disadvantages: In this topic, you need to examine the pros and cons of a given topic, presenting a balanced assessment of its advantages and disadvantages.
Agree and disagree: This writing form will give you a point and ask you to state an opinion (agree or disagree). After that, you also need to explain your choice, and give some evidence and examples to support your idea.
Problems and solutions: In this essay, you have to identify a problem and propose solutions. Your essay should discuss the problem’s causes and effects and offer practical solutions.
Essay on a given topic: Sometimes, PTE will provide a specific topic or question for you to address. Your task is to solve the required problem, respond concisely and directly to the prompt.

Overall, each type of prompt corresponds with one template writing. Before writing, you need to identify what types of topics you encounter to apply the right template.

Effective PTE essay writing template for maximum scores

Now that you know why templates are beneficial and the various essay types you might encounter, let’s delve into an effective PTE essay writing template that can help you score maximum points.

In general, each type of prompt has a different template to follow. However, it is normally based on a fixed essay skeleton including Introduction , Body paragraph , and Conclusion . Below is the model outline you can consider:

Introduction (about 40-50 words)

In this part, you need to:

Start with a hook or a general statement related to the topic, remember to paraphrase the requirement.
Clearly state your thesis or main point.
Provide a brief overview of the points you will discuss.

Body paragraph (about 200 words)

This part often contains two single paragraphs. Each of them is about 100 words in length. The structure of the body can include:

Topic sentence: Begin each paragraph with a clear topic sentence that connects to your thesis.
Explanation (about 1-2 sentences): You need to give some reasons explicating your point. Don’t forget to use transition words to connect your ideas and maintain a smooth flow.
Supporting details (Optional): After explanation, it’s essential to provide evidence, examples, or statistics to support your topic sentence. With these details, your idea can be clarified better.
Counterargument (Optional): Last but not least, you can address opposing viewpoints and explain why they are less valid. This sentence would strengthen your statement, and make it more persuadable.

Conclusion (about 40-50 words)

At the end of all writing, a conclusion is unavoidable. This part asks you to:

Summarize your main points.
Restate your thesis or main point in another expression way.
Provide a closing thought or call to action related to the topic.

Above is the general format of the PTE essay. You also need to adapt this template to the specific essay type you’re writing.

For instance, an argumentative essay will require a stronger emphasis on presenting and refuting opposing views, while the agree and disagree article will focus more on expressing your viewpoint.

Notice that the given structure is for reference. You don’t need to follow it 100% when writing as long as you make sure that your ideas are supported well.

4 PTE writing examples for all essay types

To truly grasp the power of templates, let’s explore some PTE writing examples for each essay type. These examples will showcase how the template can be customized to fit various essay prompts.

Argumentative Essay Sample

Prompt: “Should governments provide free healthcare for all citizens?”

Introduction

The important thing you need to do is to paraphrase the prompt and give out your opinion. For example:

Governments worldwide face the perennial question of whether they should let all citizens approach healthcare for free (paraphrase). In this essay, I will argue in favor of this policy, emphasizing that accessible healthcare is a fundamental right (state an opinion).

Body paragraph 1:

Topic Sentence: Free healthcare ensures equitable access to medical services.

Explanation: In countries where healthcare is free, citizens from all socioeconomic backgrounds receive necessary medical care.

Supporting details: This eliminates the disparity in healthcare access between the affluent and less privileged segments of society.

Body Paragraph 2:

Topic Sentence: Free healthcare reduces the financial burden on individuals.

Explanation: In nations with free healthcare, individuals do not face exorbitant medical bills, reducing financial stress. This improves overall well-being and economic stability for citizens.

Support details: According to statistics, 43 countries in the world have free healthcare for their citizens and most of them are developed countries.

Conclusion:

Restate your opinion: In conclusion, providing free healthcare to all citizens is not just a moral imperative but also a pragmatic solution to many societal issues. It ensures equitable access, relieves financial burdens, and promotes public health.

Provide a call to action: Governments should prioritize this fundamental right.

Agree and disagree essay

Prompt: “Do you agree or disagree with the statement: ‘Technology is making people less creative’?”

Paraphrase: The impact of technology on human creativity is a topic of considerable debate.

State your opinion: In this essay, I will argue that while technology has altered the creative landscape, it does not stifle creativity.

Topic sentence: Technology provides new avenues for the creative industry.

Explanation: Platforms like social media and digital art tools enable individuals to explore and showcase their creativity. Creators can connect to each other easily. Therefore, they can update, and learn from each other to improve themselves. Otherwise, the internet provides a wealth of information and inspiration at one’s fingertips.

Supporting details: For instance, websites like Freepik are provided to provide a wide range of materials for people to create their work.

Body paragraph 2:

Topic Sentence: Technology challenges individuals to adapt creatively.

Explanation: The rapid evolution of technology necessitates creative problem-solving and adaptation. This constant innovation not only fuels creativity in individuals and industries but also puts them under pressure. That they have to use this as a supporting tool, not let this replace them.

Supporting details: The appearance of chat GPT threatens the jobs of many people, especially content creators. However, it can not replace people. Instead, individuals use it to serve their work.

Conclusion: In conclusion, technology’s impact on creativity is multifaceted, and it can both enhance and challenge creative expression. Ultimately, creativity is not stifled by technology; it is redefined and enriched in the digital age.

Advantages and disadvantages essay

Prompt: “Discuss the advantages and disadvantages of online learning”

Paraphrase: The rise of online learning is a revelation of education, but it also raises pertinent questions regarding its advantages and disadvantages. In this essay, we will explore both sides of the online learning debate.

Body paragraph 1 (About advantages)

Topic sentence: Firstly, let’s look into some pros of online education.

Pros 1: Online learning offers flexibility and convenience. Learners can access courses from anywhere at their own pace. This flexibility accommodates diverse schedules and lifestyles. For example, during the COVID-19 pandemic, students still can access education via online learning platforms.

Pros 2: Online learning reduces geographical barriers. It allows access to top-notch courses and instructors worldwide. This democratizes education and promotes inclusivity. For instance, people in Vietnam can easily take part in a workshop in the US on the Internet.

Body paragraph 2 (About disadvantages)

Topic sentence: Although it provides many advantages, online learning also has some side effects.

Cons 1: Online learning lacks the social interaction of traditional classrooms. Students miss out on face-to-face interactions and group dynamics. This can hinder the development of social skills and a sense of community.

Cons 2: Learning on the internet requires students to have suitable devices to connect. But not all students have that good life conditions. Poor people or those who live in remote areas would find it really difficult to access.

In conclusion, online learning presents a mixed bag of advantages and disadvantages. Its flexibility and accessibility are game-changers, but the absence of physical interaction and potential isolation are important considerations. A balanced approach to education must harness the best of both worlds.

Problems and solutions essay

Prompt: “Discuss the problem of air pollution in urban areas and propose solutions.”

Paraphrase: Air pollution in urban areas is a pressing issue with far-reaching consequences.

We will examine some causes and effects of this problem and propose effective solutions in this essay.

Body paragraph 1 (mention a cause and offer a solution for it) :

Cause: Urban air pollution is primarily caused by vehicle emissions. More and more cars are used nowadays, combined with the inadequate public transportation systems, elevating pollution in urban on the next level.

Solution: To solve this problem, it’s crucial to reduce vehicle emissions. Instead of driving cars, people can walk or use public transportation. In addition, the government implements strict emissions standards to control this problem.

Body paragraph 2:

Cause: In many areas of the world, millions of square kilometers of forest have been destroyed for human personal purposes. Forests are also considered as the green lungs of the earth. Lack of this natural shield, the air becomes more vulnerable.

Solution: People should protect and strive to cultivate more trees in the world. Moreover, the government also can intervene by enforcing strict regulations on deforestation.

In conclusion, urban air pollution is a multifaceted problem, but it is not insurmountable. As long as we take action to maintain and protect the air, cities can breathe easier and provide a healthier environment for their residents.

4 tips for memorizing the templates

Now that you’ve seen the power of templates, you might be wondering how to memorize them effectively. Here are some tips to help you commit these templates to memory:

Practice frequently

There’s simply no substitute for practice. The more you immerse yourself in utilizing the templates, the more ingrained they will become in your memory.

You need to write and write every day to get familiar with and gradually become proficient in template writing. Dedicate time each day to practice writing essays using the templates, and you’ll notice a significant improvement in your recall during the exam.

Visual aids

If you find it too hard to learn in a traditional way only, let’s try another way. You can create visually stimulating aids or flashcards that encapsulate the key components of the templates.

Visual cues can be highly effective in enhancing your memory. For instance, you might design a visual representation of the essay structure or use color-coded cues to signify different sections.

Break it down

Sometimes, memorizing the entire template can feel overwhelming.

To tackle this, you can break the template into manageable sections. Start by memorizing the introduction, then the body paragraphs, and finally the conclusion. By focusing on one part at a time, you’ll find it easier to grasp and remember the template as a whole.

Repetition is a fundamental technique for memorization. Repeatedly write out the template or recite it aloud. The more you engage with the material, the more firmly it will be etched in your memory.

After repetition, don’t forget to test yourself without looking at the template. Try to recall the structure and key points of the template from memory. This active recall technique strengthens your ability to remember the template during the exam.

In the world of PTE essay writing, templates are your trusty companions on the path to success. They provide structure, save time, and enhance your chances of scoring well. Understanding the various essay types and customizing your template accordingly is crucial.

The examples we’ve explored illustrate how templates can be adapted to address diverse prompts. With the right tools and knowledge, you can conquer this aspect of the PTE exam and excel in your endeavors.

Unlocking the Best PTE Essay Writing Template

Now, let’s unlock the secrets of the best PTE essay writing template. A well-structured template serves as a roadmap, ensuring your essay is organized, logical, and addresses all aspects of the prompt.

Essay Template:

One of the prevailing trends in contemporary society is the sudden surge in the assertion that _<Essay Statement>_ . This essay aims to explore the pros and cons of the above statement, which is closely tied to the notion that _<Essay Statement>_ , employing a practical perspective.

To start with, there are numerous arguments supporting my position. Among them, a crucial point not only entails societal improvement but also encompasses the positive development of individuals worldwide. Other aspects influenced by this topic include _<Keyword 1>_, _<Keyword 2>_, and _<Keyword 3>_. The myriad benefits associated with this perspective not only contribute to personal success and effectiveness but also enhance efficiency, productivity, and overall quality of life with remarkable efficacy and convenience.

Another pivotal aspect of the above statement is its potential to foster flourishing, progress, and excellence across various fields and disciplines. Consequently, considerations of _<Keyword 4>_, _<Keyword 5>_, and _<Keyword 6>_ are also integral to the overall assessment. Additionally, adherence to such a system is essential for individuals to broaden their horizons, refine skills, and cultivate qualities like commitment, dedication, and perseverance. Therefore, it is apparent why many endorse the idea that _<Essay Statement>_ .

In conclusion, I believe that the concerned authority is commendably taking proactive measures to educate the stakeholders about the adverse consequences of the statement that _<Essay Statement>_ . All stakeholders are being urged to comply with relevant laws, rules, and regulations to foster prosperity, productivity, efficiency, and a positive global environment.

How to Use PTE Essay Template?

First, get the ‘ Essay Statement ’ from the question. You can get 90-100% of the ‘ Essay Statement ’ from the given question. So, don’t worry about it.

Question: “ Acquiring knowledge of past events holds no worth for us living in the present. Do you agree or disagree?”

Essay Statement: “ Acquiring knowledge of past events holds no worth for us living in the present. ”

Question: “A few believe in relishing their earnings in the present , while others advocate for saving for a future time . What is your opinion?”

Essay Statement: “ Relishing earnings in the present instead of saving for a future time .” [look at the statement yourself, and see what is different from the question.]

Question: “The environment holds significance. Is it more beneficial for children to be brought up in the countryside than in a large city ? To what extent do you agree with this statement?”

Essay Statement: “ It is more beneficial for children to be brought up in the countryside than in a large city ” [converted the question into a normal sentence]

Now, find out 5-7 keywords related to the ‘ Essay Statement ’. It will be better if the half (2 to 3) of the keywords are about pros and the other half (2 to 3) are about cons. That’s it!

Essay Statement: “Acquiring knowledge of past events holds no worth for us living in the present.”

Preventing mistakes
Gaining wisdom
Informed decision
Selective bias
Time-consuming
Irrelevance risk

Essay Statement: “Relishing earnings in the present instead of saving for a future time.”

Immediate joy
Spontaneous fun
Memorable moments
Future security
Financial stability
Risk mitigation

Essay Statement: “It is more beneficial for children to be brought up in the countryside than in a large city.”

Simpler lifestyle
Community bond
Cleaner air
Isolation risk

What are the different types of PTE essay sample topics?

In the PTE (Pearson Test of English) Academic exam, there are two types of essay questions that may come in the Writing section:

Argumentative Essay (or Opinion Essay): In this type of essay, you will be presented with a topic or statement, and you need to express and support your opinion on it. In case you need help with these essays, seek help from the right PTE writing template. You should provide arguments, examples, and counterarguments, if applicable. Your task is to persuade the reader to agree with your viewpoint. It's essential to present a clear and structured argument while demonstrating your English language proficiency.

Argumentative PTE Essay Sample Topics:

Should governments invest more in renewable energy sources to combat climate change?
Is online education as effective as traditional classroom learning?
Should college education be free for all students?
Are mobile phones a distraction or a valuable educational tool in schools?
Should fast food advertising be banned to address the issue of childhood obesity?

Descriptive Essay (or Explanatory Essay): In this type of essay, you will be given a topic or subject, and your task is to describe, explain, or provide information about it. The focus is on presenting facts, details, and a comprehensive understanding of the topic. Your writing should be clear, organized, and informative.

Descriptive PTE Essay Sample Topics:

Describe the impact of social media on modern society.
Explain the process of photosynthesis and its importance in the plant kingdom.
Describe the cultural significance of a major festival in your country.
Explain the structure and function of the human digestive system.
Describe a historical event that had a profound impact on your country.

To make this process easier, let’s go around some points and evaluate the most effective method to write the PTE essay in the given time.

What is the strategy to write a PTE essay?

Step 1: content generation.

Read the PTE Writing question carefully and understand the requirements of the essay by reading the instructions. Once the question is clear to you, draw some points for your essay.

Step 2: Formation and sentence construction

Have a clear PTE essay template in your mind for the essay structure. It can be categorized as follows:

Paragraph 1 - paraphrasing of statement + brief introduction
Paragraph 2 - viewpoints according to the instruction
Paragraph 3 - additional viewpoints according to the instructions
Paragraph 4 - conclusion for the PTE Essay

Once the template is clear to you, start framing your sentences for each paragraph and give your viewpoints as required by the instructions in the question. You should add some examples in PTE Writing paragraph 2 and paragraph 3 to support your answer.

Step 3: Re-check your essay

Keep aside 1-2 minutes at the end to scan the essay that you just wrote and modify it in whichever way is required. This can help you to correct any spelling mistakes, typos, punctuation, or grammar errors that might be present in your answer.

What is the PTE essay template to follow?

A lot of times, students get confused about how to start the introduction of the PTE essay, even if they have great points in their minds for the upcoming paragraphs. Let's learn the most effective way to write the introduction paragraph, which will help you to build the first paragraph in a blink of an eye.

An ideal introduction paragraph consists of two things - a well-paraphrased question statement and a thesis statement. Keep this PTE essay template in mind whenever you start your essay.

Step 1: Paraphrase the question statement

Firstly, start the introduction paragraph by paraphrasing your question statement. Paraphrasing means to re-write the question stated in a different way. To achieve this, we can make use of the following methods:

Paraphrase the main keywords in the question statement. Try to think about synonyms of the main keywords and use them in the paraphrased statement. For example, if your question statement contains the word 'important', you can rephrase it using the synonyms - vital, integral, crucial, pivotal, indispensable, etc. Writing a template for PTE can help you practice this in a better way.
Change some of the parts of speech. You may change some of the prepositions, adjectives, adverbs, or conjunctions that are present in the PTE Writing question. Make sure that after changing them, the sentence is grammatically correct. For example, changing linking words such as and, because, for, of, etc according to the statement.
Change information in Active voice to passive voice. In this method, you have to change the word order of the sentences from active voice to passive voice. It is a great tip to boost your PTE Overall score. The sentence construction order for active voice is - subject - verb - object. A reference of active voice is: Some people believe that...... [some people - subject, believe - verb, that.... - the notion being described in the statement is the object]. In passive voice, the structure of the sentence is reversed i.e. object- verb-subject. The same sentence would be written as follows: It is believed by many that... [ It - refers to the object, believed - verb, by many - subject]
Turn simple sentences into complex sentences. You can use conjunctions or linkers to group two sentences and form a compound or complex sentence. This will also portray your range of grammar in your answer. The conjunctions/linkers that can be used are: and, but, because, although, moreover, however, albeit, since, as, etc.
Combine or divide thoughts to change the structure of the sentence. You can use this strategy to restructure the PTE Essay statement. This simply means to divide the ideas and write them in a different order as given in the question statement. For instance, you can change the sentence order of the question statement.

PTE Sample Essay:

Let's look at a sample question statement and its paraphrased answer:

Question statement:

“Successful sports stars and glamorous film stars are role models for youngsters. Use specific reasons and examples to support your opinion.”

Paraphrased statement:

It is believed by many that celebrities leave an ever-lasting impression on teenagers and act as role models for young people.

Step 2: Add a thesis statement:

A thesis statement gives the introduction to your ideas which you are going to discuss in the PTE Writing essay. It also addresses the instructions which are present in the question. To write a thesis statement, address the instructions and answer them in 1-2 sentences. The thesis statement gives the reader some clarity about the theme of the essay and the context as well.

Let's build the thesis statement for the given question, but don't forget to use a PTE essay template pdf for a thorough understanding:

Thesis statement according to the given instruction:

In my opinion, these prominent figures possess the ability to profoundly shape people's lives and provide the motivation needed to strive for their aspirations.

By combining the paraphrased and thesis statements, we can form the introduction paragraph.

Introduction paragraph for the given question statement:

It is believed by many that celebrities leave an ever-lasting impression on teenagers and act as role models for young people. In my opinion, these prominent figures possess the ability to profoundly shape people's lives and provide the motivation needed to strive for their aspirations.

Following a structured manner can make it easier to form the introduction paragraph and start your answer in the PTE Essay. Lastly, practice these steps for some sample questions of PTE essays to enhance your writing skills.

Mastering PTE Essays: Your Winning Formula for 89+ Scores

Your search for the ideal PTE Essay template ends now! While you may have encountered many PTE writing essay templates, Edulyte offers the best template for the PTE exam. Go ahead and take your PTE prep to the next level with our essay template for PTE. Each component of the PTE essay is explained in the template to empower you to write scoring essays quickly.

Introduction for the PTE Essay

Your essay should begin with an attention-grabbing introduction. Our template for writing essays in PTE is based on instructions from Edulyte’s mentors.

These include:

Start with a clear and concise introduction.
State the topic of your essay and provide some background information.
Include a thesis statement outlining your essay’s main point or argument.

Social media has become integral to our daily lives, revolutionising how we communicate, share information, and interact with the world. Social media has a profound and multi-pronged effect on contemporary society, examining its advantages and disadvantages, and its role in shaping our lives.

Body Paragraphs for the PTE Essay

Moving on to the main body of your essay, here is the section where you present your arguments clearly and concisely. Our essay template for the PTE exam gives you an accurate idea of how to approach this part of the essay.

Instructions:

Each body paragraph should focus on a single point or idea that supports your thesis statement.
Start each paragraph with a topic sentence that introduces the paragraph’s main point.
Provide evidence or examples to help your point. It can include personal experiences, facts, statistics, or quotes.
Explain how the evidence or examples relate to your argument.
Use transition words and phrases to ensure smooth transitions between paragraphs.

Firstly, social media has transformed the way we connect. Platforms like Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram enable us to stay in touch with friends and family, regardless of geographical distances. The convenience of instant messaging and video calls has bridged gaps and brought people closer together. It is substantiated by the act that there are around 4.8 billion social media users globally today.

Secondly, social media has amplified the dissemination of information. News and events spread rapidly through these platforms, providing real-time updates on global affairs. It has empowered citizens to stay informed, express their opinions, and discuss important issues. People base their opinions about current events and social issues based on what they read on social media.

Counter argument (if applicable) for the PTE Essay

This segment of your essay should have a counterargument. It must precisely place rational points against the ones you have mentioned in your earlier arguments. In our PTE essay template, you can see that social media’s ill effects are clearly mentioned.

If there is a counterargument to your thesis, acknowledge it in a separate paragraph.
Present the counterargument fairly and objectively.
Refute the counterargument by providing evidence or reasons why it is not valid.

However, social media’s influence is not without its drawbacks. One primary concern is the spread of misinformation and fake news, which can have significant consequences. The viral nature of social media can lead to the rapid dissemination of false information, causing panic and confusion. As per a study, more than 80% of social media users believe it affects their mental well-being.

Some argue that social media has led to increased social isolation and addiction. Excessive use of platforms like Instagram can lead to feelings of inadequacy and lower self-esteem as individuals compare themselves to idealised images portrayed online.

Conclusion for the PTE Essay

Wind up your essay on a note that showcases a balance of arguments and counterarguments. In this PTE easy essay template, you can read the conclusion about the influence of social media.

Summarise the main points of your essay.
Restate your thesis statement in different words.
Provide a concluding thought or insight that leaves a lasting impression on the reader.
Avoid introducing new information in the conclusion.

In conclusion, social media has profoundly impacted our lives, enhancing communication and information sharing. Nevertheless, we must remain vigilant against the negative consequences, such as misinformation and addiction. To harness the benefits of social media while mitigating its drawbacks, individuals must use these platforms responsibly and critically. Social media is a tool that can connect us, inform us, and empower us, but it is our responsibility to ensure it enhances our lives rather than detracts from them.

Vital Tips for Writing the PTE Essay

Along with the critical instructions mentioned above, follow these fail-proof strategies to write an impressive essay:

Use clear and concise language.
Vary your sentence structure to make your essay more engaging.
Check for grammar and spelling errors.
Avoid overly complex vocabulary if it doesn’t enhance the clarity of your essay.
Stay within the word limit specified for the essay task.
