PTE Describe Image: tips and structure

You get 25 seconds to study the image and 40 seconds to speak. A clear structure is what makes it work.

A simple 4-part structure

  • Introduce: “This image shows…”
  • Main feature: the biggest, highest or most important point
  • Two or three supporting details, with numbers if there are any
  • Conclusion: “Overall, …”

Common mistakes

  • Long silences. Keep speaking smoothly
  • Listing every detail without a main point
  • Rushing, which hurts pronunciation
