PTE Core Speaking · Describe Image

Describe Image

Describe a chart or graph in your own words. Record your answer, play it back, and compare with the model — it isn’t auto-scored, because real speaking needs a human ear.

You get 25 seconds to study the image, then describe it for about 40 seconds. Cover the key features — don’t read every number.

Private: your recording stays in this browser and is never uploaded. We don't score speaking — real pronunciation and fluency need a human (or the test's own machine), so use the sample to self-assess.
