LanguageCert Academic Speaking Part 3: Read Aloud and Opinion Task Guide

Wed, 28 Jan 2026 00:00:00 +0000

LanguageCert Academic Speaking Part 3 tests two skills in one task: reading aloud and expressing an opinion. You read a short academic passage while the examiner listens, then answer a follow-up question about the topic. Unlike PTE’s AI-scored Read Aloud, a human examiner evaluates your performance in real time.

This section sits in the middle of the 14-minute speaking test, after the personal questions and role play. By Part 3, you should be warmed up and comfortable with the examiner. The task combines the structured nature of PTE’s read aloud with the human interaction of IELTS, making it more forgiving for test takers who struggle with AI scoring.
