Wake Up And Chase Your Dream Even If You Have To Move Abroad

At a certain point in life, we dream of moving abroad in search of better career opportunities, gain experiences, or to improve quality of life. However, it is not an overnight process; we have to face many challenges in the course of its preparation, from the very beginning, to which we find ourselves stuck and the dream remains unfulfilled. Living with a dream that cannot be fulfilled mixed with regrets is one of the most depressing feelings in the world. On several occasions, it all happens because of a foreign language.


English is a cool language. It is important no doubt but it is foreign to many of us, if not most. It need not be replaced with mother tongue or native languages, but it is indispensable especially for those who aspire to go abroad for work or study.

A great mathematician or a stalwart of a technical field —those who are called nerds— can eventually fail, if he is unable to express his works in the language people can understand. To reach out to the masses globally, English is the language people rely on. That doesn't mean English should be learnt after attaining the genius. English is required for studies too. Today great works are published in English — first and unadulterated. Some even do not make their way towards translated versions and hence get lost in the crowd. There have been several bestselling English books and novels which were published in some other language.

Even those who just love visiting places, the wanderers, English is compulsory. In most of the places in the world, by knowing English, one can manage to carry out day-to-day activities easily. Having a good grasp of English, a person can achieve success over a very short period of time.

Spoken English, in particular, for those it is second or third language is really tough. But that must not mark a full stop on their dream of moving abroad for work/study/immigration. English is sometimes treated as an elite or intellectual language, that's where debacle happens — when people afraid of mistakes. Any sort of learning begins with making mistakes. From here on, one can gain confidence in his/her broken English. Spoken English becomes polished only through practice.

Pearson’s PTE Academic, an automated test with negligible chances of human bias or error, is a good way to measure your English proficiency — oral or written. You know that talking to a computer in a foreign language is less “shameful” than doing the same with humans. With the backing of Pearson which has grown as one of the best brands in higher studies globally, it is, no doubt, a revolutionary approach towards increasing English proficiency. It can make your journey to abroad a little easier by breaking the barrier of English language. The best part is that it is accepted by some of the world’s most prestigious universities such as Stanford University, Harvard University, and Imperial College London along with thousands of institutes and organizations worldwide.

Benefits of scoring on PTE Academic
  • PTE Academic is scored against the Global Scale of English, that aligns with a variety of popular tests and scales around the world. The range for the score being 10-90 points.
  • Good scores in PTE Academic will help you to apply to the top global universities. 
  • The score is based on performance on all items in the test. The overall score reflects your overall English language ability.
  • Scores for communicative skills (listening, reading, speaking and writing) are based on all test items that assess these skills, either as a single skill or together with other skills.
  • Scores for enabling skills (grammar, oral fluency, pronunciation, spelling, vocabulary and written discourse) are based on all test items assessing one or more of these skills.
  • The display of the scores in a graph allows you to quickly see your strengths and weaknesses, and how each skill relates to your overall performance.
PTE Academic is an international level test to diagnose and improve English proficiency. The benefit here is that it is not alien to the people living on other continents — another reason that makes PTE Academic tests highly valuable.

Availability of Preparation Courses

The Preparation courses of PTE Academics is available all over the world, both in the face-to-face mode as well as online mode. In India, it is available at every major tier 1 and tier 2 city and the momentum is gaining in tier 3 cities too. You can check the list of cities here.

I know many people having a great potential lose exciting opportunities because they fail to express themselves properly. They just don’t want to grab those opportunities because they have low proficiency in English. Some of them get enrolled in one of the thousands of coaching institutes to learn English. It helps them succeed in the national level exams, but make only a small difference in tests such as IELTS or TOEFL. While planning career abroad, English may not be the only thing one should strive to improve but it is certainly one of those highly important things. There are many testimonials and review of PTE Academic, of those who have actually benefitted from this programme. As far as my recommendation goes, it is Definitely PTE.

The Indian Society And The Struggle Of Our Sports Fraternity

India, the world’s second-most populous nation, fails to show its dominance in sports. In fact, India's performance remains terrible except in few games. So, what's holding India back when it comes to competing in world sporting events like the Olympics? First, it's the conservative Indian mindset of the Indian society. You might be aware of the saying in India “ Padhoge likhoge banoge Nawab, kheloge kudoge banoge kharab ” which translates to “You can be a king if you study, can be spoilt if you play games.” Social life of a person who took the plunge of making a career in sports in India can be challenging and demotivating. An Indian parents or teachers, being part of the society, don't consider sports as a career. They have the biggest influence in a child's future ambitions. They may scold the child that “playing a sport will get you nowhere in life, but to make a life you need to be good in academics”. In other words, young Indians are discouraged from playing s...

Forgiveness - Your Way Towards Peace

Forgiveness is a divine power, something that ordinary humans are not entitled to have. And, those who have this quality are more than 'a human'. One, who is free from materialistic desire and, most importantly, the ego, is blessed with such divine power. Whether it is of physical or mental strength, weak cannot forgive others. Forgiveness is always an attribute of strong people. It is a trait of a mature person having deep inner control over his mind. This strength cannot be bought, it has to be earned. But, how would you earn that? I think spirituality may be the answer. There are multiple benefits of forgiveness. It directly influences our thinking process. It sets you free from the negativity building around and boosts positive personality. It saves energy which can be redirected to do productive things. It is also the key to longevity and good health. But, how will you forgive someone who is not even sorry for their action? How will you respond to evil with kindn...

Why India Couldn't Compete The Developed World At Olympics?

India has, over the years, struggled to find medal-winning athletes for the Olympic Games. Let's take a look at the past performances of our players and team.  As an independent country, India won the first gold medal in 1948 in field hockey defeating Great Britain in the final. In the subsequent years, the expectation of medal was from our hockey team alone. After winning gold in 1980, the hockey team went downhill. Several times after 1980, Indian contingents have to come back empty-handed with a few exceptions in between. We have been helplessly standing close to the bottom in the league of third world countries.  India saw a watershed performance at the 2008 Beijing Olympics, where Abhinav Bindra stunned everyone and became the first Indian to bag an individual Olympic gold along with wrestler Sushil Kumar and boxer Vijender Singh winning bronze medal. Only four years later, a large 83-member contingent from India took part in the London Olympics, while setting a new bench...

Nuclear Friction - Are We Moving Towards Nuclear Doomsday?

It was a moment of joy for the North Koreans when they heard the news that North Korea has successfully tested H-bomb on January 6th and thus “guaranteed the eternal future of the nation”. But it was also a shocking and despairing moment for others. Followed by the claim, came the condemnation from most other countries of the world including US, Japan, South Korea, and even China (supposed friend of N. Korea). But it was not unexpected that the North Koreans will do a further nuke test after the three previous ones in 2006, 2009 and 2013. But nobody on this earth, or even in space, thought that they would be able to do an H-bomb test. It was a second nuclear test only in four years during the rule of Kim Jong Un, the young head of the mafia family that controls North Korea is a sobering reminder of the progress that three generations of Kims have made in expanding their nuclear capability—despite outside efforts to curb it. Few think that North Korea has yet managed t...

My Tribute To The Missile Man Of India

Avul Pakir Jainulabdeen Abdul Kalam was his name, like his 'big name' he leaves behind a very big legacy which cannot be forgotten. He was an example for the underprivileged children that just by will-Power and determination you can reach the top post. The thing matter is "your dream" and how much you work to achieve your dream. If you have a legitimate dream and at night you are not enjoying a sound sleep because you want to achieve that dream as soon as possible, then nothing can stop you from achieving your dream. In his words: "Dream is not that you see in the sleep, but it is something that does not allow you to sleep."  There was nothing negative about him. Everything he said or done had a positive impact to such extent that he was elected as 11th President of India unusually by the BJP and Congress together. The awards he got from Government of India includes —  Padma Bhushan in 1981, Padma Vibhushan in 1990, Bharat Ratna in 1997 and Veer Sa...

The Magical Castle - Sank Of SATAN-3O1

According to the weather forecast experts, it was an ideal weather for commencing a journey. Therefore, the ship SATAN-3O1 commenced its journey to Guyana. It was containing a large number of gold coins which was to be transported via sea route. During the start of this journey, everything was normal. However, somewhere in the mid sea, the weather became extreme. Suddenly, there were high tides, an unstopping rain and a violent storm. The captain and his co-workers fought the storm bravely but couldn't control the ship, and at last, the ship along with all the gold coins sank as the result of extreme weather.

The ugly Octo has now beco...

MY OPEN LETTER TO RAHUL GANDHI

Dear Mr Rahul Gandhi, First, welcome back from your two months of secret absence. God knows where you have gone to?  Unlike other politicians, your life is full of thrills. Perhaps you have gone for Tapasya and returned with some powers gained by it as told in Hindu mythology. You were unable to lead the 150 years old party but now it seems you can. Hopefully, you will use your powers for the mankind with skill and don't make it poison as your mom told. You speak well especially Hindi language which when your mom speaks appears that she is forced to make speech in Hindi. You can communicate with people better than her. Now you also learnt how to make jibes, it's a good sign of your becoming a contemporary politician because your opponent is the master in these things in front of whom you are still a beginner. Sir, please understand politics is not a part-time profession. You are a dynast so we know you but if you were a normal part-time politician, People and ...
