How to prepare for NAATI CCL HINDI

For those looking to get an Australian Permanent Residency, the NAATI CCL test is a huge blessing, as successfully completing this test can give you 5 extra PR points. 

Although the test is easier than the PTE or the IELTS and takes only around 20 minutes to complete, it still proves to be quite difficult for those who are taking it. 

This is a relatively recent test to be introduced for the purpose of PR, and hence is still not completely understood by many test-takers. 

NAATI CCL is available in a number of languages, including Hindi, Telugu, Sinhalese, Spanish, Gujarati, Malayalam, Punjabi etc. 

✅ FIRST STEP

THE FIRST STEP in preparing for the NAATI CCL Hindi is to understand the structure of the test.

✅ NAATI is different from PTE and IELTS because it is completely delivered online, which means you do not have to be physically present in Australia to do the test. 

✅ The test consists of two recordings. Each recording has a dialogue between a native English speaker and a native Hindi speaker.

✅ Each dialogue recording has roughly 300 words, half in English and half in Hindi. 

✅ The topics covered in these dialogues can range from Business, Consumer Affairs, Employment, Health, Immigration/Settlement, Community, Education, Housing, Insurance, Financial, Legal and Social Services. 

✅ SECOND STEP

THE SECOND STEP is to know how you are going to be marked for this test.

You will be marked on your:  

✅ Language Quality – competency in both English and Hindi

✅ Language Register – the level of formality with which a candidate transfers the meaning

✅ Marks will be deducted for any errors that you make, so only answer when you are sure. 

✅ Each dialogue is worth 45 marks. In order to pass the test, the candidate needs 29 out of 45 in each dialogue.  

✅ THIRD STEP

THE THIRD STEP is to practise all the material that is available to you and get adequate feedback. 

If you follow all the tips below, you can get the score you want. 

However, it isn’t always possible to follow each step accurately on your own, that is why A One Australia has all the facilities available for NAATI Hindi Coaching to create a study plan tailored for you that you can follow easily. 

✅ Timetable scheduling – Creating an accurate timetable for your weeks of study prior to the exam is very important. 

Using a timetable, you can make sure you learn every section of the test well and get all the practise you require. This systematic approach to studying will give you an advantage over others.

✅ Memory skills and note-taking – In NAATI CCL, you are not just expected to provide the meaning of the dialogue, but you also need a high degree of accuracy. 

Working on your memory retention will tremendously work in your favour. However, even a sharp memory can be overloaded, and note-taking becomes of utmost importance in those situations. 

There will be a number of situations you will hear about, and cultivating the habit of writing down essential points will help you give a more accurate answer. 

✅ Practice everyday vocabulary – The dialogues you will get are based on certain topics but still use a lot of common and day to day words and phrases. 

There are words used in dialogues of the different topics that are frequently used in these tests. 

When doing practise tests and looking at previous tests, make a list of repeating vocabulary and keep revising those words to the best of your ability. 

✅ Focus more on your weaker language – If you consider English to be your weaker language, then completely immerse yourself in practising that language, especially in the context of Australia. 

As is mentioned above, the test focuses on many different fields of life, try reading as much as you can about social conversations regarding those topics. 

✅ Ask for repetition – Students are allowed one repetition per dialogue, but often in the heat of the moment and with exam pressure, they forget to claim that. 

Listen carefully to the dialogue, make your notes and ask for repetition when you are ready. This can assure the highest level of accuracy in your answer. 

✅ Mock tests – Doing mock tests is the most effective way to assure that you have a good understanding of the NAATI Hindi test. 

These tests are a good way to make sure that any dialogue you hear in the actual test does not intimidate you. Our website and the NAATI Ninja app offer a range of mock tests that you can download and practise. 

If you want a more structured mock test time table, then A One Australia has a mock test every Saturday, which means you can take four mock tests in a month. 

Maintaining this schedule tracks your progress and gives you enough time to practise in between each test.

✅ Coaching and Feedback – If you want to take your practising one step forward and have an aim to get a very high score, then NAATI Hindi coaching classes are the best way to go about that. 

Learning from teachers who are experts in this field will elevate your skills and assure that you get the score that you dream of. 

A One Australia Group provides NAATI Hindi coaching, which includes daily classes, including weekends, practise sessions with teachers, and vocabulary and note-taking classes as well. 

After a few sessions with us, you will become more confident in your abilities. We offer an in-depth study of every single module of the test and train you with various techniques that have proven to work very well for other students before. 

You can expect valuable and insightful feedback on your work, which can help you identify your weaker areas that need to be worked on. With some extra coaching with us, it becomes easy to get the 5 extra points you need for your PR.

5 COMMON IELTS MISTAKES AND THEIR SOLUTIONS

5 COMMON IELTS MISTAKES AND THEIR SOLUTIONS

When preparing for the IELTS exam, students often find themselves stuck at a few questions and are unable to figure out how to deal with the challenge. 

This leads to some very common mistakes occurring in their actual test. Most of the mistakes made in IELTS have simple remedies, it’s just that the students are simply not aware of them. 

In this blog, there are a few such mistakes that can be very costly to the student but have easy fixes.

✅ Not talking enough for the speaking test

The speaking section is one of the more difficult sections when it comes to the IELTS. It is both difficult for someone who is not familiar with conversational English and is also a very nerve-wracking task. 

It requires some degree of confidence and the ability to speak in front of an examiner without messing up. A common mistake that leads to points deduction is when students tend to stop speaking after a certain time. 

Even if you feel stuck because the topic is unfamiliar to you or if you think you simply do not have enough information to talk about that topic, do not become silent. 

Use phrases like “I apologize for not having much knowledge about this topic; however, I do believe that….”. Muster up any kind of information slightly related to that topic so you are able to speak enough. 

The IELTS is not a knowledge test, rather an English language test. As long as you can speak something relevant for long enough, you should be fine.

✅ Studying hard without feedback or objective scoring

This is a very common error made by students, not just in IELTS but in other exams as well. However, it becomes much more important when giving the IELTS. 

Students will study for weeks prior to the exam, but by simply studying according to your own standards, you might not be able to accomplish what you desire. 

IELTS is not a knowledge test, which means there is nothing for you to memorize or concepts for you to understand. It’s all about English. 

The only way to know if what you are doing is right or wrong is to get some external and objective feedback. 

If you have people around you who have general English knowledge, they can help you out with that. 

Usually, people tend to practise and study their testing skills a lot, rather than trying to improve their English itself. 

Tips and tricks work to some extent, but to really do well in the IELTS, it is important to actually improve your language itself, which comes through constant feedback.

✅ Writing Task 1

This task is the simpler one out of the two writing tasks, and for that reason, people tend to take it for granted. It is an easy task, but many people go astray simply because they forgot important data that is mentioned in the question. 

Since the question itself is based on a graph, chart or table, it is essential to highlight each aspect of the same in your answer, and missing out on that could be the reason you miss out on some important points. 

It is important to prioritize what you will write about, but missing out on important data will lead to point deduction. Another reason for lower points could be that you are missing out on an ‘overview’. 

A clear overview at the beginning of the answer helps ease the reader into your entire response, which will improve your score.

✅ Writing Task 2

Everyone would agree that the second writing task in the IELTS is quite challenging. 

Students tend to lose most of their points in this task, and that is why it’s common to see high scores in other parts of the test, but the writing section tends to be lower. 

There are many aspects in this task that can reduce marks, so let’s start with simple formatting errors. The format of your response needs to be in an essay format. 

This means you need an introduction, a few body paragraphs and a conclusion. Anything other than this format is not recommended. 

Avoid using headings and bullet points here. Remember to use paragraphs well. Each paragraph should be for a separate idea. 

There should be an introduction paragraph, body paragraphs; one for every idea you have, and a conclusion paragraph. Do not have any one-sentence paragraphs, make sure to at least have 2 sentences each.

✅ Grammar and vocabulary

As it is for any language, the grammar of your sentences and the words you use to convey your response play a big role in the accuracy of your response. 

Even as a native speaker, you can make grammatical errors or forget the most appropriate word in a situation.

But the IELTS does not necessarily chastise you for every single small error you make, but if more than 50% of your sentences have grammatical errors, then getting a band higher than 6 will be impossible. 

Most of these errors can be easily learnt and rectified, you just need to be aware of them.

✅ Starting with the use of contradictions

In conversation English and in informal use of the language, we tend to shorten words. However, in IELTS writing you cannot do that. 

So instead, learn to use: cannot instead of can’t, do not instead of don’t, I will instead of I’ll, and it is instead of it’s. 

This can be difficult to do as it is a habit for most people, but with practice and by paying close attention, it is possible.

✅ Remember to combine sentences

Remember to combine sentences by using the semicolon (;) or using conjunctions (words like and/but). Do not use a comma to combine two sentences. 

It might look like it makes sense, but it’s generally wrong. There are sentences where a comma might be required in addition to “and”, but just the comma alone does not combine two sentences.
