Online PTE Coaching in Australia
Sydney PTE Academy teaches PTE Academic live on Zoom, so you can join from anywhere in Australia. You get the same teachers, the same small groups and the same materials as our Sydney students, without the commute. We have taught PTE since 2015 and are rated 4.9 on Google.
Message us on WhatsApp with your current scores, your target score and your test date, and a teacher will tell you which option fits. Prefer to choose a time yourself? Book a 1 on 1 session.
How our online PTE coaching works
- Live, never pre-recorded. Every class runs live on Zoom with a PTE teacher who hears your answers and corrects them as you go.
- Small groups. Group courses are capped at fewer than 10 students, so you get real speaking time and individual feedback.
- Recorded for review. Sessions are recorded so you can rewatch the strategies before your exam.
- Everything included. Slides, cheat sheets and practice material are included, with nothing extra to buy.
- Free practice between classes. Our PTE Practice Hub gives you free practice on all 22 PTE task types with instant scoring.
Which online PTE course fits you
| Option | Format | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| PTE Express Course | 2 week intensive in a small group of fewer than 10 students | You have solid English and missed your target by roughly 5 to 10 points |
| PTE Advanced Course | 4 weeks: the full Express Course plus 4 private 1 on 1 sessions | You are new to PTE, or you need 15 points or more |
| Supreme 1 on 1 Sessions | Private hourly coaching in packages of 3, 5 or 7 sessions | One section will not move, your test date is close, or you have plateaued after another course |

Online PTE classes wherever you live in Australia
Because every class is on Zoom, where you live makes no difference to the coaching. Students in Brisbane, Melbourne, Perth, Adelaide, Canberra, Hobart, Darwin, the Gold Coast and regional areas join the same classes as students in Sydney, including Parramatta and Western Sydney.
Class times are set in Sydney time. This is how Sydney time compares with your city:
| Your city | April to October | October to April |
|---|---|---|
| Melbourne, Canberra, Hobart | Same as Sydney | Same as Sydney |
| Brisbane, Gold Coast | Same as Sydney | 1 hour behind Sydney |
| Adelaide | 30 minutes behind Sydney | 30 minutes behind Sydney |
| Darwin | 30 minutes behind Sydney | 1 hour 30 minutes behind Sydney |
| Perth | 2 hours behind Sydney | 3 hours behind Sydney |
Tell us your city when you message us and we will confirm every class time in your local time. 1 on 1 sessions are booked around your availability, including evenings and weekends.
Is online PTE coaching as effective as face to face?
For PTE, online coaching works well because the exam itself is taken on a computer with a headset and microphone. Practising your speaking into a microphone and typing your answers on a screen is closer to test day than a classroom whiteboard.
What decides your result is not the location. It is how much speaking time you get and whether a teacher actually hears and corrects your answers. That is why our groups stay under 10 students. Our guide on how to choose a PTE course or tutor explains the arithmetic.
What you need for online PTE classes
- A computer or laptop. A phone is fine for watching, but you will want a keyboard for the writing tasks.
- A stable internet connection.
- A headset with a microphone, ideally the same type you will use on test day.
- A quiet room for speaking practice.
