TOEFL or PTE — which one?
Both tests measure academic English across reading, writing, listening and speaking, and both are taken on a computer. The right choice depends on where you are applying.
- TOEFL iBT is widely preferred by US universities and accepted in more than 160 countries. ETS introduced an updated TOEFL iBT format in 2026; our material follows the current version.
- PTE Academic is scored on a 10–90 scale by automated scoring, and results usually arrive within two days. It is widely accepted in Australia, New Zealand, the UK and Canada, including for many visa categories.
In your first session we compare your university and visa requirements and recommend one test, so you do not prepare for two.
How we teach
Every Wizius programme starts with a diagnostic test. Your faculty reads the result with you, sets a realistic target score, and builds a week-by-week plan around your college deadlines and your working hours. Classes are 1-to-1 or in very small groups, so the lesson moves at your speed rather than the batch average.
Between classes you practise on exam-style questions, sit full-length timed mocks, and review every mistake with your mentor. We track accuracy and timing by topic so the plan keeps shifting towards the areas that still cost you marks.
Exam format, section by section
TOEFL iBT
Tests reading, listening, speaking and writing in an academic context. Speaking responses are recorded into a microphone and writing is typed.
We train: note-taking for integrated tasks, templates for speaking responses, and typing speed for the writing tasks.
PTE Academic
Three parts: Speaking & Writing, Reading, and Listening. Many question types test two skills at once, such as Read Aloud or Summarise Spoken Text.
We train: oral fluency and pronunciation for the automated scorer, and the high-weight tasks that move your overall score the most.

Students who trusted Wizius
“When I signed up for Wizius, I was skeptical of their ‘Guaranteed Admit or 100% Refund’ claim. But they backed it up — in writing, on stamp paper. My consultant rebuilt my entire story from scratch, turning a generic profile into a winning ISB admit. I didn’t just get in — I got a merit scholarship. Worth every rupee.”
“The Wizius team didn’t just help me write essays — they helped me discover who I am. Every session felt like building my personal brand. Their advice on activity positioning, recommendation letters, and storytelling made all the difference. I’m now at UCLA with a partial scholarship.”
“I learned more in just 10 days with Wizius than I did in 6 months with another test prep. Thanks to Wizius I had a 30 point increase on my GRE and a full ride scholarship to a top MS program. They clearly explain the concepts, tailor instruction to each student, and push everyone to do better.”
