Pearson has created the English test PTE Home for UK visas and citizenship applications.

Approved by the UK Government, PTE Home allows test takers to prove their English at A1, A2 or B1 levels. It’s a fully computer-based test, removing the stress of facing and being scored by an examiner. What’s more, PTE Home is the fastest English test for UK visas, with test takers typically receiving their final results in less than 48 hours.

Pearson also provides free preparation materials for tutors to use in class.
