Acquiring collocations is a key step in improving overall English proficiency.  \nAbout the Academic Collocation List  \nCreated by Pearson, the Academic Collocation List contains the most frequent and pedagogically relevant lexical collocations in written academic English, helping learners recognize and use words that naturally co-occur rather than studying words in isolation.  \nA Number of collocations: 2,469  \nA Source: Pearson International Corpus of Academic English (25 mill words)  \nA Purpose: to support PTE preparation  \nBenefits and use  \nIn highlighting the most important cross-disciplinary collocations, the Academic Collocation List can help learners increase their collocational competence and thus their proficiency in academic English.  \nThe Academic Collocation List can also support PTE teachers in their lesson planning and serve as a tool for improving academic language development in their learners.  \nTHE ACADEMIC COLLOCATION LIST – Classroom Resource for PTE Preparation | 2  \nHow to use the Academic Collocation List  \nThe Academic Collocation List can be used in the classroom to help learners notice, record , and use collocations effectively across PTE questions:  \nUnderstand collocations  \nA Introduce learners to common word combinations (e.g., verb + noun, adjective + noun, and noun + noun) to improve natural language use.  \nExample: Provide examples of collocations from the Academic Collocation List.  \n\n| verb + noun | adjective + noun | noun + noun |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| have access (to) | hierarchical structure | information flow |\n| have consequences |  | information gathering |\n| have limitations |  | information processing |\n\nRecord and learn  \nA Encourage learners to notice collocations in sample prompts (texts or audio), record them in notebooks or digital logs, and review them regularly.  \nExample: Learners notice the collocation prime example. They then go to the Academic Collocation List to find other collocations with prime, such as prime time.  \nExtend vocabulary  \nA Use collocations as a springboard to related words and phrases, broadening learners’ academic vocabulary.  \nExample: Starting with a collocation from the Academic Collocation List, such as conduct research, learners can explore related academic expressions like carryout a study, investigate, or analyze data.  \nTHE ACADEMIC COLLOCATION LIST – Classroom Resource for PTE Preparation | 3  \nUse in PTE Speaking & Writing questions  \nA Encourage learners to actively include collocations in responses to PTE Speaking & Writing questions, improving range and precision.  \nExample: For a Describe Image question showing a rising bar chart of population growth:  \n1. The teacher selects collocations from the Academic Collocation List, for example, significant growth and reach (a) peak.  \n2. Learners are asked to incorporate these collocations into their descriptions of the image.  \nSample learner response: “The chart shows that the population has experienced significant growth over the last decade, reaching apeak in 2020 .”  \nUse in PTE Reading & Listening questions  \nA Encourage learners to recognize and apply collocations accurately to improve comprehension and maximize their scores.  \nExample: For Fill in the Blanks (Dropdown) or Fill in the Blanks (Drag and Drop) question, learners should use the Academic Collocation List to identify the most appropriate collocation for each gap. They can also use the Academic Collocation List to find alternative words that naturally collocate with the missing word or one of the answer options, ensuring that all choices sound authentic and contextually appropriate.  \nReinforce through practice  \nA Incorporate collocations into classroom activities such as gap-fills, matching exercises, and quizzes.  \nExample","cbCaipOA6LVBi1AE","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaipOA6LVBi1AE","pdf",1290998,"English","# Why collocations matter\n# About the Academic Collocation List\n# Benefits and use\n# How to use the Academic Collocation List\n## Understand collocations\n## Record and learn\n## Extend vocabulary\n# Use in PTE Speaking & Writing questions\n# Use in PTE Reading & Listening questions\n# Reinforce through practice\n# The Academic Collocation List","[{\"question\":\"What is the Academic Collocation List used for in PTE preparation?\",\"answer\":\"It supports PTE preparation by helping learners recognize and use high-value cross-disciplinary collocations in academic English, improving competence and overall proficiency.\"},{\"question\":\"How can teachers help students learn collocations effectively in class?\",\"answer\":\"Teachers can have learners notice collocations in prompts, record them in notebooks or digital logs, review them regularly, and use collocations to expand related vocabulary.\"},{\"question\":\"How should learners apply collocations in PTE Speaking \\u0026 Writing questions?\",\"answer\":\"Learners should actively include selected collocations to increase range and precision in responses, using examples from the Academic Collocation List for question descriptions.\"},{\"question\":\"How can the Academic Collocation List improve performance in PTE Reading \\u0026 Listening questions?\",\"answer\":\"Learners can recognize and apply collocations accurately to strengthen comprehension, and use the list to choose the most appropriate collocation for gaps in dropdown or drag-and-drop tasks.\"}]","The Academic Collocation List - Classroom Resource for PTE Preparation - Version 2 - 2025 | PDF",1790763801,101]
