Aptis for Teachers Vocabulary Practice Test 3
Here’s another free Aptis for Teachers vocabulary test designed especially for teachers. It includes typical themes and scenarios that you may come across in your teaching life. Our tests closely follow official exam format, and we’ve set exam time-limits too.
Remember, the Aptis Core Test consists of the vocabulary and grammar components. You have to answer 50 questions in 25 minutes in total, equally divided between the two linguistic areas. So you have 25 questions to do in 12.5 minutes in the vocabulary component of the test. This means you can take up to 30 seconds per question. If you take too long doing the tests, they’ll automatically finish and you’ll have to start again.
There are four question-types: word pairs, word definitions, word usage and word combinations. Before each mini-test we’ll give you a clear description and an example of each question-type.
For a more detailed description go to Aptis for Teachers: Vocabulary Practice Test 1.
Remember to keep these points in mind while you’re doing the tests:
- Read all of the options carefully before choosing your answer. Some of them may be quite similar.
- Don’t spend too long on any of the questions. Remember, you can always come back and try it again later, both here and in the official exam.
- Always answer the question. Never leave it blank.
Aptis for Teachers: Vocabulary Test 3
Part 1: Word Pairs
You’ll see a target word in the following format: ‘sign up = ‘. You have to select the option that has the most similar meaning to that word; in this case, ‘enrol’.
Part 2: Word Definitions
You’re given a definition this time. You have to select a word to match to the definition. For example, ‘to practise for the school show is to …’ ‘rehearse’.
Part 3: Word Usage
Here you have to select a word to complete each sentence correctly. For example, ‘The college is offering [ presential / physical / face-to-face ] courses next term’. The correct answer here is ‘face-to-face‘.
Part 4: Word Combinations
You have to combine words that are often used together; this is called collocation. For example, we say ‘distance learning‘, ‘attend a lecture’ ‘poor grades’.

Thank you
Hi Dilfuza, Ah, this is good news and bad news … we’re really happy to hear our tests are helping you with your studies, but we’re sorry to hear you didn’t pass last week. Just remember that we all have off-days sometimes, and try to relax and do your best in your next test. We’re just at this moment recording a new Aptis for Teachers Writing Test, so we hope that will help! It should be live in a couple of hours or so. We wish you the very, very best of luck with your next try, Chris & John 😘👍🏻❤️
Hi guys.
Dilfuza GOOD LUCK.
My exam is also tomorrow😟
I am a bit nervous.
At first I thought it was easy one.
But then I found It was difficult enough.
Good luck as well Nadira – remember to let us know how it went! If you’ve watched our Aptis for Teachers videos, you’ll have lots of education vocabulary! For the writing, here is our advice (when we get time we’ll make this into a video)
Follow instructions and answer the questions. Read them carefully. e.g. If the question asks ‘Why?’ – then remember to give a reason!
Keep to the word count. If you fail to do this then you’ll lose marks.
Be as accurate as you can (try not to make mistakes)
Use a variety of grammar and sentence structures. Show the examiner what you know!
Use the proper punctuation, paragraphs and capitalize when necessary.
For informal emails use contractions, informal language and phrasal verbs and try to sound friendly. Avoid the use of SMS spellings.
For the formal email – try to sound ‘formal’. Use the proper conventions eg. Start with ‘Dear + name’ – finish with ‘Yours sincerely + your name’ and ‘Dear + without name just job title’ – finish with ‘Yours faithfully + your name’ Paragraphs, have an introduction (reason for writing) middle (body of letter) and conclusion/finish off letter.
All the best John and Chris 😀 👍 👍
Thank you so much.
Of course, I will
