    Hi Aron, thank you so much for the tips!!
    It got the invalid certificate for the 1st time I gave the test, stating I was reading written stuff for the speaking task. I followed the tips from the above video.
    I gave the test the next time and scored 120.
    Adding to this, I would say the room where anyone takes the test, let the whole room be visible, so that when the Duolingo committee validates the video they'll have a clarity that nobody is in the room helping you.
    Thanks for all the videos and the website Aron, waiting for your writing tips☺️

      Amazing! I'm glad that you were able to get your results certified on the second attempt and that you got such a high score! Your tip about making the whole room visible is a great one.

    I took my test 5 days back, i got an invalid test results 😢 stating i was reading written stuffs while speaking 😔 But I never did that. I just gazed at my laptop camera.

      I'm sorry to hear that! Unfortunately, this is a very common problem with the DET. Best of luck tomorrow!

    Hi sir, thank you very much for your incredible tips. I have a question I live in the basement I am planning to take the DET test, so is that going to be a problem because other people live upstairs and I can hear there steps? Thank you very greatly for your advice.

      Hello! To be honest, that isn't ideal :/ You may not have any problems, but it would definitely be better if you could take the test in a quieter place. I would hate for you to not get your results certified because the proctors heard the footsteps.

      Hello -- I wouldn't recommend starting that way. There are stronger way to begin your answer, especially because you have such limited time on the DET.

    In kenya the problem is mode of payment. Most of us don't have the credit cards.

      Hello! We rely upon Stripe for payment processing and Stripe doesn't support every payment method in every country. Even though Stripe is the best payment processor, certain international payment methods can be too complex even for Stripe to support.
