- Eiken Junior
This is the English-language website of the Eiken Foundation of Japan. The site is designed to provide a basic overview of the EIKEN Test in Practical English proficiency for teachers, researchers, and test users in the international community. Zashono Academy is unique in all the world. It has 54,000 students and this allows for some VERY specialized clubs. There are clubs for just about everything you can think of. And then there's the Eiken club. No one seems to know just what it's about, but they do know that it's filled with some of the most bodacious babes ever to be brought together!and then there's Densuke.
Eiken Junior is a suite of tests and learning materials offered in three levels (BRONZE, SILVER, and GOLD) and made up of listening tasks designed to encourage young children in Japan to learn English.

Goals of Eiken Junior
Our objective is to support English education for children through test development.
We hope to foster children who:
- are familiar with and have an interest in the English language.
- enjoy actively taking part in English communication.
- are aware that English can be used as a tool for communication with people from all over the world.
- understand various lifestyles and cultures around the world, and strive to become internationally-minded individuals with a broad outlook on life.
Eiken Junior aims to promote these goals and support children who are learning English.
Characteristics of Eiken Junior
Listen and choose
The goal of Eiken Junior is to determine the examinee’s listening ability, which is said to be essential for children in the early stages of learning. In most sections, the examinees listen to English vocabulary/phrases, dialogs or sentences, and then choose the illustration (answer) that corresponds to what they have heard. SILVER and GOLD grades contain sections in which the answer choices are not illustrations but are written out as a bridge to further studies.
Scoring
Eiken Junior attaches importance to the examinee experiencing feelings of joy and accomplishment by taking the test and therefore becoming more motivated to learn. Because the test is not pass/fail but scored by percentage, the children’s motivation will not be hindered by any feeling of failure. Examinees may use this information to decide which grade to apply for next time.
Variety of test formats
Eiken Junior has three grades, which are divided according to level of difficulty. The vocabulary and expressions chosen for the test are based on the Eiken Junior syllabus, in which English words and phrases are classified into different grades. The topics and settings of the questions are based on situations that children are familiar with. Some test formats will require examinees to use their imagination and inference skills.
Colorful illustrations
All pages of Eiken Junior test booklets are printed in color. This not only projects a bright and fun image, but also makes it easier for the examinee to understand the situation (the people, background, etc.) in the illustrations.
Subjective test section: 'The Challenge Corner'
Children have a strong interest in self-expression. Eiken Junior has developed a subjective section called the Challenge Corner. This new format motivates children to actively take part in the test.
Level of difficulty in accordance with English activities in Japanese elementary schools (BRONZE)
The main objectives of introducing foreign language activities into elementary schools are to develop a positive attitude in children to communicate with others, to accustom children to sounds and basic expressions of a foreign language, and to provide children with a deeper understanding of a language and culture. Eiken Junior takes these objectives into consideration when developing the test, especially for the BRONZE level. This grade consists of very basic content and simple formats so that elementary school students who are new to English can easily take the test.
Objective score data compiled from nationwide test
Eiken Junior is taken by children who study English in different environments. The test is administrated nationwide, thus the score data compiled from these tests is highly objective. Each personal Report Card shows the child’s score relative to other examinees of the same age and who have been studying English for the same number of years. Report Cards also give an easy to understand explanation of the score and advice about studying English.

Eiken Junior FAQ
Q: What is the history of Eiken Junior?
Eiken Junior was developed in 1994 by the Eiken Foundation of Japan (formerly STEP, Inc.). The first test was administered in January 1994. Initially, the test was administered to registered groups only, but in 2001, the test was administered at public test sites due to the growing demand of individual English learners. On our 10th anniversary, which was in 2003, substantial modification was made to Eiken Junior with the objective to develop a “more fun, appropriate and easy-to-take test”. The names of the grades were changed from 3rd, 2nd and 1st grade to BRONZE, SILVER and GOLD. An increasing number of elementary schools are utilizing Eiken Junior as a subjective assessment program and to increase motivation for learning in connection with the introduction of foreign language activities in the elementary school curriculum beginning in 2002.
Q: Is Eiken Junior related to EIKEN?
Eiken Junior and EIKEN are different tests. For example, the introductory level in EIKEN is the Grade 5 test. It consists of basic junior high school level questions, corresponding to English curriculum provided in junior high schools. Listening comprehension formulates 50% of the score, and the other 50% tests grammar, reading comprehension and sentence formation. Reading skills are essential to answer the questions. The method of testing and its areas of testing differ, but they are similar in that they both measure English communication competence.
Q: Will taking Eiken Junior boost the examinee's English skills?
The aim of Eiken Junior is to motivate children to enjoy English. The tests have no pass/fail line. Instead, Eiken Junior encourages examinees to progress to the next grade (goal) by issuing English CERTIFICATES to every examinee, giving praise and advice, focusing on appropriate listening comprehension, using illustrations, etc., so that children can take the test enthusiastically without attaching a score to it. Eiken Junior will motivate English learners and will also serve as motivation for future English learning.

Q: Can children take the same grade of Eiken Junior twice?
Eiken Season 1 Episode 1 Uncensored
Eiken Junior certificates do not show whether the examinee has passed or failed but instead show the percentage of questions he or she answered correctly. For examinees who take the same grade more than once, this makes it easy to track their performance over time and see how much their listening skills have improved. This can provide learners with a source of encouragement and motivation.
