The TOEFL Junior Tests
The TOEFL Junior® tests, intended for students ages 11+, provide real insight into students' English communication skills to help educators make the best decisions and guide them on a path to success.
There are two TOEFL Junior® tests:
TOEFL Junior® Standard test — a paper- or digitally delivered test that measures Reading Comprehension, Listening Comprehension, and Language Form and Meaning.
TOEFL Junior® Speaking test — a digitally delivered test that measures students' ability to communicate orally in English in an academic classroom.
Each test measures different English-language skills. Both tests provide reliable administration and scoring, and scores are mapped to CEFR levels.

For a complete look at a student's English-language ability, the TOEFL Junior Speaking test, which is digitally administered, measures the skills needed to communicate successfully in English. It consists of questions on the following:
- Read Aloud
- Picture Narration
- Non-academic Listen-Speak

During the Test
Each section of the test has a time limit. The test administrator will tell you when to start and stop each section. During each time period, you may read or work only on the section of the test you are told to work on. If you finish one section early, you may not go on to the next section before you are told to do so, and you may not go back to a section you have already worked on. Failure to follow this rule will be considered cheating, and your scores will be canceled.
