PTE Young Learner Test
PTE Young Learners (formerly known as LTEfC) are international English language exams for young children (aged from 7 to 12) who are learning English as a foreign language (EFL). They test the four skills: reading, writing, listening and speaking.
PTE Young Learners exams are based around the amusing adventures of the Brown family. The exams are theme based and designed to be fun and motivating. At the lower levels they aim to test how well children can use language structures and at the higher levels how well they can use language to complete communicative tasks. For this reason, the tests use real-life scenarios rather than grammatical exercises.
There are four PTE Young Learners levels
| Level | PTE Young Learners | Exam time |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Firstwords | 1h |
| 2 | Springboard | 1h |
| 3 | Quickmarch | 1h |
| 4 | Breakthrough | 1h15 |

Famous quotes containing the words young, learner and/or test:
“Much is made of the accelerating brutality of young people’s crimes, but rarely does our concern for dangerous children translate into concern for children in danger. We fail to make the connection between the use of force on children themselves, and violent antisocial behavior, or the connection between watching father batter mother and the child deducing a link between violence and masculinity.”
—Letty Cottin Pogrebin (20th century)
“Bad times have a scientific value. These are occasions a good learner would not miss.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“Conventional manners are a kind of literacy test for the alien who comes among us.”
—Katharine Fullerton Gerould (1879–1944)
