Young Learners English Tests (YLE) is a suite of English language examinations provided by Cambridge English Language Assessment and designed for children in primary and lower-secondary school (age 5 to 12).
YLE certificates are recognized as one of the most authoritative international testing systems for young learners of the English language. They are widely used for school applications and are therefore highly valued in preparation for school interviews.
The YLE certificates consist of 3 levels:
Each level is assessed throughout the four language competences: reading, writing, listening and speaking. There is no pass or fail; instead, students are given “shields” for their progress and performance.
In addition, our English teachers will provide individual feedback to every student throughout the whole course.
Both individual and small group classes are available.

Immerse uses the University of Cambridge ESOL examinations approved text books, as these will reflect any minor adjustments to the exam. Our teacher has a masters degree in teaching, over ten years experience and has guided many students to successful results in Cambridge YLE. Children will be rewarded an internationally recoganized certificate issued by the Uniersity of Cambridge ESOL Examinations after completing an external exam.
The tests are written around familiar topics, such as family, home, hobbies and school. There is a listening, speaking, reading and writing assessment.
Through interactive activities, spelling competitions and educational games, we will keep your child interested and excited. By using official material and past papers, they will be prepared for every aspect of the exam.
