EIKEN (Jitsuyo Eigo Gino Kentei) is the most popular England Language proficiency test in Japan. This examination is backed by the Japanese government but is recognised in over 400 English-speaking academic institutions across the world most prominently in North America and Australia. It is most commonly used by Japanese nationals who wish to certify their English language abilities in order to study abroad. Our STEP EIKEN Tutors can help you cover all aspects of the EIKEN exam supporting your English Language Skills.

 

STEP EIKEN Exam Format

 

There are 7 levels within the EIKEN offered as follows (with Grade 5 being the lowest level of language ability)

Grade 1

Grade Pre-1

Grade 2

Grade Pre-2

Grade 3

Grade 4

Grade 5.

 

For each grade there are two stages to the assessment. Firstly, all candidates must complete a written paper which focuses on assessing reading, listening and writing proficiency. The second stage is then designed to test candidates speaking skills, this usually includes a face-to-face interview with an examiner although more recently an online version of this section of the assessment has been introduced. It is worth noting that for the two beginner Grades (Grade 4 and 5) there is no speaking element of the assessment however for the other Grades it is essential that both stages of the qualification are successfully completed.
