About this test
About the English Pronunciation Test for Kids (A1 Beginner)
Children learn pronunciation fastest by listening and copying. This test uses short A1 sentences with simple words, so young learners can focus on clear sounds instead of difficult vocabulary. The model voice reads every sentence, and the green, amber and red colours make progress easy to see and fun to improve. It works well with a parent or teacher sitting alongside.
Why practise this at A1 level
At A1 the goal is simple: say common words clearly enough that a listener understands you first time. The sentences use the words you already know, such as family, food, home and school, so all your attention goes to the sound itself and not to the vocabulary.
How to get it right
- Listen to each sentence together first
- Let the child tap the microphone and read aloud
- Celebrate every green word
- Tap red words to hear them and try again

FAQ
English Pronunciation Test for Kids (A1 Beginner): FAQ
What age is this test for?
It suits children who can already read simple sentences, usually from about seven years old. Younger children can do it with an adult reading along.
Is the pronunciation test for kids A1 right for my level?
Yes, if you are a beginner. Every sentence is A1 level with simple words. If you score above ninety on most sentences, try the A2 version of this test.
Is it safe for children to use?
There is no sign-up and nothing is saved on our site. The browser uses its own speech recognition. We recommend that an adult is present while children use the microphone.
Is the pronunciation test for kids A1 free?
Yes. It is completely free, with no sign-up and no download. You only need a microphone and a browser such as Chrome, Edge or Safari.
How is my pronunciation scored?
The browser listens to each sentence and compares what it heard with the text, word by word. Clear words turn green, almost-right words amber and unclear words red, and you get a score out of 100.
Can I choose British or American English?
Yes. Choose British or American English before you start. The model voice, the spelling and the speech recognition all follow the accent you pick.
