Drawing on over 10 years of experience, we have observed a significant challenge: curriculum and materials often do not align with student levels, and decisions regarding them are not based on reliable data. This mismatch leads to ineffective language teaching and learning. Our goal was to offer a solution that goes beyond mere testing, providing educators with insights to personalized learning.
Our approach is rooted in data-driven decision-making, addressing the need for school-wide impact.
In practice, TOEFL YSS assessments are conducted regularly, usually at the beginning and at the end of the school year, evaluating students' language competencies in reading, listening, speaking, and writing.
The detailed feedback enables schools to gain insights into students’ strengths and weaknesses. Using this information, teachers can personalize instruction by designing targeted interventions, adapting teaching methods, and providing additional support where needed. Our training programs help educators effectively interpret assessment data and use feedback in their instructional planning and delivery.
We offer both paper-based and digital testing options, along with online and in-person training. Our effectiveness is measured through qualitative and quantitative methods, supported by rigorous research and validation studies, ensuring assessment validity and reliability.
Over the last 1-2 years, our solution has spread through targeted outreach to schools, institutions, and networks, aiding in revising and adapting English programs. Achievements include increased adoption rates, improved performance, successful teacher training program implementations, and positive educator feedback on student outcomes. Notable milestones include a KA2 Erasmus program completion with an exceptional final score of 90 and an Educational Alliance Finland Accreditation with an outstanding score of 92.
Our goals for the next 2-3 years involve expanding to new regions, boosting participation in training programs, and validating effectiveness through research. We aim to establish partnerships with educational organizations and governments to standardize our program.
