The six levels

What your level means

The test uses the CEFR scale, the European standard for language levels.

A1Beginner

You can understand and use simple everyday phrases.

A2Elementary

You can handle short, routine exchanges on familiar topics.

B1Intermediate

You can get by in most everyday situations and talk about your experiences.

B2Upper intermediate

You can follow complex discussions and speak with some fluency.

C1Advanced

You can express yourself fluently and flexibly for social and professional life.

C2Mastery

You can understand virtually everything and express fine shades of meaning.

Whatever your level, you’ll see what’s holding your speaking back, and what to work on next.
