English Level B1

The B1 level corresponds to independent users of the language, meaning those who have enough fluency to communicate comfortably with native speakers. It is important to remember that the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFRL) is a system that defines and explains different levels of oral and written expression and understanding for languages such as English. It consists of six levels, divided into three main groups: A (basic user), B (independent user), and C (proficient user). Each group is further divided into two sublevels: 1 and 2.

He/she can deal with most situations likely to arise while travelling in an area where the language is spoken.

He/she can produce simple, connected texts on topics that are familiar or of personal interest.

He/she can describe experiences, events, dreams, and ambitions, and briefly give reasons and explanations for opinions and plans
