Understanding the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages

The Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR) was developed by the European Council, in conjunction with the University of Cambridge, to establish international linguistic ability parameters for foreign language speakers. It comprises written comprehension, written production, oral comprehension, and oral production. 

In this framework, language learning is divided into six levels: A1, A2, B1, B2, C1, and C2. 

For the language education programs run by NETEL, the reference descriptions for each of these levels are the following:

Beginner - Can inform and ask for the date and time and use basic greeting structures; can fill out basic forms with personal information such as name, nationality, civil state, etc. 

Elementary (CEFR A1) - Can comprehend and use everyday idioms and simple sentences to satisfy concrete needs; can introduce themselves and others, ask questions and give answers about personal aspects such as place of living, common acquaintances, and personal belongings; can communicate autonomously if the speaker talks slowly and clearly.  

Pre-intermediate (CEFR A2) - Can comprehend isolated sentences and frequent expressions related to areas of immediate priority; can communicate direct information about familiar subjects in the execution of simple and daily tasks; can briefly describe their surroundings and talk about their education.

Can communicate with a certain degree of spontaneity with native speakers, without tension. Can express themselves clearly and with details on a wide variety of themes, as well as explain their own point of view, listing advantages, disadvantages, and numerous possibilities.

Can use the language flexibly e effectively for social, academic, and professional purposes. Can express opinions on complex themes clearly and concisely, dominating structure mechanisms, articulation, and cohesion.
