LEVELS
At LSL we teach all levels in the target languages:
Beginners (A1 of CEFR)
No previous knowledge of the language is required. You
will learn a useful and practical language for travelling
and socialising and gain language skills.
Beginner continuation (A2 of CEFR)
Students should be able to convey basic information and
use basic greetings. Their ability to communicate is
limited to the most basic structures and vocabulary in
tourist like situations.
Elementary
Students should be able to understand simple questions,
statements and survive in basic situations. E.g. travel,
accommodation, shopping and socialising. Their
comprehension of the language is also limited. They use
mainly present tense, with some set phrases for the
past.
Pre Intermediate (B1 of CEFR)
Students should be able to communicate adequately in
simple everyday situations. They should be able to name
common objects and events and people in familiar roles.
They can use simple expressions for the past, present and
future although still make basic errors.
Intermediate (B2 of CEFR)
Students should be able to communicate their ideas in the
majority of everyday situations and common topics. They
should be able to use a variety of tenses and expressions
with reasonable accuracy and be able to deal confidently
with authentic listening and reading material.
Upper Intermediate (C1 of CEFR)
Students should be able to express themselves quite
fluently, although not always accurately, with a wide
range of vocabulary and a command of comprehensive grammar
structures. They should be able to use the target language
in a variety of contexts.
Advanced (C2 of CEFR)
Student’s should be able to use an extensive range of
tenses and idiomatic expressions and master the relevant
language strategies to be able to deal with highly
specialised tasks.
