Common European Framework CEFR Levels
The Common European Framework of Reference (CEFR) defines six English proficiency levels — from A1 (Beginner) to C2 (Proficient). Find out your CEFR level with our online English test, then explore detailed level descriptions below.
A1
Beginner
English level A1 is the first level of English in the Common European Framework of Reference (CEFR), a definition of different language levels written by the Council of Europe. In everyday speech, this level would be called "beginner", and indeed, that is the official level descriptor in the CEFR. Students at A1 can understand and use familiar everyday expressions and basic phrases.
Learn more about A1→
A2
Elementary
English level A2 is the second level of English in the CEFR. This level might be described as "basic" — as in "I speak basic English". The official level descriptor in the CEFR is "elementary". At this level, students have mastered the basics of English and can communicate simple, basic needs. A2 English is the foundation for independent English use.
Learn more about A2→
B1
Intermediate
English level B1 is the third level of English in the CEFR. In everyday speech, this level would be called "intermediate". At this level, students are beyond the basics but they are still not able to work or study exclusively in English. B1 English speakers can handle familiar topics, describe experiences, and produce simple connected text.
Learn more about B1→
B2
Upper-Intermediate
English level B2 is the fourth level of English in the CEFR. This level might be called "confident", as in "I am a confident English speaker". The official level descriptor is "upper intermediate". B2 English speakers can function independently in a variety of academic and professional environments in English, although with a limited range of nuance and precision.
Learn more about B2→
C1
Advanced
English level C1 is the fifth level of English in the CEFR. In everyday speech, this level would be called "advanced", and that is the official level descriptor. At this level, students can function independently and with a great deal of precision on a wide variety of subjects and in almost any setting without any prior preparation. C1 is the level employers and universities look for.
Learn more about C1→
C2
Proficient
English level C2 is the sixth and final level of English in the CEFR. This level might be called "bilingual". A well-educated native English speaker is technically at a C2 level. Relatively few English learners reach this level because their professional or academic goals do not require it. C2 proves exceptional mastery of English.
