(((Exams what it means - speak foreign language? For each idea of \u200b\u200bthis, your own: someone is content with the level that allows you to travel freely in Europe, and someone has little to read Shakespeare in the original. Subjective criteria in this matter are very varying - from the knowledge of the necessary phrases to the intuitive sense of language (which sometimes does not even get those who speak it from childhood). Nevertheless, we learn a foreign language with some purpose - moving to another country, training in a foreign university, the need to hold English to work.
What to say, "just so," the language itself will never learn. Accordingly, no one can do without external criteria, that is, those parameters for which language knowledge will be checked in practice. Therefore, we will look at the gradation of the levels of ownership of the most common foreign language - English - according to the CEFR scale developed by the Council, comparable to the results of popular exams (IELTS / TOFL / CAMBRIDGE / PTE) and give some tips for gradually mastering the language from the elementary level to the highest.

Comparative table levels and scores for exams

How to find out your own level?

Today, the level of English proficiency can be determined even without leaving the house, thanks to numerous online tests. Below is a selection of several such tests. It should be borne in mind that such tests will not allow absolutely accurately to display the level of language proficiency, since the resources on which they are placed are most often related to language schools that have paid or offline resources for the accurate level estimate. Therefore, even having received the result on the CEFR scale should take into account possible errors of online tests. In addition, some tests in their content cannot necessarily objectively assess the knowledge of the language of advance (C1-C2).
Some of the following tests suggest registration before testing, but there are many tests on the network, which allow you to obtain the result only after registering on the site or access to the language school, which is greatly annoying and leads to additional time costs, therefore in tables such tests Not taken into account.

Complex tests

Tests of this kind include tasks in various areas of knowledge of language: auditing (listening), understanding of text (Reading), grammar (grammar) and vocabular knowledge (Vocabulary). Comprehensive online tests do not include only one important parameter - verification of oral speech (SPEAKING). Such tests can be considered the most objective.

Tests on dictionary and grammar

A good option for those who want to quickly define their approximate level of language proficiency. The level of grammar's knowledge will allow you to quickly navigate in its level, because good knowledge in this area is an important "skeleton", which can be successfully increasing the other linguistic knowledge.

The assessment was prepared on a ten-point scale based on five main criteria:

• Grammar - how deeply the knowledge of the grammar of the English language is checked, including the knowledge of the times, conditional proposals, the apparent proposals, the coordination of the time, passive pledge.
• The verbs - separately assessed as in detail the test checks on the knowledge of the verbs of the English language: incorrect, modal, phrase. The same parameter includes assignments in the test to know the use of verbs with verbs, infinitive and gerundia.
• The dictionary is an assessment of the diversity of vocabulary testing, as well as the presence of tasks for its use.
• Auditting - If the test contains this part, the level of its complexity, the speed of the auditation, the presence of various voice timbres, artificial interference, accents, etc. is estimated.
• Reading - Assessment of tasks for perception and understanding of the text, if any in the test. Preferably the complexity of texts.

The number of tasks on a particular partition, the knowledge component and the complexity of tasks playing a major role.

Why is it important to know your level of language?

• To properly determine its goals - only knowing its own level of owning a foreign language, one can adequately evaluate its capabilities, as well as determine short-term and long-term goals, which will correctly choose the program of classes and find a competent mentor.
• The need to indicate in when admission to work - many modern companies are asked to indicate applicants in their summary level of owning a foreign language, confirmed by the relevant certificate. To get a good position in the international firm, you need to know the language at a high level.
• For learning abroad - to enter the prestigious college or university is impossible without good knowledge of a foreign language. And again, the members of the admission committee need confirmation - language certificate.

Foreign language in practice: What is important?

The first thing you need to know is: the level of language proficiency is checked only in practice. It is almost impossible to identify real language skills to the real language skills, even with the help of Internet tests, as they define only the knowledge of grammar and a very limited dictionary. Therefore, it is not necessary to especially rely on similar results, as in fact everything will be completely different.

In determining the level of ownership by any foreign language, including English, experts pay attention to 4 main skills: audition, reading, speech and letter. It is these skills that usually check on various international tests. Obviously, Internet tests will help evaluate only the first two criteria, although in practice much more important to be able to express themselves in speech and writing.
The complexity of self-definition of a foreign language level is not only difficult to evaluate itself, but also in the fact that the second language as a whole is rarely held at a certain level. That is, you can be able to understand the most complex texts in a foreign language that correspond to an advanced level, but with great difficulty to speak independently. It turns out that on the one hand, a person knows the language at the level of a professional, and on the other hand, communicative skills are almost not developed. How then should I define your English level? Professional linguists and experts determine the ownership of a foreign language in accordance with several levels that apply not only to English, but also to most languages \u200b\u200bof the world.

A0 - zero level of English

IELTS.	Toefl	Cambridge.	PTE
0	0	-	0

In truth, this level does not exist at all, but it will certainly be necessary to mention it, since 80% of self-critical beginners confidently attribute to themselves full of ignorance. Attention: if a person knows how the word translates dog or house.This is already some level. Whatever the source of knowledge: two years of studying English in school, once a read-up in English or two weeks of classes with a tutor 15 years ago - these knowledge remain in a person in the head forever. This is important because even the minimum base will serve as an excellent basis for the subsequent study.
If we talk about zero level, then this means full ignorance English (it will be true if a person knows the English as much as Filipino). In this case, it is possible to sign up for English courses in the native country. For about 3 months, the level of the tongue will rise to the conversational B1. If a person is still a sign visually with an English alphabet and knows what "Hello! How Are you you?", This indicates a language proficiency at the level A1.
start with lessons for absolute beginners, where you can master the alphabet, reading rules, keywords for understanding simple English, learn 300 new words (this will require no more than two weeks).

A1 - the initial level of English - Beginner

IELTS.	Toefl	Cambridge.	PTE
2	15	-

This level is also called the "survival level". This means that being in one of the cities of England or America, a person with the help of local residents will be able to get at least to the Russian embassy. In no case, this level cannot be called conversational, as a connected conversation, of course, will not come out. But if you discard jokes to the side, then with such a level you can go to the language courses abroad.
Even minimal skills already allow you to be loud-poor to convey to the interlocutor some information, let it not without the help of gesture. Usually, these levels are owned by those who taught English once for a long time and without much pleasure. Of course, practical skills are absolutely no, but there are postponed in memory of knowledge that will serve as a good basis for further learning language.
The student owns the language at the level A1, if:

• responsible to basic questions: name, age, native country, profession;
• understands familiar phrases, provided that the narrator speaks slowly and clearly;
• understands some individual words in the English text.

How to go to the next step: teaching the rules of reading and pronunciation, get acquainted with the rules of grammar English, learn about 300 new words.

A2 - Basic English proficiency level - Elementary

IELTS.	Toefl	Cambridge.	PTE
3.5	31	Ket Pass.	30

If you can live with the initial level and do not guess this, then the baseline Elementary. It assumes some awareness or, at least, the memory that "once I taught something like." Again, to a conversational level is still far away, but in contrast to A1 can already be obtained by any dialogue.
If you return to the hypothetical situation of your stay in one of the cities of England, then it is a little more rainbow: with the baseline, you can not just get to the embassy, \u200b\u200bbut also to talk with a foreigner (for example, tell a little about your profession or make an order in a cafe).
In practice, A2 differs little from A1, and the main advantage of the first is more self-confidence and a slightly richer dictionary. Nevertheless, the possibilities of communication are still limited, so the level A2 is suitable only as a base for study, as in practice there is no place to apply it.
The student owns the language at the level A2 if:

• talking about household topics: can tell or ask the way, talk about yourself and about the surrounding things;
• understands the question of the interlocutor in the dialog, provided that he speaks clearly and on a familiar topic;
• can read and understand the elementary sentences ( I Have ..., You are ..., He Goes ...);
• create a simple sentence in text form or fill out a questionnaire in English.

How to go to the next step: continue to study grammar, practice in writing small texts, teach the wrong verbs and their temporary shapes, practicing the skills of spoken speech (you can do this on Skype or in spoken clubs), watch movies and TV shows in English with Russian subtitles, learn about 500 new words.

Very often between the initial and colloquial level, the intermediate level is distinguished, which implies that a person can already use English to solve some vital tasks, but still does not speak spoken English. If you relate it to the A0-C2 scale, then this level can be described as A2 + or B1-.
It is possible to determine it as follows:

• partial hit by the level of B1 level, but lack of practice in some aspects (for example, a letter) indicates knowledge of language at the level Pre-intermediate;
• full hit by a description of the level A2 and partial under level B1 (for example, more developed speaking skills) indicates knowledge of language at the level Upper-Elementary.

How to go to the next level: pay attention to those skills that are lacking up to the next level, and work on them, based on the tips to promote the next level in paragraph about A2.

B1 - Medium English proficiency level - Intermediate

IELTS.	Toefl	Cambridge.	PTE
4	60	Pet Pass	43

When the competence of proficiency is over the framework of a rigorous speech on the location of museums and restaurants, and English speech and text are becoming more understandable, these facts indicate that the student is at the first step of spoken English. But besides the conversation, this level still implies good reading skills of adapted texts, as well as an understanding of the main grammar of English. Statistically, most of the tourists know the language at this level, which allows them to communicate with the interlocutor to household topics without difficulty. Usually, modern graduates finish school at least with a level B1 (as a maximum of B2). Nevertheless, to free proficiency, there is still a lot of work.
The student owns the language at B1, if:

• confidently supports a conversation on any household topic with a good pronunciation, although still with some sticks and mistakes;
• understands the interlocutor, and also partially catches the meaning of a complex speech (lecture) or conversation between English-speaking (film);
• reads adapted literature with a dictionary and understands the meaning of ordinary texts;
• it can make a small essay about himself or about the world, using common semantic structures and words.

How to go to the next step: to master advanced vocabulary and grammar, more practiced in writing English (this will help the tutor or sites for self-studying English, for examplePolyglotclub. ), you need to communicate more in English with carriers or advanced users, to regularly monitor English-speaking sources of information (news publications, entertainment articles, interest sites), watch movies and TV shows with English subtitles (at first it may seem quite difficult, but with Time it will bring its fruits). It is equally important to replenish your vocabulary, so at least 1,000 new words should be learned.

B2 - Higher Middle Level - Upper-Intermediate

IELTS.	Toefl	Cambridge.	PTE
6	90	FCE GRADE C.	59

If the student has good conversational skills (level above average), can support a detailed conversation with a foreigner, he understands the speech on rumor, looks at the English-speaking films and serials without translation and subtitles, which means that he owns a foreign language at B2. It should be noted that people who are not familiar with English are confident that there is a real foreigner before them. Nevertheless, do not be deceived. Upper-intermediate - It is really a great achievement, but even it is sometimes not enough for professional activities. Also, the disadvantages include the fact that it will be more difficult to move above independently. However, for admission to a foreign university with the average requirements for applicants of this level, it is quite enough, so you can not worry and boldly sign up for TEFL or IELTS exams.
The student owns the language at B2, if:

• dimensively speaks almost any topic, expresses its own relation or spaciously describes his thoughts (however, at this level, some errors are still allowed to withdraw verbs, times and use of complex words);
• understands oral speech on the household theme and about 80% of complex speech (lectures, films, interviews);
• good understands the meaning of information texts in English, draws information from English-speaking resources without a significant loss of meaning (with the use of a dictionary for reading texts to an unfamiliar subject);
• the argument is set out its thoughts on the letter using common structures (albeit with minor errors).

How to go to the next step: study the advanced grammar of the English language, practicing in writing texts in various styles (formal, academic, professional), to teach yourself most of the information draw from English-speaking sources (for example, a few weeks read news only in English), learn phrase verbs, listen to lectures and watch Cognitive films in English, replenish the vocabulary (it is desirable to learn 600 new words.

C1 - Advanced English Ownership - Advanced

IELTS.	Toefl	Cambridge.	PTE
7.5	100	CAE GRADE C.	76

Perhaps the difference between an advanced level from the highest average can only understand a professional or anglophone and, of course, speaking himself, but only if he has the so-called "sense of language": when it becomes clear when it becomes clear that words are used correctly, but the offer can be built somewhat differently , pose more elegant words or suitable terms. This is a sign that the problem of language knowledge slowly flowed to the problem of its competent use, which, in turn, indicates an extremely high level of knowledge of English as a foreign one. Of course, and speech is not about some kind of misunderstanding of the language. The student with the level C1 perfectly perceives information on hearing and can express their thoughts on paper. The only thing that is not entirely under power is Shakespeare and Lolita Nabokov in the original without a dictionary. This level is recommended for employment to a foreign company, it opens the doors of almost all foreign universities (including the top-end - Yale University, University College of London,).
The student owns the language at the C1 level if:

• no problem speaks to any topic, expresses shades of emotions and relationships in the language;
• understands any oral speech;
• free readers in English as informational (articles, newspapers, interviews) and scientific (articles in scientific journals, textbooks, works of philosophers, journalists, critics), occasionally facing unfamiliar words;
• he knows how to draw up access to the employer, motivational letters, clearly understands what the formal style of writing from informal is different.

How to go to the next step: continue working with complex texts in English, read the artworks of American and British authors in the original, listen to professional lectures on the topic of English literature, familiarize yourself with the idios and speech figures in English, to communicate with the native speakers.

C2 - Professional Ownership Level - Proficient

IELTS.	Toefl	Cambridge.	PTE
8.5	118	CPE GRADE C.	85

The upper step in the graduation of English levels is the level C2. It should be noted that it is still a step, not the final stop. In fact, the C2 level corresponds to the excellent knowledge of English as foreign, competent use for any professional and consumer situation, the ability is free (well, or almost free) to read artistic and professional literature in English. Nevertheless, know English at the C2 level - it does not mean to know him, as they like to speak, in excellence.
Any linguist or philologist will confirm that he has given a language in perfection - this is a lot of very few, and these few usually become brilliant writers or word masters. But if you take the most obvious example, formed by the resident of London, it also goes beyond the c2 level (usually those who speak English since childhood are called native Speakers.And, of course, it is not included in the graduation of knowledge of English as a foreign language).
It should always be remembered that there is no limit to perfection, although the language proficiency at the C2 level is a great result to which a few come. With such a level, you can enroll on any post-type program, publish work in English, to conduct conferences and lectures, i.e. Almost for any professional activity of this level will be more than enough.
The student owns the language at the C2 level if:
How to improve your English: to spend several years in an English-language country, for example, at the university or in the internship. And, of course, read.

What should be aware of the study of foreign languages?

An independent study of a foreign language is quite possible, but this idea requires a lot of strength, time, as well as such qualities, durability and dedication. At first, classes seem interesting, but the lack of a clear program, correctly set goals, a temporary framework and a teacher who controls the learning process and motivates the student leads to another breakdown and the lack of desire to continue learning the language.
That is why it is desirable to master a new language together with the teacher on individual or group classes. When the main material is passed, to improve the skill of communication and an increase in the vocabulary of the vocabulary, you can go abroad. Without training in the country, where the language studied is the main one, it is impossible to master it perfectly, even by doing the most advanced benefits.
The fact is that a living modern language varies daily, and special training editions simply do not have time to track these metamorphoses. We are talking about modern slang, foreign language borrowings, diversity of dialects, etc., who are changing the language every day. Know English at the carrier level is possible, but for this it is necessary to be in the appropriate language environment, where the student will have to join a foreign language society, be aware of news that are covered in the press or on the Internet.

How much time will you need to study a foreign language?

The answer to this question depends on several factors: the objectives of the student, its ambitiousness and diligence, as well as solvency. It is quite logical that it is possible to learn a foreign language faster only with the help of a qualified teacher (perhaps even a native speaker). This is a real investment in the future, which will definitely pay off, but also requires quite considerable investments.
The faster the student wants to master a foreign language, the more he will have to pay. Theoretically, the passage of all levels (without accommodation abroad) can take about 2.5 - 3 years, for this you will have to attend special courses several times a week. If you do it yourself, there will be much more time to study the language. When learning abroad, the student receives the same volume of knowledge much faster.

Miracles do not happen!

Beginners to master a foreign language should clearly understand that the learning process requires a matter of mass of time, as well as certain efforts of itself, since there will always be a reason to move the occupation or postpone the fulfillment of the homework for later. Training is a tremendous work! Therefore, it is impossible to learn the language for a month with the help of a new "unique author's technique" or 25th frame. Miracles do not happen! Only work on errors and a consistent analysis of the new material will help achieve the desired level.

Time to increase levels

The table indicates the number of intensive English weeks to raise the language in Kaplan International schools.

English levels

In the center of English "English World" presents a variety of programs that meet the needs of students of any age and with any level of knowledge. It is very important for us to be comfortable and easy to study on the selected program in our courses! In this regard, when determining your level of language proficiency, we focus on the system of language competencies of the European Council "Common European Framework of Reference" (CEFR). The corresponding directive was developed by the Council of Europe as the main part of the project "Learning Languages \u200b\u200bfor European Citizenship" ("Language Learning for European Citizenship") between 1989 and 1996. The main goal of the CEFR system is to provide a method for assessing and learning applicable to all European languages. In November 2001, the EU Council resolution recommended the use of CEFR to create national language competence assessment systems.

All English courses in our school are designed for levels according to CEFR. Additionally, the methodists of the center highlighted the "Beginner 0" level, which corresponds to a zero level of language ownership (A0).

Multi-level English learning system

Lasts past.
If present for a long time (Present Continuous) is used to designate events that occur here and now, then the last time (Past Continuous) is used if you need to talk about what happened once and lasted for a while. For example, from 5 to 6 hours yesterday. Or the day before yesterday. Or last week. But it was not that (as in the case of a simple passing time, Past Simple), and was happening. As they say, it happened, and did not happen.

For its formation, simply replacing the forms of the verb to Be, which were used for Present Continuous, on the appropriate forms of past time.

Believe in yourself, otherwise others do not have a reason to believe in you. English increasingly penetrates our lives. If earlier they used only travelers and translators, now the situation has changed. Without knowing the language, it is difficult not only to get a highly paid position, but also learn to work on a computer, read the instructions for household appliances, etc.

Schoolchildren and students are usually forced to engage English in courses or in an educational institution. But those who have reached the age of 25 and did not master english, it is difficult to convince to take care of study. We find a million excuses, remembering how I have to have spent 10 years at school for learning English! Hurry to record yourself in non -umanitaries? Of course, lower your hands easier. But we offer an effective approach to solving this problem.

First you need to destroy myths and get rid of imaginary obstacles that interfere with us to start learning English. Some of them can be read in the article ". Change destructive thoughts on constructive! Let's find out which installations prevent us from learn English in adulthood.

Negative installations that interfere with learning English adult man

1. Languages \u200b\u200bare easier to study in childhood

A common misconception, which from an early age is driven into our head. Some English teachers intimidate schoolchildren: "You will not learn the language at school, never will not learn. Try until it is possible to understand something. You do not want to be a janitor? " Agree, without inspiring motivation. But, nevertheless, it is postponed in the head: it is necessary to learn, while young, nothing will happen in adulthood.

Actually: Everything will work out! And at 20, and at 30, and in 80. Forget about what you heard at school. Around the world, people prove: it's never late to learn. We want to give an example from our practice: about 80% of students are adults aged 25 to 50 years. And the older student is 86 (!) Years, he wanted to improve his English to communicate with grandchildren living in the United States. Children did not know Russian, so the grandfather had to hastily learn English. And he reached his goal! Of course, our student did not pass the exams, did not master the tongue perfectly, but learned to talk to common topics without any special difficulties.

Adults are remarkably coped with the study of English, freely communicate with native speakers and rent international exams perfectly. What is their secret? They are ordinary people just an adult person is easier to concentrate in class, understand complex rules. Modern learning techniques take into account all the features of our memory and allow you to master the English language at any age. While there is a desire, there is an opportunity.

2. What will they say about the surrounding?

People who consider something impossible should not interfere with people who make it possible. (Chinese proverb) Unfortunately, friends and loved ones do not always support our desire for knowledge. Some begin to talk about the lost time, others - about an empty waste of money, the most harmful - that we will not work. Sometimes someone else plays a crucial role for us, we refuse our desires to eat whose whirlpools.

Actually: For that you are an adult to make a decision on your own. It is not always worth listening to loved ones and go for the flow. Explain their native that knowledge of English will allow you to earn more, will give you to feel another person. Everything is possible until you want it!

3. I will be the most eldest / old courses

It sounds ridiculous, but so reflect on people aged 25-30 years. Such thoughts often arise from those who have to start mastering English from the first stage. They think that they will come to occupation, and their coarticles will be 8-9-year-old schoolchildren, young and active.

Actually: Pupils in groups are gaining according to age and level of knowledge. Believe among beginners are full of your peers. If you are experiencing some embarrassment of comparison with other students, we recommend learning English with a personal teacher. Do alone with the teacher comfortably and efficiently.

4. I have no tendency to tongues

We do not get tired of reminding: There are no people who are unable to learn English, there are those who do not want to do this for some reasons. For some reason, some believe that a person needs to have a special mindset, have linguistic abilities, to be a philologist by education to know the language well.

Actually: Both "Techinari" and humanities are perfectly coped with the study of English. Moreover, among the polyglot many people with a mathematical warehouse of the mind, they know how to analyze information, are able to absorb large volumes of material. You need to choose the right approach, use interesting learning methods.

5. I work, I have no time to study

This is one of the most popular installations. We are accustomed to living in a hurry, go somewhere, scold a quickly current time. Yes, work takes away from us a lot of strength, but there are also days off. You can highlight a little time for training on Saturday and Sunday. Of course, we want to rest at the weekend, but we do not think that, reaching the necessary level of knowledge, we will get the opportunity to take a more promising position, to change the scope of activities, improve working conditions.

Actually: Each person can pay English 3-4 hours a week. We advise you to make time management, you can find many articles on the Internet on this topic. For a start, read an interesting article on our blog "Time Management, or Trying to Find Time for ... Time", it will briefly tell you about the basics of time management. You can try a simple method: recording all things in a diary during the week. After seven days, look where the precious moments are drunk. Perhaps you unproductive use free time, and your schedule needs to be improved? We think everyone will have their own "time absorbers", from which you can get rid of. Replace useless things to learn English.

6. Learn boring

With the word "learning", many remember how they fell asleep at lectures at the university. We cannot even allow the idea that studying may not only be useful and necessary, but also fascinating. Our stereotypes are often not justified at all, you can make sure about it yourself.

Actually: Indeed, tooling the dictionary and sit over the grammar is very boring. Uninteresting textbooks, dry wording, learning cut off from the realities of dialogs and texts - all this remained in the distant past. A modern approach in training involves the use of a variety of materials. In English, students are talking to the interesting topics, watching the video, listen to songs, study fascinating texts. The motto of the modern English teacher: studies in joy, and not in a burden.

7. I do not know where to start, suddenly nothing will happen

Release your prejudices to the will and be open with new knowledge. Waiting for you! Neophobia (fear of all new) lives in every person. We are afraid to learn the language, go on the journey, change the job. Think, do you lose much if you try? And if you do not realize your thoughts, risk losing the ability to dream and believe in a dream.

Actually: There is nothing complicated in learning English. Millions of people around the world are taught and will teach it. Do not know what to take first? For you, we have compiled a detailed step-by-step instruction "" and wrote an article "". And if you want a competent teacher to help you quickly achieve the goal, we offer in our school. Do not be afraid to embody dreams to reality.
