The Common European Framework Scale (CEFR)

Good morning!

I’m finally on time after all these weeks! Or sometimes if I’m not on time, I don’t post at all! I’m so sorry if you’ve missed me, but here I am! Rising and shining!

The CEFR scale is pretty simple to explain, but I’m not very good at explaining. So, I’ll link you to good ole Wiki for extra assurance that everything I say won’t be on this blog. I even tried getting help from BL Benny Lewis on explaining this, but all I got was this page as well  Good luck!

My Explanation

The CEFR scale consists of levels A1, A2, B1, B2, C1, C2. Other language programs have their own mini-levels, like EF has A1.1 to A1.3 and A2.1 to A2.3, and so on. I’ve heard A0 before, which makes sense when you’re just beginning! A, B, and C levels, as stated in the chart are a starter, intermediate, and proficient levels. These are groups for the groups. More levels, it’s very confusing.

I know, very short post this week, but comment if you have any questions and I’ll answer them! Let me know if you want a follow up on why the coinciding exams are beneficial!

  1. I really love your posts and look so forward to them every week so I hope you post at the regular time regularly! LOL! I really understood the explanation of the levels! I did not understand it before so thank you very much! Do u teach any languages on italic or anything? And what are your plans on certifications like the Delia and and the tesol? I was wondering what the importance of these were to language learners and those of us who want to teach other languages.. thanks look forward to your next post!!
