CEFR - COMMON EUROPEAN FRAMEWORK OF REFERENCE FOR LANGUAGES

If you know your language level, you can more easily choose the right course for you, which will allow you to learn much more effectively.

HOW TO ASSESS YOUR LANGUAGE LEVEL?

In many situations, it is necessary to present the level of our knowledge of a foreign language. This happens, for example, when we prepare our CV, when applying for various types of courses or universities. It will also be needed in NETcollege so that we can carefully plan the classes.
A useful and widely recognized scale is the Council of Europe Scale (CEFR Common European Framework of Reference), which describes the user’s competences by classifying them on a six-point scale, from A1 to C2 (the highest proficiency, considered equal to native speakers). At each level, you can write a TEST PLACEMENT that will help us find out where you are on this scale. There will also be a special practice lesson where the teacher will assess your speaking and understanding skills.

The only thing left for us to do is get to work

If you want to prepare for a foreign language exam, we offer a special exam package. You choose the exam, give the approximate date when you plan to pass it, and we program the classes. You will then receive a special PRE EXAM PAPER.
