Your personal online one-to-one tuition can take you to C2 full English language fluency.

You’re nearly there now – approaching C1 fluency in English by the time you finish this module. You’ll be able to express ideas without much effort, use language flexibly and effectively for academic and professional purposes, including responding to feedback, establishing rapport and arguing a particular point of view. You’ll understand a wide range of longer and more demanding texts and also understand implicit meanings.

You’ll find that by this level, you’ll have the confidence to undertake key business tasks, such as managing meetings and conference calls and be able to make formal presentations. You’ll feel confident enough to handle difficult questions and complex areas like sales meetings, negotiations and other tasks you can expect in a senior role in a corporation.

At this level, you’ll also revise the verb tenses, learn how to speculate about the future, add emphasis using fronting, cleft sentences, and adverbs, and reference using pronouns.

You will now be ready to study our free business short courses – over 100 courses on finance, sales & marketing, Human Resources and leadership & management. Don’t forget to keep the private tuition going!

Sitting at the top of B2, you’ll be a fairly natural English speaker by the time you’ve finished this level.

You’ll be able to adapt to any changes in the conversation topic and correct any errors that could lead to misunderstanding.

You’ll use the conditional structures (‘If they’d left home later, they’d have missed the bus’), the future perfect (‘The train won’t have left yet’), verbs expressing deduction and perception (look, sound, feel, taste, etc.), and reported speech. You’ll learn general vocabulary relating to forms of government, business, hospitals, crimes, expressions with off, phrasal verbs and expressions with get.

You will still be keeping up to date on current culture with our English Attack service. It’s likely that you’ll have joined one of our online classes and maybe opted for one-to-one tuition as well.

By now you’re really on the road to fluency as you enter the B2 level. Working through this level, you’ll build up the ability to hold fluent conversations and describing hypothetical situations.

You’ll learn amongst other things, to use the future continuous (‘We’ll be skiing this time next week’), the past perfect continuous (‘They’ve been working hard all day’), to express ability and obligation in the future and in the present perfect, and to use the continuous tenses and the passive infinitive (‘We can be contacted by email’).

Your vocabulary will grow in this part with general topics related to technology, facial features, photography, geography, arts, phrasal verbs and expressions.

If you haven’t signed up for our online tuition, you really should think about it to accelerate your learning.

By the time you’ve finished this module, you’re finishing B1+ and really moving towards fluency.  You’ll be able to do things like attend job interviews, give opinions on subjects you’ve seen and heard and answer questions that need detail. Just keep trying and push yourself to get to C1 and beyond.

In this level, you’ll have been taught the passive voice (‘The criminal was arrested’) past perfect (‘I’d finished when they got here’), reported speech (‘She told me she’d passed’), express permission, obligation, and prohibition with modal verbs (‘You may use my phone’). On the course, you’ll pick up vocabulary related to food, lifestyle and phrasal verbs.

You’re now well into B1 level and nearly halfway up the CEFR – give yourself a pat on the back!

Once you’ve finished this level, you’ll be much more fluent in conversations and hopefully, any shyness will have disappeared! In this level, you’ll look at expressing future possibilities, talking about problems, describing abilities, and participating in job interviews.

You will have learnt conditionals (‘If I ran every day, I’d feel healthier’), adjectives and adverbs of probability (sure, certain, definitely, etc.), the verbs ‘tell’ and ‘say’ and infinitive structures.
