CEFR level guide

Six levels — one global standard

The CEFR is recognised worldwide as the definitive framework for language learning. BSL teaches and certifies students at all six levels from A1 through to C2.

A1
Beginner
Begin with the basics. A1 gives you the core vocabulary, phrases, and listening skills needed for the most fundamental daily interactions.
A2
Elementary
Expand your range. A2 learners can handle routine situations, understand frequent expressions, and communicate about immediate needs.
B1
Intermediate
Handle most daily challenges. Understand the main points of standard speech and writing, and produce connected text on familiar subjects.
B2
Upper-Intermediate
High-level independence. Follow complex spoken and written content, express views clearly and spontaneously, and produce nuanced writing.
C1
Advanced
Full professional competence. Express yourself fluently, spontaneously, and precisely — with subtle distinctions in meaning even on complex topics.
C2
Mastery
The highest level. C2 means full mastery: reading any text, listening to any speech, and writing or speaking with native-level precision.

Trusted by students from Tanzania and 96+ countries.

BSL is the best IELTS preparation institute for students in Tanzania. I enrolled from Dar es Salaam and the quality of coaching was genuinely world-class. In three months my IELTS band score improved from 5.5 to 7.0 and I secured my UK student visa. The 24×7 live online classes are ideal for students across Tanzania. Highly recommend.
