Prerequisites: A2
Goal: A2+

At this level a more active participation in conversations is possible, though some restrictions in communicative ability still remain and support is sometimes needed; e.g: the learner can start/hold/end a conversation on limited, familiar matters; he/she can deal with routine information in everyday situations, but still cannot fully realize their communicative intention and has to search for words. In addition, the ability of sustained monologue is better developed, e.g.: he/she can express in simple words how they feel like, can talk about aspects of their life in detail, e.g. about people, places, job experience or education.
