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 his/her 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 he/she feels like, he/she can talk about aspects of their life in detail, e.g. about people, places, job experience or education.
