Where do you stand now in teaching or learning English?
You may be a student, teacher, employee or boss in any part of the world.  The right thing to do before starting your journey to master English is to find where you are now.  You can test your English level by observing the standard CEFR.

The international standard for testing your language ability is CEFR (the Common European Framework of References for Languages).  There are six levels as given below any one of which may be your current English level:

A 1  = Basic levels (entry)– it’s the entry level for beginner.  If you don’t know even basics of English, you have to start with and complete A1 level first. If you pass A1 level, you will be able t introduce yourself and others in English, ask and answer simple questions and communicate with others who speak slowly for you.  Do you want to test whether you crossed this level?  Click here and take the test: http://www.englishjet.com/english_courses_files/test_beginners.asp

A2 = Basic level (elementary) – it’s for those who has crossed A1.  If you pass A2 level, you can speak on familiar and routine matters in English and describe your background, environment and other matters of immediate need.

B1: Intermediate Level – it’s for those who passed A2 level.  When you finish B1 level, you can deal with any new situations arising during travel.  You can also describe your experiences,  events, dreams and hopes.

B2: upper intermediate level – for those who completed B1. This B2 level is your level if you can have technical discussions in your area of specialization and interact with native speakers of English without strain.

C1 : Advanced English level – for those who crossed B1. C1 level enables you to use English language fluently, spontaneously, flexibly and effectively for social, academic and professional purposes.

C2 : Proficiency level : for those who got through C1.  C2 is the highest level that indicates your mastery of English language.  You can now create, summarize and reconstruct spoken and written sources even in complex situations.  This is actually (has to be?!) the level of teachers and professors.
