Language learning folks!

Whether using classes, tutors, apps, immersion, books, or a combination, it's good to know how to measure progress and proficiency.

The EU agreed on specific criteria to assign 6 levels (A1, A2, B1, B2, C1, C2) to 4 aspects of communication (reading, listening, speaking, and writing).

And Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR) can be used for ANY language. And fluency may differ for reading vs speaking, etc.
