You know you want to learn German, but you wonder what the letters A, B and C mean? It’s simple: They tell you how advanced your knowledge of a foreign language already is. Generally, A means it’s the beginner level, B means it’s intermediate and C indicates the advanced level – but it’s a fluent passage between the levels. In accordance with the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages, we at speakeasy group our courses into these different levels.
In our intensive courses with four appointments per week, we divide each level into the sublevels 1 and 2, e.g. A1.1 and A1.2. Then you continue with the next higher level, in our example it would be A2.1 and after this A2.2.
Our friendly office team is always happy to help out if you have any questions about your language course. Another great and very convenient way to get answers to the most frequently asked question is our knowledgebase.
