CEFRL Chapter 3.4: Common Reference Levels: Qualitative aspects of spoken language (p. 28-29)
Level - B2
- Range:
Has a sufficient range of language to be able to give clear descriptions, express viewpoints on most general topics, without much conspicuous searching for words, using some complex sentence forms to do so.
- Accuracy:
Shows a relatively high degree of grammatical control. Does not make errors which cause mis-understanding, and can correct most of his/her mistakes.
- Fluency :
Can produce stretches of language with a fairly even tempo; although he/she can be hesitant as he/she searches for patterns and expressions. There are few noticeably long pauses.
- Interaction:
Can initiate discourse, take his/her turn when appropriate and end conversation when he/she needs to, though he/she may not always do this elegantly. Can help the discussion along on familiar ground confirming comprehension, inviting others in, etc.
- Coherence:
Can use a limited number of cohesive devices to link his/her utterances into clear, coherent discourse, though there may be some ‘jumpiness’ in a long contribution.
