The Common European Framework of Reference for Languages , or CEFR , is a reference document used in the context of language learning, specifically to help determine the language skill level of a person, on a global scale. The CEFR language scale is the most commonly referenced chart for designing language teaching programs and benchmarks.
There are 3 main levels of classification which are subdivided into 2 sub-levels each, forming a total of 6 levels. Each level of the framework corresponds to a practical skill, or more precisely, what the person is able to do using the language; whether that is introducing oneself, expressing broad ideas, having a structured and nuanced conversation, etc. This frame of reference better indicates a person's ability to use the language accurately in any given situation.
The CEFR language scale is important because it establishes a universally applicable classification system in all acceding countries and in any language. Therefore, language tests used in Europe must lead to a classification based on the CEFR levels .
Pipplet offers a quick and free tool for self-assessment, structured with 'can-do' CEFR descriptors. This creates an opportunity for you to benchmark your pre-determined CEFR classification level against the six pre-outlined reference levels in the CEFR.
