How can I become a fluent speaker?
One step at a time! Fluency is as much of a goal as it is a journey. At Lingua, we will accompany you every step along the way, helping you discover new horizons.
For each language, there are six study levels, from A1 for beginners to C2 for proficient speakers. You will already be able to engage in basic conversations after completing level A1. By the time you reach the intermediate levels, B1 and B2, you will be able to communicate with relative ease.
Becoming bilingual takes time, but it is incredibly rewarding. Not only does it look good on a CV, but it allows you to see the world from a different perspective. At Lingua, it is our mission to take you as far as you want to go. The road is long, so let’s get started today!
