Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR)

The Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR) is a guideline used to describe language proficiency levels. It ranges from A1 (beginner) to C2 (proficient), helping learners, teachers, and employers understand an individual's language skills. The framework provides clear descriptors for reading, writing, listening, and speaking abilities, facilitating comparisons between different languages and educational systems. CEFR helps in language learning, assessment, and curriculum development, promoting a standardized approach to language competence across Europe and beyond.
