What is CEFR?

CEFR stands for Common European Framework of Reference for Languages. It is a widely-used standard for determining the level of someone’s language ability. There are 6 levels contained within 3 proficiency categories that describe what a speaker can do at each of the levels. If you like research as much as I do, click the button below to read more about the CEFR and its history in a few different languages (there are links to some non-English versions on the right side of the webpage).
