Campus Langues offers 9 levels of English courses, following the Common European Framework defined by the CECR.
We divided each level into sub-levels that allows you to study in a homogenous group, tailored to your needs.
To move from a level to another depends on you, on how much personal work you put in and to what extent you use French on a daily basis.
The length of the ability levels is variable. The higher the level, the longer it is.
