Let's start below
The step between A2 and B1 is a big one, and it means you’ve achieved a degree of confidence in English. This is when you can go into clothing stores and restaurants and won’t have any trouble making requests from the staff. However, when discussing a topic you’re familiar with, your sentences will still feel slow and you will still have some difficulty. At this level, students are beyond the basics but they are still not able to work or study exclusively in English. However, you can cope with problems in everyday life, such as entering conversations you haven’t prepared for or dealing with problems that arise when traveling.
When you reach B1, you should have a working vocabulary of about 2500 words, and you can recall about half of them with some speed. It takes approximately 350-400 hours with the language to pass the B1 Cambridge examination.
Learning a new language is a long process of acquiring knowledge and sharpening skills. Just diligently study and practice without too concentrating on the exams as the score or grade is merely the evident outcome of the ceaseless progress. Just focus on how to learn so that you can use the language fluently and confidently. So, let’s begin learning whatever you like below and persevering with them.
