Language Proficiency Levels:
0 – No proficiency. At this point, no absolute knowledge of the language
1 – Elementary proficiency. You can form basic sentences, including asking and answering simple questions.
2 – Limited Working Proficiency. At this level, you can handle basic commands and limited casual conversations. You still need help with more complex conversations.
3 – Professional Working Proficiency. You can make contributions to meetings and hold conversations with customers or clients. You probably still need help understanding more subtle use of the grammar of present and past tense.
4 – Full Professional Proficiency. You can have advanced discussions on a wide range of topics like personal life, current events, and technical topics related to your field. You may occasionally misspeak or make minor mistakes, but your vocabulary is extensive, and you can carry on conversations with ease.
