Questions
What does B2 level mean?
B2 is upper-intermediate. You can understand the main ideas of complex texts and talk about many topics with some ease. You can also explain your opinion. Example: 'I agree with you, but I think there is another problem.'
How can I learn B2 vocabulary faster?
Learn words in groups by topic, such as injuries or the theatre. Write one short sentence for each new word. Review the words you got wrong after a day, then again after a week. Short, regular practice works best.
How can I practise phrasal verbs?
Learn each phrasal verb as one unit, with its meaning and an example. For example, 'give up' means 'stop trying': 'I gave up smoking last year.' Do a few every day, and try to use new ones when you write or speak.
