CEFR Guideline
Common reference levels
The Common European Framework divides learners into three broad divisions that can each be further divided into two levels; for each level, it describes what a learner is supposed to be able to do in reading, listening, speaking and writing. The following table indicates these levels. A more thorough description of each level, with criteria for listening, reading, speaking, and writing, is available on the Internet.

Testimonials
Joseph Tan
I attended Vietnamese class with Có Hiện. She’s a very dedicated teacher who will go beyond her duty to make sure we understand the lesson better. It’s always enjoyable to take her lesson. Cảm Ơn rất nhiều
Siyu Fang
Very nice experience of private Spanish course. The teacher is experienced, funny and friendly. The staff there are super helpful in terms of scheduling.
Melody Lim
I attended the Thai Basic 1 class and both the admin and teachers helped me a lot in finding the right class (as I have attended previously years ago). Will definitely recommend this school to my family and friends! Thank you Lingo Team!
sintwinity
Took basic German with an excellent teacher Ms. Elena. She has a very clear yet condensed mode of delivery, though sometimes a little bit fast but I can keep up. The location of the school is very convenient, just behind liang seah street near bugis MRT. The school is filled during weekday night classes, though the class size remains small and comfortable. Looking forward to more lessons, and maybe trying Japanese :)
Jingying Chan
Lingo School is an established institution that offers many language courses at affordable prices (especially for working adults), which is the main reason I signed up to learn Spanish. The teachers are friendly, experienced and qualified; the course materials are well-structured to suit learners of every level. I never had any problems with the administration. They're always helpful and responsive. Timings and location are also A++. 100% recommended
Shuyi Tan
I am learning German Language in Lingo School. Robert and Marco are awesome teachers as they never failed to keep the class engaged. They are also very dedicated teachers who ensure that all our doubts are answered even if it means that it is eating into their private time. School staff are generally very friendly and responsive. I have once faced an issue with the class schedules, the principal of the school personally called me to explain the situation, patiently listened to our feedback and took the necessary action to make sure our learning with the school was smooth and enjoyable!

I have made much progress in the language and would highly recommend my friends to take up a language course at this school.

The staff was very helpful and attentive. I had a lot of queries but they assisted me throughout, without showing any sign of frustration. I took up Thai and Japanese course here. The teachers were well-trained and I learnt a lot. Will definitely recommend this place to pick up languages

I have been learning Thai with Lingo for almost one year. Kroo Thip (Native Thai Teacher) has been very friendly and patient towards us. I always look forward to attending the Thai Class every week, as the teacher makes the class very fun and engaging.
Wen Jian
Attended basic 1 for Malay 3 months ago, now at basic 2. Cikgu Shaz was very engaging, and has initiative to give us additional vocabs in different context to help us understand better. Additionally, she was very patient with us from the start, explaining our mistakes clearly and concisely. Will be attending pre intermediate.
