Skill Builder Goals

Why These Goals Matter

These goals come from the CEFR — a guide that shows how language skills grow from beginner (A1) to advanced (C2).

They help you:

  • See what you can do now

  • Know what to work on next

  • Practice using English in real life — not just in textbooks

If you're taking a test or moving up a level (like from A2 to B1), these goals can guide your journey.

What’s Inside

Each goal tells you what you:

  • Should be able to do as you Read

  • Should be able to understand while you Listen

  • Should be able to say when you Speak

  • Should be able to communicate when you Write

Remember: Everyone grows differently! Some people speak well but need reading help. Others write well but struggle to listen. That’s okay!

What’s PIE?

PIE = Pronunciation, Intonation, Expression

These 3 things help you sound natural in English.

  • Pronunciation — Speak clearly and confidently

  • Intonation — Use natural tone, stress, and pauses

  • Expression — Choose the right words for the moment

PIE helps you with all 4 Skills: Reading, Listening, Speaking, and Writing.

How These Goals Can Help

  • See what to focus on at each level

  • Track your progress

  • Plan lessons with your teacher

  • Stay on a clear path from beginner to fluent
