How General English works
What you get
- A free placement test that puts you on the right CEFR level
- Structured A1, A2, and B1 levels - self-paced
- Four modules per level: grammar, vocabulary, listening & speaking, reading & writing
- Video lessons, reference material, timed quizzes, and AI-assisted assignments
- Monthly live group conversation sessions
What it isn't
- A guaranteed level jump in a fixed timeline
- 1:1 tutoring (we offer group live sessions instead)
- IELTS prep - that's a separate program
- A shortcut. Fluency comes from consistent practice
We don't promise levels - no honest provider can. We give you a clear structure, a real placement test, and the practice material to move forward at your own pace.
The CEFR levels
A clear ladder from A1 to C1
The CEFR framework is the global standard for English proficiency. It tells you what you can do at each level - so "improvement" has a real meaning.
A2

Elementary
You can handle everyday situations, simple conversations, and short written exchanges. You understand common expressions.

Upper-intermediate

C1
Coming soon
Advanced
You can express ideas fluently and precisely, using language flexibly for social, academic, and professional purposes.
Timelines are typical, not guaranteed. Your pace depends on your starting level, consistency, and practice outside lessons.
Inside every level
Four modules, consistent across A1–B1
Every level has the same four-module structure. You always know what you're working on and why.

Listening & Speaking
Dialogue-based listening practice and speaking tasks. Pronunciation and fluency work built into every level.
- Audio dialogues with transcripts

Who it's for
This program is designed for you if…
✓
You want to build real, everyday English

You're starting from scratch or rebuilding fundamentals
A1 and A2 are designed for beginners and for learners who want to fill gaps in the basics.
✓
You've plateaued at intermediate level
B1 is where most learners get stuck. A structured level with consistent practice is the way through.
✕
You need IELTS or another exam score
Take our IELTS Prep program instead - it's built specifically for the exam.
✕
You want 1:1 tutoring
We don't offer it. Our model is self-paced lessons, quizzes, AI feedback, plus monthly live group sessions.
✕
You want a guaranteed level jump
No honest provider can promise that. We give you the structure - you bring the consistency.

OS
Omar S.B1 consolidation over 3 months
★★★★★

FAQ
Questions about General English
How do I know which level to start on?
Take the free placement test. It takes about 5 minutes, covers A1–B1 material, and gives you an honest recommendation. If you're between levels, we recommend the lower one - a solid foundation is usually the faster path.
Can I skip levels?
Yes - if the placement test puts you at B1, you start at B1. You don't have to work through A1 and A2 first. The test is designed to identify your actual starting point.
What if I'm between two levels?
Start on the lower level. The material will feel a bit easy at first, but it fills gaps in your foundation - which is almost always the faster route to real fluency. You can move up as soon as you feel ready.
How long does each level take?
Typically 8–14 weeks per level, depending on your starting point and consistency. There's no time limit on your membership - you work at your pace and move to the next level when you're ready.
When will B2 and C1 be available?
B2 and C1 are in development. General English members will get access at no extra cost when they launch. We'll announce the dates to newsletter subscribers first.
Is this program good preparation for IELTS?
It builds the underlying English that IELTS tests, but it isn't IELTS prep. If you have an exam coming up, take our IELTS Prep program instead - it's built specifically around the exam format and scoring criteria.
Do you offer 1:1 tutoring?
We don't currently offer 1:1 lessons. Every program includes self-paced lessons, interactive quizzes, AI-assisted feedback on assignments, and monthly live group sessions.
Are prices in Saudi Riyal (SAR)?
Yes, all prices are shown in Saudi Riyal (SAR). Pay with any major card or PayPal - your bank handles any currency conversion.
