The first six units of the Speakout Pre-Intermediate course lay the foundation for everyday communication. Unlike a beginner level, pre-intermediate assumes you have basic survival English skills. Units 1-6 bridge the gap between simple sentences and more complex conversations involving past narratives, future plans, and descriptive language.

The mid-course test does not just check memory; it checks application—can you use the language in realistic speaking and writing scenarios?
