Free English Course Online, A1 to C2
Updated 27 September 2026 · 4 min read
KitWren’s English course takes you from your first words to near-native precision without paying a cent or creating an account. It follows the CEFR levels used by schools, employers and universities worldwide — six courses and around 270 lessons — with practice in grammar, vocabulary, reading, listening, writing, speaking and pronunciation, plus full IELTS and TOEFL preparation. Here’s what each level covers and how to get the most from it.
Find your level first
The free English level test has 30 questions — five at each level from A1 to C2, drawn at random from a larger bank, so a retake gives you different questions. You pass a level by answering at least three of its five questions correctly. Your result is the highest level you pass, and if you pass it comfortably the test recommends starting one level higher. Nothing is sent anywhere: your result stays on your device.
What each course covers
| Course | Lessons | By the end you can… |
|---|---|---|
| A1 — Beginner | 42 | Introduce yourself, talk about family, food and daily life, and ask simple questions |
| A2 — Elementary | 40 | Describe your routine and past events, make plans, and write short messages |
| B1 — Intermediate | 51 | Talk about experiences and opinions, handle travel, and write connected paragraphs |
| B2 — Upper intermediate | 50 | Discuss complex topics, follow detailed arguments, and write structured essays |
| C1 — Advanced | 50 | Use English flexibly for study and work, including academic and professional writing |
| C2 — Proficient | 40 | Express fine shades of meaning, argue persuasively, and understand virtually everything |
Each lesson explains one topic with clear examples, then gives you practice exercises that are marked instantly, so you know straight away what to review. The CEFR levels guide describes each level in more detail.
Practice beyond the lessons
- Grammar library — look up any grammar point, from articles to the third conditional.
- Vocabulary trainer — spaced repetition brings words back just before you’d forget them.
- Listening and reading practice at every level.
- Writing tasks and speaking practice.
- Pronunciation — sounds, word stress and intonation.
- Daily English — a short practice session for every day.
IELTS and TOEFL
If you need an English test score for study, work or migration, the exam courses cover every section with strategy lessons and original practice: IELTS preparation (38 lessons) and TOEFL preparation (37 lessons). Most universities ask for an upper-intermediate to advanced level, so it’s worth reaching B2 in the main course before focusing on exam technique. Check the score your university, employer or visa requires — see IELTS band scores explained.
| Your goal | A sensible path |
|---|---|
| Travel and everyday life | Level test → work up to B1 |
| Working in English | Level test → B2 course → C1 for professional writing |
| University study | Level test → B2 → IELTS or TOEFL preparation |
| Improve an existing exam score | Level test → exam course, plus the C1 course for writing and vocabulary |
How to study so it sticks
- Little and often. Twenty minutes a day beats three hours on Sunday — memory works on repetition.
- Finish the exercises. Reading an explanation feels like learning; answering questions is what makes it stick.
- Review your mistakes before moving on. They’re the most useful information you get.
- Say things out loud. Read example sentences aloud and repeat listening scripts to train your mouth as well as your eyes.
- Add real English — a podcast on your commute, a news article, a TV series with English subtitles.
| A simple week | 20–30 minutes |
|---|---|
| Monday | One grammar lesson + vocabulary review |
| Tuesday | Reading practice + vocabulary review |
| Wednesday | Listening practice, repeating sentences aloud |
| Thursday | One lesson + a short writing task |
| Friday | Speaking and pronunciation practice |
| Weekend | Review the week’s mistakes; something in English you enjoy |
Signs you’re ready for the next level
- You score well on the practice exercises without checking the explanations first.
- Most new lessons feel like revision rather than new material.
- You can use the level’s grammar in your own sentences, not just recognise it in exercises.
- Retaking the level test puts you at the next level.
Moving up too early is the most common reason learners stall. If a new level feels overwhelming, drop back and finish the last few lessons of the one before — gaps are much easier to fill there.
