Who this is for
An English learner ready to build beyond a beginner foundation through guided study and everyday exchanges.
Before you begin
Check your current level and discuss an appropriate course with a teacher. Identify the listening and speaking situations you would like to handle more comfortably.
Your first session
Pick a guided route and try its first activity. Schedule practice around a real situation, such as arranging a meeting or discussing a familiar topic.
The path in four steps
- Check your current English level
- Choose a guided A2 learning path
- Practice listening and short conversations
- Assess your progress against A2 goals
Use these as editable milestones. The linked activity source supplies the detailed instructions; adjust your plan as you learn.
What finished looks like
Assess progress against A2 goals with appropriate feedback. Use what you find to adjust the plan; the listed study hours do not guarantee a particular assessment result.

Step 2: Choose a guided A2 learning path
DK English for Everyone: Course Book Level 2 Beginner
Use the Level 2 topics as optional support for the A2 learning path you choose with feedback.
Consider: Check that Level 2 matches your starting point. Buying or finishing the book is not proof of A2 proficiency; the practice book is a separate item.
Free or already owned: Use free A2 activities from a public learning provider or borrow an A2 course book from the library.
