Graded English reading: read, listen, and chat

Choose a level where you can follow the main idea while meeting a few new expressions. Read or listen, retell the content in your own words, then ask the AI a question or share your opinion.

How to choose a reading level

At A1–A2, focus on people and actions. At B1–B2, add reasons, opinions, and examples. At C1–C2, explore tone and implied meaning. These levels help you choose practice material; they are not a formal proficiency assessment.

A1 English reading

Start with simple sentences. Identify the people, places, and actions, then explain what happened in short sentences.

A2 English reading

Practice everyday language, follow the sequence of events, and describe experiences with simple reasons.

B1 English reading

Build connected speech on familiar topics. Notice the choices characters make, and support your opinions with examples.

B2 English reading

Discuss more complex ideas. Compare interpretations and practice inference, argument, and qualified opinions.

C1 English reading

Explore tone, implied meaning, and language choices in complex texts, and organize a more precise discussion.

C2 English reading

Analyze nuances, narrative choices, rhetorical effects, and multiple readings. Practice adapting your style to different audiences.

A daily practice routine

Focus on the main idea on your first pass, then check unfamiliar expressions. Close the text, retell it in two or three sentences, and ask the AI to follow up on a detail. Choose one expression to use in your next conversation.
