How to Find & Filter CEFR Content


Do you use the Common European Framework of Reference (CEFR) standards in your classroom? Our lessons will display a CEFR-equivalent level if you set this level preference in your account settings.


The CEFR equivalencies on Ellii are based on our in-house scale and are subject to change. This scale is also useful for teachers who recognize other levels or standardized tests.


Please follow the instructions below to display CEFR levels for all Ellii lessons.
