Online English Course (Beginner to Elementary)

Learn English step by step with a structured online course built around the CEFR levels. Instead of random lessons, you follow a clear progress tree — each step unlocks the next — covering grammar, vocabulary and reading together.

The course is gamified to keep you going: daily streaks, XP and badges as you clear each unit. It starts with the certified exam, so you begin at exactly the right point. The lessons it takes you through are free to read and practise on their own.

The whole course, level by level. 90 grammar topics and 5,400 exercises, all free — and it stops at B2, because that is where the lessons stop.

Who this course is for

Complete beginners

If you have never studied English formally, or studied it years ago and remember almost nothing, the course starts from the verb be and builds from there. Nothing is assumed.

Self-taught learners who have plateaued

Many learners collect apps and videos but never follow a sequence, so gaps accumulate. A structured path fixes that by making each step depend on the one before it.

Learners preparing for work or study abroad

A1 and A2 cover the everyday language needed to arrive, settle and handle daily life. The certified exam places you before the path begins; you sit it first and pay $3 only at the end, to see your result.

Anyone returning after a long break

The certified exam means you do not have to guess. It puts you at your real level rather than making you restart from the beginning unnecessarily.

How the course works

Step 1 — Find your level

The certified exam establishes whether you should begin at A1 or A2, and finishing it opens the path. Studying above your level wastes weeks; studying below it wastes motivation.

Step 2 — Follow the progress tree

Each step unlocks the next, so you are never choosing what to study. Grammar, vocabulary and reading rotate through every unit rather than being separated into blocks.

Step 3 — Practise until it sticks

Every lesson ends with a scored check. You cannot advance by reading alone, which is what stops passive study from feeling like progress when it is not.

Step 4 — Prove it

Each level closes with an exam or a final project. When you want a shareable certificate, complete the certified exam and pay $3 to unlock the detailed result. One payment covers two graded attempts.

What the course covers, level by level

Both levels blend the three strands — grammar, vocabulary and reading — rather than teaching them in isolation, because that is how they are actually used.

Frequently asked questions

Is this English course really free?

The lessons are free: every grammar topic, drill, story and vocabulary list, with no account needed. The guided learning path, which takes you through them in order and tracks your progress, opens after you finish the certified exam. You sit the exam first and pay $3 only at the end, to see your result; that covers two graded attempts.

Where do I start?

You start with the certified exam. It finds your level, and the guided path begins there — A1 for beginners, A2 for elementary learners. If you only want a quick idea first, the free level test takes about 12 minutes.

Do I need to create an account?

An account lets the course save your progress, streak and XP across devices, so you can pick up exactly where you left off.

What levels are covered?

The course currently covers A1 (beginner) and A2 (elementary), with more levels being added. You can also study grammar and vocabulary separately at any level.
