in brief: In this video, the speaker discusses the C1 advanced level of English, which is the ultimate goal for many English learners. The speaker explains that C1 is about fluency with a deep understanding of the nuances of the English language, including phrases that native speakers naturally use and understanding subtle jokes. The video focuses on the grammar needed to achieve the C1 level, which is less about learning entirely new grammatical structures and more about learning grammatical nuances and fine-tuning one's repertoire of phrases. Key grammatical concepts covered in the video include: - Tenses: Advanced uses of past, present, and future tenses. - Modals: Advanced structures for speculation and deduction. - Conditionals: Advanced usage of words and phrases to replace "if." - Passive Voice: Using passive infinitive and passive ING forms. - Negative Inversion: Adding emphasis and variation to writing and speaking. - Hedging and Boosting: Softening or increasing the force of statements. - Phrasal Verbs: Understanding their various meanings depending on the context. - Conjunctions and Connectors: Mastering coordinating, correlative, and subordinating conjunctions and connectors to form complex and varied sentence structures. The speaker has also created a free ebook that details everything covered in the video, as well as additional grammar, vocabulary, and skills needed for the C1 level. The ebook is available for download through a link in the video description.

[@michaeleckhardt409]

I did your online test and it said my level is presumably C2 which seems to be overly optimistic to me. I just spend to days with my lovely British friend in Berlin and I felt more I’m on a B2 level as I’m not used to speak English as often as I would like to do. Searching both for grammar and vocabulary. So I guess it would be a perfect idea to join your C1 course even if your fantastic tenses challenge was sometimes quite demanding, at least for me. Btw I utterly love the way you’re teaching English with such a great level joy for your language and plenty of emphasis. 👍🇬🇧🇩🇪

Congratulations on your fantastic score! That test is just intended to be a guide, but you clearly have a great grasp of the language! I’m so glad you enjoy my lessons :) It’s great to have you on board! I am very excited to launch the C1 course - it’s the best yet!!!

I just thought I’d offer some helpful criticism to what you’ve written. I’m a native English speaker. (The first sentence is spot on!) “I just *spent two days in Berlin* with my lovely British friend and I felt more *that* I’m on a B2 level, as I’m not used to *speaking* English as often as *I would like to*. (One could also say, “…as often as I’d like.”) *I’m* searching *for both* grammar and vocabulary. So, I guess it would be a perfect idea to join your C1 course, even if your fantastic tenses challenge was sometimes quite demanding, at least for me. Btw, I utterly love the way *you* teach English with such a great level *of* joy for your language and plenty of emphasis *on [fill in the blank - could be pronunciation, vocabulary, the basics, etc.]*.”

[@HxTurtle]

@@user-no2mz9hl4f excellent! spotted some of those easy fix-mistakes myself and contemplated about posting them. not only did you save me from typing a bunch, but noticed about twice as many issues. German is my first language as well. and I also lack the ability to occasionally apply some English instead of only consuming it passively. regarding the very last word-emphasis: I'm fairly certain, op meant to say or express enthusiasm. feel free to correct me too, lol 😅 I estimate my level to be around B1; probably on the verge of B2. learners, though, should keep in mind that it's not a given for all so called native speakers to pass every single test with flying colors. the grasp as well as error rate can be rather dramatic even among this linguistic subset, I'd been noticing 😅

[@user-no2mz9hl4f]

@@HxTurtle Yes, this is true! Many native English speakers have a poor grasp of the language. Many use improper grammar, have a poor vocabulary - some even mispronounce words (and I’m not talking about variations in dialect)! My grammar instruction was limited in my school days, but thanks to my grandfather and other adults in my life, I learnt how to speak properly on an instinctual level, even if I don’t always know what all the grammar terms mean.

Such a thorough overview. I've got ielts 8.0, which technically is a full on C1, but i feel like a lower C1 after watching this. It's not unknown, yet unused.

[@saracristinasarao9950]

I failed my C1. I got really upset, to be honest I got a bit depressed. I spent months preparing myself with courses and private classes. Also studying by myself, doing my best to reach something that I really wanted to. I was confident that I could score at least 180 but sadly my score was 178. When I got the results I was 100% sure that something was wrong. I asked and paid for my exam be reviewed twice. They said that nothing was wrong. I showed my results to my teacher and based on all our hard work and mock tests, etc, he said that it would be impossible to have got ALL 56 questions in the Reading part wrong. My speaking test, Listening, Use of English was above 185 marks, how could I have answered 56 questions wrong in the Reading part? 😮 I am sorry but for me it is a bit hard to believe, honestly. From that moment I gave up studying. I know, it is not a paper that will define who I am. I'm trying to rebuild my confidence. I believe that everything has a purpose even when we fail because God knows everything!

Many thanks, Lucy, for your pleasant, educative and reasonably challenging content and this concise video ❤ I adore your pronunciation! I've passed the Cambridge Certificate of Proficiency in English exam (C2) at the end of my A-Levels (more than 10 years ago) and have been using English in my work and private life ever since. However, I feel that the variety of my active vocabulary, idioms and expressions can be improved and has actually decreased over the years (due to lack of serious practice with native/more advanced English speakers). If you don't live in an English-speaking country and have little encounter with native speakers in different contexts (such as culture, politics, science), you quickly lose practice. Therefore, I'm considering to take active action to work on my command of English, including the pronunciation. I wonder if the C1 course is not too easy for me, but I do believe that I could learn something new or at least refresh my language skills. My goal is to improve my everyday language and make it more versatile and sophisticated.

[@HxTurtle]

rest assured, if your spoken English is only about half as good as your written form, you easily outperform the majority of all native speakers-especially considering the States being an English speaking country as well (lol.) but I hardly read anything as error free as your text-including native speakers. touching up one's skills is always a good idea, but I can also see how this is somewhat of a challenging task to improve yours even further. cheers!

[@witchsoro9178]

What an English ! I've never taken a proficiency exam, and I wonder what level would I get if I apply for a test. I really feel you, especially where you say it is difficult to practice or continue in touch with the language in a non English-speaking country. Furthermore, if you don't cheer yourself up, you barely improve it.

Oh gosh I wish I were as fluent as yourself, dearest Lucy! I wish I lived in the UK to the level that I genuinely surround my whole life and daily routine with lovely British English and follow a plethora of British podcasts so as to think like a Brit and ultimately speak like one. Never could I be more thankful to Brexit for not allowing me to live in your Dreamland, where I previously had the chance to almost plant some roots though...At least for a year and 4 months, which has allowed me to become more than fluent and perfectly understand a variety of accents and use a wide range of phrasal verbs and idioms. Since I'm teaching English like a second language I only speak to a1 or a2 people. Hardly ever do I address to people on a higher level, besides myself and my partner. God forbid I forget how to express myself in the BBE 💕 as a result of that I'll be on my way of saving for your advanced and proficient courses, as I want to become more than able to teach to university students one day, besides my lovely children and teenagers (and to elderly ones at times). Listening to you and Ana speak at 6 am, as I'm an early bird, really is my whimsical cup of tea!!!!
