(Since A2 learners still require reinforcement of fundamental struc-


tures, the early lessons (1-40) focus on consolidating basic grammar
and vocabulary while progressively introducing more functional lan-
guage for everyday and work-related conversations. The later lessons
(41-84) introduce more complex skills while maintaining A2-level accessibil-
ity.)
