B1 assumes that you can put the verb at the right time without errors, understand the speech addressed to you without hidden subtext, and respond in detail using speech enhancers: metaphors, comparisons, epithets, idioms.
The full use of auxiliary and modal verbs ( Auxiliary and Modal Verbs ), the correct substitution of articles, prepositions and particles make speech clear and pleasant to the ear. Thus, when learning new parts of speech, try to make several sentences with them. The ideal option would be to use the past, present and future tense - such exercises pump several important areas of learning at once.
To train Writing at an average level, you can write a resume, job application, biography, fill out questionnaires, write essays on free topics, fill in information “About yourself” in the profiles of various online sites.
To improve Reading, you can enter a query in English in Google and read all the articles you like. In addition, it is worth downloading or buying a few fiction books of your favorite genre and instilling in yourself a useful habit of reading instead of looking at your phone in any free minute. Even a couple of pages a day is already a result.
Listening can be pumped while watching video clips without subtitles. You can start with clips or videos for beginners, and then increase the complexity and move on to news, reviews and interviews.
Speaking shows noticeable improvement when talking regularly with native speakers or those who know English perfectly. Intermediate students not to adopt incorrect pronunciation or mistakes, therefore, in the absence of a native speaker, it is better to listen and repeat after the English-speaking presenters or announcers.
