The list of B2 Grammar structures you need before signing up for the C1 exam prep course:

Fluency in speaking does not necessarily indicate even an intermediate (B2) level of language knowledge!
Applicants must know and confidently use B2-level grammar structures in order to take part in the C1 preparation course.


If you have issues with basic B1-B2 grammar, please complete my GRAMMAR REHAB Hybrid Course before enrolling on the C1 exam prep course.

If you have issues with fluency, please join my VOCAB BOOSTER Speaking Circle first before enrolling on the C1 exam prep course.

You must be confident when (mostly) correctly using:

Verb Tenses (all)

Modal auxiliaries (all) /negation / their past tense(s) + past negation

Conditionals (first, second, third / mixed conditionals / zero conditional

Other conditional structures (I wish / would rather / had better / unless / providing etc.)

Gerund vs. Infinitive

Passive Voice (all tenses)

Reported speech

Articles / Quantifiers

Reduced clauses

Conjunctions/ Linking words / Linking devices (contrast/reason/goal etc.)

Yes, you even have to know these names / expressions... :-)

If you are still not sure which course to join,
