Abstract

As we know, the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR) is a framework
used to measure language proficiency. This applies to languages learned as a foreign language.
Instruments defined by the Council of Europe played a decisive role in so-called "non-native" language
learning. The significance of learning a language lies in four main skills—listening, speaking, reading,
and writing—through which learners achieve results. Priority is given to communicative competence,
which involves the ability to use the language for communication, fostering interaction. This method
of active learning, through hands-on approaches and opportunities for experimentation, leads to new
accomplishments in learning unfamiliar languages quickly and easily. Identifying linguistic needs
precisely helps pinpoint specific knowledge necessary for effective communication in a particular
field, meaning knowledge required for navigating the sea of communication in that domain.
