The CILS B2 exam

How we prepare you for the CILS B2 exam sections

Our preparation combines language development with specific exam practice. We work on each skill separately and then bring them together through targeted exercises and simulations.

Listening

Strategies for identifying key information, details and meaning in spoken Italian.

02

Reading

Global and detailed comprehension of B2-level texts and effective time-management strategies.

03

Language structures

Grammar, vocabulary and language use through targeted CILS-style exercises.

04

Writing

Written tasks with corrections and work on structure, register, coherence and accuracy.

05

Speaking

Conversation, argumentation and simulations to help you approach the oral test with confidence.

Do you only need to work on one exam section?

If you do not need the full course, you can focus specifically on the skills you need to improve.

Our method

How we prepare you step by step

Preparation is not just about completing practice tests. We help you identify your weaknesses, improve your Italian and learn how to approach each part of the CILS B2 exam.

1

Start from your level

We identify the language areas that need improvement and your main difficulties.

2

Understand the format

Learn how to interpret instructions and recognise the different task types.

3

Practise

Work on individual skills through targeted B2-level activities.

4

Analyse your mistakes

Corrections help you understand what went wrong and how to improve.

5

Simulate the exam

Exam-style practice helps you become familiar with tasks and time management.

CILS B2 Writing

Good writing is about more than avoiding grammar mistakes

We work on the entire writing process, from understanding the task to reviewing and improving your final text.

Task → Writing → Correction → Analysis

CILS B2 writing preparation

In the writing section, you need to organise your ideas, follow the task correctly, use an appropriate register and produce a clear, coherent text.

During the course you complete written tasks and receive corrections. We analyse your mistakes so that you understand what needs to change and can progressively improve your writing.

  • text organisation and structure
  • cohesion and linking words
  • grammar and language accuracy
  • vocabulary and register
  • following the task correctly

CILS B2 speaking preparation

Even students who use Italian every day can feel less confident when they have to speak in an exam situation.

That is why our lessons include conversation practice and simulations designed to help you express your ideas more clearly, accurately and naturally.

  • expressing and supporting an opinion
  • organising your ideas
  • expanding B2-level vocabulary
  • improving fluency and accuracy
  • practising exam-style speaking tasks
CILS B2 Speaking

Turn your knowledge of Italian into confident communication

Conversation, argumentation and exam simulations help you communicate more effectively under exam conditions.
