40 lessons · 3h each

Move beyond basics to work-ready precision. A3 sharpens spontaneous speech, logical structure, and professional tact:
express conditions and concessions, handle indirect speech and double-object pronouns, and craft recommendations that land.

Level B readiness in real federal contexts.
Target: solid A2 / approaching B
Oral-first (70–80% speaking)
