The ACTFL Proficiency Guidelines are descriptions of what individuals can do with language in terms
of speaking, writing, listening, and reading in real-world situations in a spontaneous and non-rehearsed
context. For each skill, these guidelines identify five major levels of proficiency: Distinguished, Superior,
Advanced, Intermediate, and Novice. The major levels Advanced, Intermediate, and Novice are subdivided
into High, Mid, and Low sublevels. The levels of the ACTFL Guidelines describe the continuum of
proficiency from that of the highly articulate, well-educated language user to a level of little or no
functional ability.

Language learning is complex. Many factors impact how well language learners will acquire communication skills and how quickly they will reach different ranges of performance. These factors include where one learns language, whether in an instructional setting or immersed in the language or culture; how one learns, whether through explicit instruction about the language or through authentic experiences using the language; when one learns, as the age and cognitive
development of language learners impact the speed of reaching each range of performance; and finally, why one is learning a language, whether motivated by extrinsic factors such as grades and requirements or intrinsic factors such as the language learner’s heritage or intended uses of the language.
