• form longer sentences while maintaining the target language syntax,
• be understood even by native speakers unused to dealing with foreigners,
• handle increasingly difficult grammatical structures,
• enjoy fluent conversations with a variety of strangers,
• have a near-native accent, and the subtleties of the language will be apparent in your speech,
• read at the same level at which you speak.
