Pre-intermediate

Hi

He teaches English to beginners and pre-intermediates.

--- Is it OK to say "pre-intermediates" or maybe "and to students at the pre-intermediate level"? I just wanted to keep it short. Emotion: smile
  

Top answer

The shorter version is OK. If you add "advanced" it becomes more awkward. In that case: He teaches English at the beginning, pre-intermediate, and advanced levels.
