Phrasal verbs level A1

English courses for beginners (English level A1) do not cover phrasal verbs as a topic, since it is a prerequisite to understand less complex grammar concepts. However, verb lists studied during an A1 English course may include some phrasal verbs, especially those related to very common actions that can be used to give instructions in a class, such as: get up, sit down, turn on, and turn off.

The ABA English course includes grammar video lessons and the assistance of a private teacher, something especially useful for our beginners (A1) students who start their adventure of learning English from scratch.

Why it is essential to learn phrasal verbs at level A1

The English A1 syllabus, being designed for basic English level courses and even people starting from zero, has some special characteristics. On one hand, it presents to the student the basic vocabulary and grammatical structures, and on the other hand, it must convey concepts clearly so that the student achieves a solid foundation preparing them for higher levels. Phrasal verbs are not a priority at this level, although students will be in contact with some and will be able to create simple sentences with them.

Sentences with phrasal verbs level A1

Look at these examples of the phrasal verbs we mentioned: get up, sit down, turn on, and turn off.

Get up

Get up can be used to ask someone to stand up.

Please get up to read the text. (Stand up to read the text, please).

Sit down

Sit down means to sit and can be used to ask someone to take a seat.

Please sit down. (Sit down, please).

Turn on / turn off
