How to read B2 Daily Life stories
At B2, read for nuance: idioms, tone, and less common vocabulary. After finishing, try summarizing the story in Spanish in two or three sentences — combining reading input with a little output at this level accelerates the jump toward fluency.
Read each story twice: once for the main idea without stopping, then again while tapping the highlighted vocabulary. Finish with the comprehension quiz — if you get most answers right, you are reading at the right level. When a story starts to feel easy, move up a level using the links above.
