I've tried several times to see if I could make it with a B2 dictee, but I've found that when I go to one of them, there is no dictee --there is no "play" button to start the dictation. Has this been disabled because I'm not supposed to try at that level or is there something about the B2 level that I don't know/understand? Also, when I'm finished with the dictees and fill in the blanks things, I don't know how to get to a quiz section and I really need to practice more with them. Aidez-moi! Merci bien!
