Hi, everyone there
What is the best word to say " improve one's communication level"? Can we say " boost one's level, enhance one's level or uplift one's level"? Thank you

improve his communication skills
raise the level of his communication skills
are neutral and appropriate for business. Boost is making too much of it, too pompous.

As a matter of fact, what I want to know is what is the appropriate words to use with "level" to express "make one's level higher"? Thank you.

raise his level
elevate his level
See verbs that go with level in these examples from the New York Times:
367 from nytimes.com for "to * the level of his"
