Exam preparation
TEF Canada Preparation
TEF Canada is the French-proficiency exam many Canadian immigration pathways reference for CLB-equivalent French scoring, and its content leans heavily on the settlement, housing and employment vocabulary those pathways actually care about. This six-week course is built around that real context rather than generic French exam preparation. The listening module moves from clear to natural-speed French matching the TEF Canada format. The reading module works with notices, correspondence and short articles at the register the exam actually uses, alongside vocabulary specific to the settlement and work topics that recur on this exam. The writing module focuses on a repeatable structure for the writing tasks and the specific grammar traps — agreement, tense and register errors — that cost the most marks at A2 through B2. The speaking module practices the interactive question-and-answer exchange format the exam uses. The course closes with a full timed speaking mock, reviewed against the exam's actual assessment criteria.
