Ace the TEF Exam with Expert Preparation

It depends on your goal. For example, TEF Canada usually requires a minimum of CLB 7, equivalent to B2 on the CEFR scale.

Results are typically available within 4-6 weeks after the exam.

Yes! You can retake the TEF, but you must wait at least 30 days between attempts.

It really depends on your starting level and your goals. Here’s a general guide:

• Basic Level (A1-A2): 3-6 months of regular practice.
• Intermediate Level (B1-B2): 6-12 months with focused preparation.
• Advanced Level (C1-C2): 1-2 years of consistent effort.

If you’re aiming for specific benchmarks, like CLB 7 (B2) for immigration, we recommend 2-3 months of targeted preparation if you’re already at B2.

To pass the TEF, simply knowing the language isn’t enough. You’ll need to focus on the strategy, understand what earns points, and ensure you’re fully prepared for the exam’s demands. That’s where our targeted lessons come in—to turn your knowledge into a winning score!

Unfortunately, no. We don’t administer the exam; we specialize in preparing you to ace it! You’ll need to take the TEF at an officially certified testing center.

But here’s the good news: we’ll make sure you walk into that test center feeling 100% ready. From mock exams to insider tips, we’ll guide you every step of the way.

Our lessons are all about you. Here’s how they work:

• Personalized plans: We start with a diagnostic session to assess your level and goals.

• Focus on all exam sections: We’ll make sure to cover every part of the TEF you’ll be taking—speaking, writing, listening, reading, and grammar—so you’re fully prepared for the exam. At the same time, we’ll dedicate extra time to addressing your weak spots to ensure balanced and confident performance across the board.

• Practical exercises: You’ll practice with real TEF-style questions and scenarios.
• Mock exams: Simulate the real thing to get comfortable with timing and pressure.
• Expert tips: Our tutors have taken the TEF themselves, so you’ll get insights that make a real difference.

Oh, and don’t worry—our lessons are friendly, supportive, and (dare we say?) even fun.

First, don’t panic. The TEF can be retaken as many times as you want, but you’ll need to wait at least 30 days between attempts.

Here’s the thing: if you attend all your lessons and follow our teachers’ recommendations, 99% of our students successfully pass the TEF on their first try. With our guidance, it’s not just about trying again—it’s about succeeding. We’re here to make sure you achieve the score you need!

Not necessarily—they’re just different. DELF/DALF focuses on mastering a specific level, while TEF tests a wider range of skills in one go. The TEF can feel more challenging if you’re aiming for a high level (like B2 or C1), but it’s also more flexible since you don’t have to “declare” your level in advance.

Oh, we’ve got plenty! Here are just a few:

• Practice listening: Watch French movies, podcasts, or news to train your ear.
• Speak daily: Even if you’re just talking to yourself, get those words flowing!
• Focus on vocabulary: You don’t need to know every word, but build a solid foundation.
• Simulate the exam: Timed practice tests are your best friend.

And of course, working with a tutor who knows the ins and outs of the TEF can save you tons of time and stress.

You can absolutely self-study, but having a tutor can make a huge difference, especially if:

• You’re aiming for a high score (e.g., CLB 7 or higher).
• You struggle with certain skills, like speaking or writing.
• You’re short on time and need a focused, efficient approach.

Our tutors combine personalized guidance with expert strategies to maximize your results.
