From Beginner French to Exam Readiness
A structured pathway from complete beginner foundations to practical communication and TCF-style exam preparation.
Your 7-Month French Learning Path
This 7-month intensive French course is designed for learners who want to build French from the foundation level and progress toward practical communication and exam preparation. The curriculum is divided into three phases — foundational grammar and pronunciation, applied language and practical communication, and final exam-focused practice — with development across speaking, writing, listening, and reading.
A1 Foundation
A2 Communication
B1 Readiness

The curriculum broadly follows a progression from A1 toward A2 and B1-level readiness. Completing the program does not automatically grant an A1, A2, B1, TEF, or TCF certification or result.
