Students who have
learned French before and would like to join a higher “degré” or level
need to take an entrance test. You should contact your nearest Alliance
Française. They will give you the test, a teacher will check it and help
you decide which level you should register.

Ans. |
The modules on the
Internet are complete in themselves and provide necessary comprehension
activities and grammatical exercises, i.e. they are self-sufficient. The
workshops provide conversation and extra pronunciation practice. Missing
out a workshop, therefore means that you can still learn the language, but
you will lack the conversation practice, and miss the opportunity of being
corrected by a teacher. Secondly, you can take the examination even if you
do not attend the workshop.

Ans. |
TEF is an exam that
establishes your level of French. It is better to appear for this exam
afterstudying well, as that insures a good placement. 5 degrés of
French Online are the minimum.
We usually recommend that students should study for a longer period
of time
before attempting the TEF.
