I want to appear in TEF from India. Where can i locate information on french test in india?
Dear Sonia,
Consult the TEF official website
The TEF is officially recognized by the French Ministry of Education for access to French universities. The candidates must take the compulsory papers and the optional written expression paper at the same time and must obtain a minimum level of five on the written expression paper (equivalent to C1 according to the Common European Framework).
Structure of exam
Three compulsory tests:
•Reading comprehension (60 minutes)
•Listening comprehension (40 minutes)
•Language structures and vocabulary (30 minutes)
Total length: two hours 30 minutes
Two optional tests:
•Writing (60 minutes)
•Speaking (35 minutes)
The TEF is also recognized by the Citoyenneté et Immigration Canada (CIC), part of the Canadian Federal Government, as the only French language test evaluating the French language skills of a candidate wishing to immigrate to Canada.
Period of validity
TEF results are valid for one year.

I am confused about the total points of french test. If i give IELTS and obtain 10 points, how many points can i get through french test for canadian immigration
How many maximum points can i get through french test if i am taking ielts also
Dear Khalid,
You may obtain 9 extra points if you are taking french test also
I want to know TEF has 4 sections , if after the result any student wants to improve the score of a particular section , can he/she do that by giving that particular exam only or he/she will have to give all the 4 sections again.
How do I go about preparing for this exam?

We can get you at the A2 (level 2) proficiency level in 60-80h of french tuition, and B1 (level 3) in 80-100h. We use an accelerated learning approach - you need to know English well for this to be possible.
