Explicit enough. The video I’ve been searching for on the internet. 🎉🎉❤❤

[@French-Arena]

Merci!

[@manushitrivedi9535]

Hi! You provided great information on the whole topic. I had cleared B1 level back in my home country, can you please guide me on how to elevate my level for TEF. Thanks!!

[@French-Arena]

I'm glad you found the information helpful! Since you've already cleared B1 in French, that's a great starting point! To elevate your level for the TEF, I recommend focusing on the following: Speaking & Writing: These areas are key for the TEF exam. I suggest working on expanding your vocabulary, improving sentence structure, and practicing speaking on various topics. Writing practice (essays, short answers) is also crucial for improving your overall score. Mock Exams: Take practice exams to familiarize yourself with the TEF format and time constraints. This will also help you identify areas for improvement. Targeting the B2 Level: If your goal is to reach a B2 or higher, working with a tutor or using structured materials can help you refine your skills and fill in any gaps.

Do I need WES and ielt for this program?

[@French-Arena]

Yes.

[@edithlangelihlephuthi539]

Thank you for the video. Just to clarify, the CLB is for when French is your first language. The required mark is lower if French is a second language?

[@French-Arena]

Bonjour. I’m not quite clear on your question. You need a CLB7 minimum across all 4 competencies in your TEF/TCF exam.

[@TheHadeelLife]

I'm wondering if you found the answer to this? Does second language french requirement is less?

[@natalihuancahuariaguilar6886]

Hi! Thank you for your video, am I selected in French category express entry if I choose English as the first language and French as the second language? please consider that I got CLB 7 in French and CLB 10 in English, that’s why I prefer to consider English as my first language. Thank you!

Thank you so much for the update ma... please, I need a guide on how to register for the French test. Am currently working as French teacher in Nigeria with schools and am very much interested in this opportunity. Merci beaucoup🎉

[@French-Arena]

Bonjour. I have no idea.

[@oyindamolasamuel5139]

Very explanatory, thanks

You’re most welcome. I’m happy you found it useful. 😊

How can I access the explicit table for the various Nclc’s?

[@French-Arena]

You can check the IRCC website.

[@homeboymediatv3729]

Can one easily get picked from the pool for pnp with basic French skills?? That is to say if one writes the French exam but doesn’t get the Nclc 7 but lesser. Are chances high they can still get notifications of interest from provinces who need bilingual candidates?

[@French-Arena]

Bonjour. I am not an immigration consultant, so I can't answer this question effectively. However, with IRCC, anything is possible.

[@homeboymediatv3729]

@@French-Arena okay thank you.

[@theresaowusu-sasu2256]

The TCF or TEF is there one which is specific for Canada or it is a general test

[@French-Arena]

Bonjour. You can take either the TEF (Test d'évaluation du français) or TCF (Test de connaissance du français) examination. These exams are recognised as official proof of language proficiency by Citizenship and Immigration Canada.

[@yumi1264]

Thank you for this ! To be admissible for the French language proficiency category do I need to do an English test as well or is the French test enough to be admissible ?

[@French-Arena]

Please speak with an immigration consultant for the latest information or check IRCC’s website. Merci.

[@marajanetiama3390]

Thank you for this very informative video! Quick question - do I have to come from a francophone country to be eligible? Or as long as I can ace my TEF then I can be eligible too regardless of the country I came from? I’m from Asia.

[@French-Arena]

As long as you ace your TEF/TCF, you're eligible. I'm from Nigeria and I'm in Canada now because I passed it. But you can also check IRCC's website if there are some countries that are exempted.

[@marajanetiama3390]

@ thank you Arena. This is very helpful. Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us. You inspire me.
