TCF Canada Exam

A high score in the TCF Canada exam can significantly boost your CRS points under the Canadian Express Entry system. This course is designed for individuals who want to strengthen their French skills and achieve a higher NCLC score (between 5 and 9), which is recognized for Canadian immigration purposes.

About the Course

Getting a high score on the TCF exam requires dedication, consistent practice, and the most important aspect – the right guidance. La Forêt’s TCF preparation course is designed for learners aiming to boost their NCLC score (5–8) and maximise their chances of success in immigration, citizenship, or academic opportunities in Canada or Québec.

At La Forêt French Class, we provide a structured and supportive approach to help you excel:

  • Live Interactive Classes – 1-hour sessions from Monday to Friday. Each level (A1, A2, B1 & B2) is covered in 8–10 weeks.
  • Progress Evaluation – Tests are conducted at the end of each level by senior faculty to track your growth.
  • 8-Month Learning Plan – You can go from beginner to advanced in about 8 months, followed by 1 month of intensive TCF exam preparation with full-length mock tests.
  • Personalised Support – One-on-one mentorship, doubt-solving sessions, and guidance tailored to your learning style will help you progress upward!
  • Dual-Faculty Model – A main faculty for teaching + an assisting faculty for extra support through individual doubt-clearing sessions can prove wonders to your scores.
  • Recordings for Missed Classes – Missed a class due to a family function? Worry not, you can request class recordings anytime via Google Classroom.
  • Google Classroom Access – You’ll also have 24/7 availability of notes, videos, practice papers, and study resources.

Every learner is unique, and so are their learning needs. You can choose self-paced online learning through the PrepMyFuture e-learning platform if you prefer independent study, or opt for La Forêt’s TCF preparation program for structured support and mentorship.

Frequently Asked Questions

What levels does the TCF cover?

The TCF evaluates your French ability across all six CEFR levels (A1 to C2):

  • A1–A2: Beginner/elementary, where you can handle basic everyday communication.

  • B1–B2: Intermediate/independent, where you can manage more complex discussions and written texts.

  • C1–C2: Advanced/proficient, showing the ability to understand and express yourself fluently in almost all contexts.

What is the difference between TCF, TCF Canada, and TCF Québec?

  • TCF (Test de Connaissance du Français): A general French language proficiency test designed for non-native speakers. It’s often used for academic purposes, job applications, or personal assessment.

  • TCF Canada: A version of the test adapted for Canadian immigration applications. It is recognized by IRCC (Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada) and evaluates listening, reading, speaking, and writing.

  • TCF Québec: Specifically required by the Ministère de l’Immigration, de la Francisation et de l’Intégration (MIFI) for immigration to Québec. It focuses more on oral and written skills relevant to the Québec immigration process.

What skills are tested in the TCF?

The core test usually covers:

  • Listening comprehension – understanding spoken French in different situations.

  • Reading comprehension – interpreting texts such as articles, ads, or instructions.

  • Language structures – grammar and vocabulary knowledge tested through multiple-choice questions.

In addition, depending on the purpose of the test, candidates may also take optional modules:

  • Speaking – face-to-face tasks with an examiner to assess fluency and accuracy.

  • Writing – written exercises ranging from short notes to structured essays.
