Jhanavi Parikh began learning French in December 2024 at the A1 level as a complete beginner, with a clear goal of clearing the TCF exam. The journey was demanding and required strong discipline and consistency. With attention spans getting shorter today, staying regular with studies was one of the biggest challenges. However, with professional guidance from La forêt and constant motivation from the mentors, she stayed committed despite the rising difficulty at each level.

She progressed steadily and achieved DELF B2 within seven months. Consistent reading and writing practice, along with ARTE listening exercises recommended by her trainer, helped strengthen her language skills significantly. Through focused preparation and multiple mock tests, she built both confidence and fluency, and within 11 months, reached an overall C1 level in TCF. This achievement enhanced both her immigration profile and her career growth in Supply Chain Management. Patience, structured preparation, and the right mentorship played a key role in her success.
