A Brief Introduction to the TCF
TCF stands for the Test de connaissance du français, and it is an exam that evaluates a non-native French speaker’s French language capacities. There are over 600 official test centres in more than 140 nations, including France, around the globe. Scores and levels on the TCF correspond to the levels in the Common European Framework of Reference for languages (CEFR).

You need to know where you are before you can get to where you are going.
Many schools treat evaluation as something that needs to be done, but they don’t really know why. A lot of teachers and tutors don’t even like to do evaluation since they feel it isn’t fun or inhibits learning. Research shows differently. Successful learning begins with metrics that provide a clear picture of your strengths, weaknesses and level.
Just sign up free of charge and take our 20 minute assessment of your written and spoken French. This will let you know where your French language skills are at the moment, based on the CEFR scale:
- A1: Beginner level
- A2: Elementary level
- B1: Intermediate level
- B2: Upper intermediate level
- C1: Advanced level
- C2: Proficiency level
Once you know what your French abilities are, you can then start preparing for the TCF effectively and efficiently without wasting time and money by wandering around and studying things either too far below or too far above your level.
Starting with quality, accurate evaluation will lead to a better outcome on the TCF for you.
