Lifetime-valid French diplomas from the French Ministry of Education — prepared level by level with past-paper practice.
DELF and DALF are the official French diplomas awarded by France's Ministry of Education. Unlike TEF and TCF, they never expire, which makes them the right choice for students applying to French-language universities, teachers building a credential, and learners who want a permanent record of their level. We prepare candidates from A1 through C2.
Each level is taught against its own exam grid. You practise compréhension orale and écrite with real past papers, and every production écrite is returned with corrections mapped to the marking criteria. Production orale is rehearsed with your tutor, including the exposé and the interaction phase, so the format is familiar long before test day.
School and university students who need a recognised diploma, professionals adding a formal credential, francophile learners marking their progress, and parents enrolling children in the junior DELF versions. Because the diploma never expires, many students climb one level at a time over several years.
DELF and DALF are lifetime diplomas issued by the French Ministry of Education and are level-specific. TEF and TCF are tests that produce a score valid for a limited period and are the ones commonly used for Canadian immigration.
Your tutor runs a placement assessment in the first session and recommends the level you can realistically pass, usually the one just above your current comfortable range.
Yes. DALF preparation focuses on synthesis of multiple documents, structured exposé and register control, with extended writing corrected in full.
Moving up one CEFR level typically takes three to six months of consistent weekly classes plus independent study, though this varies with your starting point and study time.
