Free TCF Canada test: discover your level and practice
Are you preparing for the TCF Canada? Before embarking on full preparation, start by freely assessing your French level. Our free tests help you situate your level, identify your weak points and familiarize yourself with the exam format.
In a few minutes, you get a first clear diagnosis of your reading and listening comprehension. This allows you to know whether you're around NCLC 5–6, 7 or higher, and then adapt your preparation (self-study, courses, support). The goal is not to 'grade' you, but to give you a concrete starting point.
