Frequently asked questions 🤔 ❓

The length of a language test preparation course depends mainly on the test you wish to take and your initial level. As a general rule, we recommend that you plan between 4 and 12 weeks of language courses to prepare effectively. This period allows you to cover all the skills required for the test, while leaving enough time to practice and reinforce what you've learned. If you would like to be guided in your choice, or to obtain personalized advice, please do not hesitate to contact us to discuss your specific needs.

To place you in a class adapted to your level, we ask you to take a language test before the course begins. This test assesses your current skills and enables us to place you in a group corresponding to your level. In this way, you can make confident, gradual progress, surrounded by peers with similar skills.

To follow a specific exam preparation program, you need to have a minimum language level. If your initial level does not meet these requirements, we recommend that you first follow a general course to strengthen your linguistic foundations before moving on to specific exam preparation.

If you have any questions or require assistance in assessing your language level, please do not hesitate to contact us for personalized advice.
