The CLB 6 French course
A structured, free path for intermediate French practice toward NCLC 6 and the TCF / TEF Canada exams accepted by IRCC. Federal public-service jobs use a separate Second Language Evaluation system.
A course, not a pile of flashcards
Most free resources hand you disconnected drills. This course is ordered: an 8-phase path with seven knowledge checks that unlock progression and a full-duration final practice simulation. You always know the single next step.
The 8-phase path
- Foundations — sounds, core vocabulary, present-tense grammar.
- Everyday French — routines, time, places, basic past tense.
- Connected speech — connectors, opinions, narration.
- Real-life scenarios — landlord calls, bank accounts, appointments.
- Listening mastery — native-speed comprehension at ramping speeds.
- Speaking & writing tasks — original practice based on TCF Canada task formats.
- Exam grammar — the four CLB 6 traps under timed pressure.
- Final readiness — a full-duration TCF-format simulation with raw practice evidence per skill, not an official band estimate.
Calibrated to CLB 6 — no wasted effort
The course prioritizes practical French and the structures used in TCF Canada practice. Canadian French neural audio supports listening and shadowing; authentic media and human conversation remain essential.
