PLACEMENT

Find a useful starting point

If you are a complete beginner, start at A1.1 without taking the test. If you have studied French before, complete the free placement test for a recommended starting level.

You do not need the test

You have never studied French, or only recognise a few words. Start at A1.1. It assumes nothing.

You should take the test

You have studied French at school, on an app, or with a tutor, even years ago. Take the test for a recommended starting level.

Your result is a recommendation, not a restriction. You may view all available classes and choose the level you believe suits you. Your tutor and coordinator can advise you after classes begin if a different level would support your progress better.
