FAQ: How do I know if this course will suit me?

This course has been designed to ensure that participants make progress within the CEFR A2.1 Proficiency Level in French.

The Common European Framework of Reference (CEFR) is a global standard for describing language proficiency.

A1 and A2 are considered to be a Basic Level, approximately equivalent to the Irish Junior Cert.

Students at this level can handle routine and simple tasks, but they have limitations in complex conversations.
