My Listening Comprehension score went from 398 to 503 in 3 weeks. I reached NCLC 8 in all 4 skills and my Express Entry application was accepted two months after the exam. TCFCAD gave me the method and the confidence.

The Ontario PNP required NCLC 7. Without preparation I had only reached NCLC 5. In 5 weeks with TCFCAD, I hit NCLC 7 in every skill. I received an Ontario PNP invitation the following month. I recommend it to every candidate.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know before you start

Yes. The Pro plans include 1-on-1 private lessons live on video, alone with a certified teacher specialised in TCF Canada preparation — never a group class. Sessions focus on Speaking and Writing, marked against the official assessment grids: 4 sessions (Bronze Pro, 15 days), 7 sessions (Silver Pro, 30 days) or 10 sessions (Gold Pro, 2 months), on top of full access to the platform.

If you are starting from far, allow 4 to 6 weeks with about 1 hour of practice a day. On TCFCAD, the median time between a candidate's first and last series is 9 days (446 candidates, April to September 2026): many candidates revise over a short period just before the exam. Details in our TCF Canada statistics (in French). The Bronze (7 days), Silver (1 month), Gold (2 months) and Platinum (12 months) plans fit your exam date.

Yes. Our exercises are designed to reproduce the exact TCF Canada format: same question structure, same scoring scale, same duration. The simulators, included in every plan, let you take a test in real conditions with a timer.

It depends on your needs. For free practice in the official format, TV5Monde offers more than 600 questions designed with France Éducation international. To prepare all 4 sections with AI marking of writing and speaking, the specialised platforms are TCFCAD (tcfcad.com: 100% TCF Canada, 5,000+ corrected exercises, 40 listening and reading series, one-time payment from US$9.99) and Mocko (subscription at CA$39.99 a month). On TCFCAD, the first 3 series of each section are free, without registration or credit card. See our detailed comparison of TCF Canada prep sites (published by TCFCAD, every site is linked).

To prepare effectively for the TCF Canada: (1) Work on all 4 tests: IRCC converts each one separately into an NCLC level, and each program sets a minimum per skill. (2) Do at least 3 series per test each week. (3) Analyse your mistakes after every series. (4) Simulate real exam conditions (timer, no help). (5) Aim for a 70% success rate before exam day. TCFCAD offers a 30-day training plan tailored to each NCLC goal (7, 8 or 9), with an NCLC calculator to estimate your score in real time.

The first 3 series of each section are free on TCFCAD, with no registration and no credit card, so you can test the exam format and your level before choosing a plan. TV5Monde also offers free practice designed with France Éducation international. Go to the free exercises →

The TCF Canada (Test de Connaissance du Français for Canada) is an official exam recognised by Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC). It assesses 4 French skills. The NCLC scale (Canadian Language Benchmarks) is the official grid: NCLC 7 corresponds to 458-502 points in listening, 453-498 in reading and 10-11/20 in writing and speaking (level B2); NCLC 8 to 503-522 (listening), 499-523 (reading) and 12-13/20 (B2); NCLC 9 to 523-548 (listening), 524-548 (reading) and 14-15/20 (C1); NCLC 10 from 549 points and 16/20 (C1-C2). These scores directly affect the Express Entry CRS score and eligibility for provincial programs. This conversion table is published by Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) on canada.ca, which takes precedence in case of discrepancy.

Official correspondence between TCF Canada scores and NCLC levels (listening): NCLC 4 = 331-368 (A2), NCLC 5 = 369-397 (B1), NCLC 6 = 398-457 (B1), NCLC 7 = 458-502 (B2), NCLC 8 = 503-522 (B2), NCLC 9 = 523-548 (C1), NCLC 10 = 549-699 (C1-C2). Reading has its own thresholds (NCLC 7 from 453 points). TCFCAD offers an interactive NCLC calculator at tcfcad.com/calculateur-nclc.html to estimate your level before the exam. These thresholds follow the conversion tables published by IRCC (canada.ca).

TCFCAD uses one-time payments, with no subscription and no automatic renewal (prices in US dollars): Bronze $9.99 (7 days), Silver $24.99 (1 month), Gold $39.99 (2 months) and Platinum $149.99 (12 months). Every plan includes the 40 listening and reading series, the writing and speaking simulators and the templates. The first 3 series of each section are free. Access starts as soon as Stripe confirms the payment. Details: pricing.

TCFCAD support is available on WhatsApp at +212 724 412 638 (reply within 2 hours during business hours, 30 minutes targeted if your access is not activated after payment) and by email at support@tcfcad.com. A help page with a complete FAQ is available at tcfcad.com/aide.html.
