Hey there, I'm Tanu, welcome to my RU-vid channel. In 2023, I embarked on an incredible journey to Canada after successfully scoring 68 additional CRS (Comprehensive Ranking System) points through the TEF Canada French language test. This journey wasn't without its challenges, but through unwavering dedication, intensive study, and sheer determination, I finally achieved a remarkable C1 level proficiency in just 13 months. Join me as I share my experiences, insights, and adventures in Canada. Stay tuned for the content that will inspire, entertain, and inform. Thank you for joining me on this extraordinary journey!

Thanks for sharing your tips. I agree with you except for the part regarding the questions. The instruction is usually "posez une dizaine de questions". You will find that if you don't ask about 10 questions, you will not get enough information to score high. So I advise students to try to ask as many questions but also to listen to the responses because examiners always give vague answers to force you to ask more questions. That is the game. When candidates do not ask enough questions, they usually speak slowly, lack fluency and have A2 or B1 level. So ask your questions and time yourself. How many questions can you ask in 5 minutes????
5 classes a week on italki for months, then 2 classes a week later on, then writing classes with a tutor...all this would add up to a considerable expense, no?
Is possible to do the biometrics after I receive the passport submission request or should I do it asap? The office is 600km away and I would need to go back there for passport visa stamp
Yes, some of my friends did that. In most cases they wouldn’t ask for the ITA coz PCC is done for many other purposes. Please know that for immigration they need latest PCC (issued in last 90 days I think), so apply for it if you’re sure that the ITA is on the way
Hi Tanu, I really appreciate your genuine work and guidance. I watch all the videos of yours for information and tips. and I also share these videos with my friends as well. genuinely, you are amazing!!! keep going.......
Very helpful ❤❤❤ But ,i have a big question do we have to master all 18 tenses of French for writing part ?? If not then what are the most important tenses which i should master like a pro to be more precise with my writing.( i am preparing for tef and i am always sick of tenses.)
The discussion part was really invaluable. Rare gem! 💥 Do you believe it is possible to get C1 (NCLC 8) even without knowing or using "subjonctifs"? You should continue making more videos on this topics
Usage of subjunctive could boost the score as it shows a deeper understanding of grammar and ability to use more complex sentence structure. If practiced, it is relatively easier to leverage it in section B
