Aligned with the official France Éducation International DALF C1 framework
Comment ça marche
Choose a free mock paper and practise listening, reading, and writing under exam conditions. Optional oral practice lets you record an exposé and spoken answers to on-screen examiner questions — self-study, not a live examiner.
Every response is evaluated using France Education International's grading grids: coherence, lexical range, morphosyntax, register, and argumentation. Scores follow the /25-per-section scale with the 5/25 eliminatory threshold.
Track averages across your last 6 attempts per section. Watch your pass readiness climb as weak spots improve — evidence-based preparation through repeated past-paper drilling.
Aperçu
Two AI-generated audio documents per paper — a ~6-minute long interview heard twice and short radio extracts heard once — with MCQ, true/false, and open-ended questions worth up to 25 points.
1,500–2,000 word texts at C1 register. Practice global thesis identification, implicit meaning analysis, and precise reformulation with accurate AI grading.
Synthèse (220–240 words, 12.5 pts) and essai argumenté (250+ words, 12.5 pts). Marked on 6 criteria: length compliance, objectivity, task realisation, coherence, lexique, and morphosyntaxe.
Record your 10-minute exposé and 20-minute discussion simulation. AI feedback maps to the 5-criterion oral grid: task (exposé), task (entretien), lexique, morphosyntaxe, and phonological mastery.
Ce qui est inclus
Curated listening papers with long and short documents. Question types: MCQ, true/false, and open-ended — matching the official exam protocol. Practice transcripts included alongside audio.
C1-register reading texts. Questions test global thesis identification, implicit meaning, argumentative structure analysis, and precise reformulation — scored to /25.
Synthèse and essai argumenté graded on official criteria: length, objectivity, task, coherence, lexique, morphosyntaxe, and sociolinguistic register.
Record an exposé and spoken answers to on-screen examiner questions. Transcription + AI marking against DALF oral criteria — self-study rehearsal, not a live examiner session.
Every submission is logged. Track section averages over your last 6 attempts and watch an evidence-based pass readiness rating climb as weak spots improve.
All papers follow the current DALF C1 structure — no domain specialisation. Pass threshold: 50/100 with a minimum 5/25 per section (eliminatory).
