Seuil ("threshold") is your daily companion for crossing into French fluency and passing the TEF and TCF exams. Instead of generic drills, Seuil builds a short, adaptive session around your goal and your weak spots, then gives you instant, specific feedback, the way a tutor would. WHAT YOU GET • Adaptive daily sessions: a focused mix of review, lessons, and practice sized to the minutes you have (5 to 60). • Four skills, exam-style: reading, listening, writing, and speaking, modeled on TEF/TCF tasks. • AI feedback that's actually useful: speak or write a response and get corrections, a CLB/CEFR estimate, and what to fix next. • A conversation tutor: practice real French dialogue at your level, hands-free. • Smart review: vocabulary comes back right before you'd forget it (spaced repetition). • Placement test: a quick adaptive check sets your starting level. • Progress that motivates: streaks, skill levels, and a clear path to your target. WHO IT'S FOR Newcomers and applicants preparing for Canadian immigration French requirements, students, and anyone serious about reaching B1–C1 / CLB 5–9. Start with one short lesson today. Feedback and estimated levels are for practice and are not official exam scores. Seuil is an independent study aid and is not affiliated with, authorized, endorsed by, or sponsored by the organizations that own the TEF or TCF exams. "TEF" and "TCF" are trademarks of their respective owners, used here only to describe what the app helps you prepare for.
