• A1 – Beginner: This is the starting point — you know a few greetings, numbers, and simple questions.

• B1 – Intermediate: B1 learners produce connected text on subjects they know and can describe experiences and explain views.
• B2 – Upper Intermediate: At B2, French becomes a tool for nuanced communication — you follow news, debates, and professional conversations.
