7:03 For people preparing to goto Mumbai AF e-TEF, i talked with them yesterday and they are planning to move to Writing part on computer using standard Indian qwerty keyboard from Oct-2020 onwards. Brush-up on your accented typing!
I doubt that. Unless you have got Mac OS, it is really difficult to type. May be they will have buttons on the screen to help you with accents.Otherwise it is impossible to type the accents using a windows keboard (in English orientation).
@@BBarters he informed me that they will mark the keyboard or something. Also they are waiting for furthur instructions from AF on the matter, so if that's the case then it will change e-TEF over all centers. I would recommand test takers to once confirm with the center.
@@BBarters on different note, there is US-international keyboard layout which allows to type french accented letters using key combination on both Windows and linux (Ubuntu) with standard QWERTY keyboard. I am using it since past 4 months without any issue.
@@sw_dev_chirag Combination is difficult, I use MacOS - if you press the E (or any alphabet key) for more than 3 seconds, it brings all the accept options 1,2,3,4 ...and you can press the number to select the accent which will be then applied to the alphabet. Tough to get used to something else :)
Salut Kaustubh.. you have such lovely videos which assist in getting basics right.. Thanks for these :) I don't see the link to A2 Edito in the description. Would you be able to put in that? Merci!!
This video is such an eye opener . I appreciate such an honest video. I too hv exhausted my options for cannada immigration.And French is the only hope .With initial lessons on french preparation the road doesn't seem easy at all. Keeping in mind the pandemic conditions where a house wife is a cook laudry cum house keeping plus teacher for a five year old the no of hours that i can devote in a day is not more dan 2 in a day . so with such a time frame will i be able to complete the french course in 9 months ? is there a hope ?
Salut Kaustab, For the eTEF, the speaking part is conducted by the examiner or is it computer based (like in PTE, we speak and it gets recorded and marked by the system)?
When I gave it (e-TEF) in Jan-2020, it was in person - also the writing test was using pen and paper. But due to COVID they might have changed it recently, a couple of students are appearing this month, so we will soon know.
Thanks for tips , now only way for me to study french and move to canda..i also thought of studing there but its also looking so terious.. kindly help me with your contacts...may be can get some tips ...as many consultant are not so genuine...
Sir you said B2+ is required. But for express entry Canada where CR score is from 1000 points, there if we achieve CLB 7 thatis B1, a person gets some 20 points I guess. Can you please elaborate thi query
Hi, thanks for all the information on TEF Can u share the name of the 2 books for grammar and for exam practise. Also I would like to subscribe to your online classes. Could you please share more details like fees etc.
Sorry Anshul we don't have specific programs based on CRS points needed. We do recommend to take our TEF Canada Prep Online Tutorials Program for this requirement of yours. Please visit www.bebarters.com/programs for more info.
@@BBarters I visit the page m I'm very much interested in joining it m what would be the timming for the classes and how soon I can join ..as I am working so I have to plan things accordingly
Hello Kaustub. I am new to this language and your channel and obviously the exam pattern. You mentioned about e-tef. I believe its online exam basically computer based. Is this true that due to covid the exam is by default e tef and its a good thing for new students.? Kindly through some light on this. Thanku.
Listening test is easier with headsets so e-TEF is better in general and now due to Covid it seems to be the norm. I gave e-TEF in pre-covid era to boost my Listening score.
Hi.... Can you pls tell me where to book a TEF Canada exam in India like what's the process and all....? What are the requirements to write and how to check dates of exam and all pls help me out... 🙏
Hi sir I have cleared my delf b2 last year but i passed it on just points. Now, i am pursuing c1 from alliance française. How much time i would need to clear tef and get 42 points addition in my crs score?
Difficult to give an exact answer without knowing the parameters used for identifying the level as DELF exam is different. However, B1 to B2+ is the toughest journey. So generally speaking, 3-4 months of consistent effort shall get you there.
I truly inspired from your experience of conquering TEF in 6-7 months. Thanks for showing us that is certainly possible! Respect 🙌
My pleasure! Hope the info helps.

@@BBarters I've learned upto A2 DELF, I use a US-International Keyboard language setting, and that is ideal for folks used to the QWERTY layout.
Are you in Canada yet?
Can I achieve the B1 level just by going through your TEF Canada series and all the books that you have recommended?
That is definitely possible.
@@BBarters thanks alot!

Why 42 points? Aren't they 50?
Bonjour, c'est correct - maintenant on peut gagner 62 points pour obtenir CLB 7. This video was created before they started giving extra benefit.
