Hi everyone,

You never even pass, you don dey collect money… smfh

Yes, I can't do it free of charge. In my B2+ speaking workshop class, I was basically teaching and explaining things to the other students most of the time (and also factor it in that I am self-taught). My speaking skills (as well as my other skills) have massively improved since last year October 31 (2022) when I wrote the exams in Cotonou.

If you need a free French tutor, I am not your guy.

Why is this funny?
But you just have to appreciate his honesty. Imagine how much better life would be in general if everyone put their honest foot first.

Hello it's Monsieur Tayo again, concerning the writing and speaking tests of the TEF Canada exam, I have three books that would help you a lot with your preparation, they are:

TEF CANADA EXPRESSION ÉCRITE: 150 TOPICS TO SUCCEED by Jean K. Mathieu
TEF CANADA EXPRESSION ORALE: 150 TOPICS TO SUCCEED by Jean K. Mathieu
And a bonus 3rd book

Send an email to me (tayomassive@gmail) with subject title: "The three books for TEF speaking and writing tests" and I will send them to you.

Do You Need a French Speaking Partner Who is Conversant with the TEF Exam?

Then, I am your guy! Hello, my name is Tayo and officially I started learning French (on my own) on 1st October 2019, but I did not get serious till around April/May 2020. Before I took the TEF exam on 31st October 2022 (in Cotonou), I was self-taught (I took just 15 hours of speaking lessons with a French tutor) and I did relatively well except in the speaking where I scored 430 points. I need at least 450 points in all the tests to get the additional 50 points for French as a second language.

This year, I attended a French speaking class for B2+ in February (all lessons totalled 42 hours) and I have taken speaking lessons with two French tutors (a combined total of 65 hours), practising and drilling on the speaking test of TEF.

I intend to take the exam this month or next month. If you need a speaking partner or someone to correct your essays (both the journalistic article and the formal letter) and also rewrite your essays using your own ideas, I am always available.

I charge a token fee for these services, so kindly call me on these numbers: [08039194272 - Whatsapp] or [07056193484].

PS: I have attached my TEF results to this message.

In my humble opinion, that "slowness" is needed at the beginning if you just "recently" started.
Before even thinking about TEF/TCF, you MUST first learn french, that means getting used to forming the sounds, hearing it and basically living it as much as you can.
You need to reach a CEFR B1/B2 for that.
But still if you feel your tutor is slow, you can try IEF or the Alliance Française accelerated program.

Bonsoir tout le monde, C'est moi Monsieur Tayo encore.

I intended creating 4 YouTube playlists that would include videos on past and practice questions on the 4 TEF tests (reading, listening, speaking and writing). The videos were uploaded by different YouTubers but I would just assemble them in 4 playlists to make things easier for everyone. I came back home late, so I will not be doing it today, hopefully tomorrow I will post the playlists' links here.

Thank you

Pls is TEF currently back in Nigeria?

Bonsoir tout le monde, concerning the YouTube playlists, I attached an image to this message which contains the 4 playlists. Nairaland spambot may just ban my account if I put weblinks in the message.

Concerning the videos in the playlists, I did my best to only put the unique videos, a lot of TEF videos on YouTube are duplicates of others. Whenever I spot any unique video, I will add them to its appropriate playlist.

If you want that I send you the links directly, send me a mail ( tayomassive@gmail.com ) or a simple Whatsapp message ( 0803 919 4272 )

Au revoir et à demain!

I think have a document containing ONLY the long texts for the reading test (it is around 30 - 32 pages). I will check my PC in the evening, if you are interested in that, let me know and I will get back to you.

UPDATE: Send me an email (tayomassive@gmail.com) or a WhatsApp message (08039194272) if you are interested in getting it. The PDF has some typos, I simply converted the Word file to a PDF.

I only asked about your experience writing the exam in Benin republic. I don’t think it’s too much to ask and It wouldn’t really have costed you anything to respond. I was very civil and respectful in my approach. Well, I wish you the best Monsieur Tayo.

Kindly indicate, if you wrote your TEF in Benin Republic. I have few questions to pose. Thanks and God bless you.
