DALF C1 preparation course

See our DALF C1 page for information on the exams (dates, registration, etc.).

1. Description:

The SUL organizes preparatory courses for the DALF C1 diploma, lasting 20 hours and spread over 1 or 2 weeks, depending on the session.

These courses generally take place in person, at our Aix-en-Provence site (program defined each year), shortly before the DALF C1 session.

Objectives:

  • Optimize preparation (methodological advice, mistakes to avoid, respecting assessment criteria to gain points, making a detailed plan to save time).
  • Know and understand the tests (detailed presentation of each test, understanding instructions).
    The DALF C1* tests are as follows:
    • Listening and reading comprehension tests (CO and CE): questions based on audio and written documents (test duration 90 min.).
    • Written production test (PE): document synthesis and argumentative essay (test duration 2h30).
    • Oral production test (PO): monologue and interaction exercise (test duration 30 min.).
  • practice (sample tests, practice for written and oral tests).
  • work in groups to complete individual training.
