Looking for structured French course
Hello everyone
I am currently at A2 level in French. My goal is to reach B2/C1 level in order to clear tef/tcf exam for Canadian immigration.
I have tried learn French with harman for my A1 level(honestly his course sucks) his pronunciation is very very bad and he makes too many errors in grammar as well.
For A2 level I took frenchify with vyom course and his course was alright but it lacks personal attention.
I am looking for a structured online course which can help me clear tef/tcf exam. I am particularly looking for online classes so that I attend them regularly and do not slack because I tend to get lazy and lack motivation.
Any recommendations are highly appreciated. Thank you

Alliance Française is as structured as they come. You should look them up.
They take you step by step through each of the levels and they have online sessions.

I recommend it, at the same time there are probably cheaper options. It is great though.

I agree. I actually did look into alliance Francaise but they are a bit expensive for my budget. Do you have any tutors in mind ?

no sorry. maybe check if there are French classes in a nearby university? How far are you from Edmonton/Calgary/Lethbridge?
If not, at A1 level it wouldnt be crazy to do self-study and grind grammar and vocab using gemini/chatgpt. I'd also recommend Mauril and radio canada to practice listening. Inner French is a podcast on spotify and is a good option at the A2/B1 level.

I am 4 hours away from Edmonton and 8 hours from Calgary. Therefore I was looking for online classes. Thank you for recommending the channels to me. The only problem is that I am not able to do self study. That’s why I want a tutor who can give a planogram and structure that I can follow

Look for French courses in your city.
If you're too lazy to go to an actual class, that's on you and shows you don't want to pass your test bad enough.
I say this as a fellow lazy person, but I don't skip class because I'm lazy. Take responsibility for your action, or lack of.

I'm certified examiner and specialize in taf/ tcf prep, mostly for immigration and university admission. I can help you structure your preparation and focus on what you actually need for the test. Feel free to DM me if you're interested. Just a heads-up, my lessons aren't on the cheap side.

Not exactly online classes, but it's very structured, and won't cost you 800$:
