The Campus Langues programmes were designed according to the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages.

This framework alows to assess a level in a foreign language in every European country. 

Campus Langues offers 9 levels of French courses, following the Common European Framework defined by the CECR. We divided each level into 2 sub-levels that allows you to study in a homogenous group, tailored to your needs.

To move from a level to another depends on you, on your personal work and to what extent you use French on a daily basis. The length of the ability levels is variable.

Comment CAMPUS LANGUES évalue votre niveau de langue française ?


Vous souhaitez apprendre le français, en journée, en cours du soir, en stage intensif d’été, etc. ? Avant de vous inscrire à l’un de nos programmes, à Paris dans le 19e ou à Boulogne-Billancourt, nous devons connaître exactement votre niveau de langue française.
C’est pourquoi, nous vous proposons un test de langue en ligne. En quelques minutes et en 3 étapes, vous obtenez vos résultats. Voici comment se déroule le test :

  • Répondez à un questionnaire d’autoévaluation concernant votre maîtrise du français. Si vous êtes totalement débutant, vous êtes exempté de test.
  • En fonction de vos réponses à l’étape 1, on vous propose une série de questions sur la grammaire, le lexique et la compréhension écrite ainsi qu’un test d’expression écrite. Selon votre score, vous obtenez vos résultats ou vous poursuivez sur un questionnaire de niveau supérieur afin d’évaluer au plus juste votre niveau de langue française.
  • À la fin du test, vous entrez vos coordonnées, et CAMPUS LANGUES vous envoie instantanément vos résultats avec la correction. Ainsi, vous connaissez votre niveau de langue européen et les points que vous devrez travailler en priorité.
