Language tests
Unless you're a complete beginner (level 1), you'll need to take a self-assessment test to get into the right level. Find your language and click on the level you wish to test.
Test your language skills with Kahoot!
With the exception of absolute beginners, who will select level 1, it is compulsory to complete a self-assessment test in the language of your choice for levels 2 and above.
This test will help you determine the level that corresponds to your skills and integrate the group that best suits you for real progress.
Easy to use (your first and last name and an email address are all you need), you can take it at a time that suits you, from wherever you like.
We strongly recommend that you indicate the first and last name used for your registration and not a pseudonym so that our teams can easily find your test.
Carefully select the language and level you wish to assess, and make sure you have enough time (30 to 45 minutes) to complete the test and validate it*.
At the end of the test, make a note of your score, as you will be asked to validate your registration.
*Good to know: any test started is recorded. If a participant leaves the page before completing the test, he/she will not be able to retake it, nor start it again with the same e-mail address and "name".
