Understanding DELF & DALF: French Language Certification Levels

The DELF (Diplôme d’Études en Langue Française) and DALF (Diplôme Approfondi de Langue Française) are official certifications issued by the French Ministry of National Education. These diplomas are recognized worldwide and validate your proficiency in French as a foreign language. DELF/DALF exams are divided into six levels:

  • A1/A2 – Elementary level
  • B1/B2 – Independent user level
  • C1/C2 – Advanced level

Each exam level assesses four key skills: listening comprehension, oral production, reading comprehension, and writing production.
The DELF B2 level marks a significant milestone in your language learning, representing the ability to communicate effectively and independently in French.
Achieving success at DELF B2 also forms the essential foundation for advancing to DELF B2/B1 and even DALF C1 preparation in the future.

Why Take the DELF B2 Exam?

Choosing to take the DELF B2 exam brings numerous benefits:

  • Recognition of Proficiency: DELF B2 is an internationally recognized diploma that demonstrates a high level of French language proficiency.
  • Academic and Professional Opportunities: Universities, companies, and institutions worldwide recognize DELF B2 as proof of your French skills, opening doors to study or career opportunities.
  • Study or Work in Francophone Countries: If you plan to study or work in a French-speaking country, DELF B2 can be a key requirement for university admission or professional positions.
  • Residency and Naturalisation Requirements: Some countries require proof of French proficiency, and DELF B2 may be necessary for visa, residency, or citizenship processes.
  • Personal Achievement and Confidence: Passing the DELF B2 exam is a personal milestone that boosts confidence in speaking, reading, and writing French.
  • Cultural Engagement: DELF B2 proficiency enables a deeper understanding and enjoyment of French literature, films, music, and cultural content.
  • Structured Learning Goal: Preparing for DELF B2 sets a clear goal for your French studies and keeps you motivated.
  • Preparation for Higher Levels: Success at DELF B2 is the natural pathway to B2/B1 improvement and prepares you for more advanced DALF levels.

  • Official DELF B2 exams

What You Will Learn in DELF B2 Preparation Course

  • Vocabulary for Real-Life and Exam Situations:
    You will develop vocabulary related to social and professional life, housing, studies, work, health, public services, daily challenges, and expressing opinions on current topics and societal issues.
    You will also learn idiomatic expressions essential for the DELF B2 monologue suivi, allowing you to speak more naturally, convincingly, and confidently during the oral exam.
  • Grammar Mastery:
    You will consolidate advanced grammar for DELF B2, including subjonctif for opinions and obligations, conditionnel and si clauses for hypotheses, complex relative pronouns (dont, lequel, ce à quoi), correct use of tenses (passé composé, imparfait, futur), logical connectors, and pronouns.
    These structures are essential for clear, accurate, and persuasive written and spoken French at B2.
  • Listening and Reading Skills:
    You will train to understand spoken and written French at natural B2 speed, identify main ideas and supporting details, recognize numbers, dates, and instructions, and handle unfamiliar words confidently.
    This practice prepares you for both DELF B2 exam tasks and real-life situations, improving comprehension in discussions, news, articles, and instructions.
  • Speaking and Writing Practice:
    You will practice formal and informal dialogues, expressing preferences, debates, and presentations based on DELF B2 speaking topics.
    You will also work on written correspondence such as emails and learn how to write an argumentative essay.
    This training ensures you can communicate clearly and confidently in both spoken and written French for the DELF B2 exam and real-life situations.

Our DELF B2 preparation courses ensure balanced progress in all exam skills — listening, reading, writing, and speaking — while giving you the solid language foundation required for higher DELF levels.

Success Stories from Our DELF B2 Students

“ Achieving a pass grade on the DELF B2 examination was a prerequisite for my doctoral program. Having spent half a decade studying French in a North American high school, I was confident that self-study would suffice. However, the reality was more challenging than anticipated, and I found myself floundering on my first attempt with a disappointing score in the 40s. That's when I enlisted the help of Laure. With her in-depth expertise and professional demeanor, she swiftly discerned my weak points and devised an astute, targeted plan to help me overcome them. Her assignments were also well curated to improve my skills and rigorous enough to have me studying 7 hours a week to keep up. Although I hesitated initially at the cost, her lessons showed me that it was well worth it. In just eleven sessions, Laure remarkably helped me boost my score by approximately 30 points, culminating in a pass mark of 71.5 at my second attempt. My primary obstacle was my speaking ability, a skill I hadn't had the chance to hone in years. I also struggled with key grammatical structures vital for the exam. Laure didn't merely teach me how to succeed in the DELF exam, but she also substantially elevated my overall French language proficiency. Should I dare to take on the DELF C1 exam, I would unquestionably reach out to Laure without a second thought. For anyone endeavoring to excel in a French language examination or aspiring to enhance their French speaking abilities, Laure can definitely help."

Yuri Han, PhD student
(DELF B2) Seoul, South Korea

" Laure has been an absolutely incredible teacher, and I’ve passed my B2 with 92%! That is a fantastic improvement on my mark in the B1, done prior to our lessons. I get a huge amount of practice in all areas in the lesson, and we did plenty of mock exams of all types. After the session I promptly receive a list of vocab I couldn’t remember or didn’t know, words I mispronounced and really good homework focused on issues that came up in the lesson or things I have asked to work on. I’m continuing with lessons even after the exam, which really speaks volumes about how much I enjoy them, and I’m so delighted to now be able to tackle novels I previously had to give up on. I’ve really seen a huge improvement in my French, and crucially also in my confidence with the language. With plenty of encouragement and a huge amount of skill, Laure has helped me exceed my expectations! "

Katherine Rybacki, Researcher

" I have had lessons with Laure for a year. One year ago I was at A1/A2 level, despite lessons and an A at GCSE level. My initial aim was to obtain the B2 DELF in order to work with French speakers, here in Switzerland. From the start Laure was able to recognise the errors I commonly made and would write these down so that I could learn them, she would then test me in the following lesson. She positively encouraged me to speak, write, read and listen throughout this time. Laure would check my written work in between lessons and was always happy to help. She even bought the B2 DELF practice exam book that i was using, so that she could help me. have been to University and had Post graduate teaching in medical studies. I can truly say that Laure is one of the kindest, most dedicated, thoughtful, professional and effective teachers that i know. She is methodical and offers structure to her lessons. She possesses the characteristics and qualities of a great teacher. I do not use this term lightly, I have had several other teachers but she stands out from the crowd. I worked hard and passed the B2 in November 2017, thanks to Laure. Since then Laure has continued to help me to gain confidence in my profession. She has shown herself to be adept at learning medical terminology as well as using different teaching styles to help me. Thank you Laure, you have helped me so much to realise my dreams. Last year, I was successful in a interview in French. In 2018 I start work in a 100% french environment. I believe that Laure can help anyone to learn French to a high level and boost your confidence at the same time. If you are motivated, she will help you. If you are discouraged she will help you find your courage. "

Dr Steve P
(DELF B2) Lausanne, Switzerland

" I was looking for last-minute help to score a B2 on the DELF French exam for University. I had only about a month or two before my exam and Laure was able to help me attain the B2 score. Her teaching skills were fantastic and I really noticed great improvement after every session. If you are interested in learning French, especially for any French exams, Laure is the professor for you. She not only helped me pass my exam but also helped me improve my French proficiency. I was looking to just pass the DELF exam but Laure made sure I received a good score. I scored an 81/100 and a perfect score in French which wouldn’t have been possible without her tutoring. Overall, Laure is a great teacher and I couldn't have received my B2 score without her. "

Chloé Gratson, Sophomore
(DELF B2) McGill University - Montreal

“ Our 14-year-old son, Calder, had good French language ability, but didn’t know where to find support or how to prepare for the DELF B2. He was lost. Only seven weeks before the exam, we contacted Laure for help. She quickly conducted an analysis and delivered an honest assessment of his strengths and weaknesses. She believed, if he really applied himself, he would “most-likely” pass the exam. Therefore, she developed a specific and targeted plan to get him to pass. And over the seven weeks he worked hard on both his online tutoring with Laure and the offline lessons she prepared for him. The plan worked! He passed the B2. He absolutely would not have passed without her. That is not hyperbole. Calder would be the first to tell you that. Laure is a very talented and experienced professional; it shows in her work and abilities. We are ever grateful – and lucky -  that we found her. We could not recommend her more. “
