π What Are the DELF and DALF Junior Exams?
The DELF (DiplΓ΄me d'Γtudes en Langue FranΓ§aise) and DALF (DiplΓ΄me Approfondi de Langue FranΓ§aise) Junior are official French language diplomas tailored for school-aged learners (12β17 years old).
These exams assess a studentβs ability to use French in real-life situations β in speaking, listening, reading, and writing β and are aligned with the CEFR (Common European Framework of Reference for Languages). The Junior versions include age-appropriate topics and contexts, making the experience more engaging and relevant for teens.

My son has been studying French at your school for over 7 months, and I am absolutely thrilled with his progress! Each lesson is engaging and enriching β from practicing conversation to listening exercises. He happily shares new words and phrases, and I can see his French level improving with each lesson. I saw you in an advertisement, looked at the teachers, and your school inspired a lot of trust, and I didn't make a mistake in choosing you. I am grateful for your professionalism and support. We are very pleased with our choice and glad we found you!
