TEF: Expression Orale

Posted by Josh on 10th Mar 2025 in the blog in the tef category

The Expression Orale part of the TEF exam assesses your ability to speak French. It is 15 minutes long and is divided into two parts.

Part A is five minutes long. You will be given a document and are expected to explain the contents of the document, gathering more information by asking the examiner questions about it.

Part B is ten minutes long and will take the form of a role-play in which you must try to convince the examiner to come to join you in performing a certain activity.

The Expression Orale part of LFWA TEF Exam Preparation Course provides extensive revision materials for each of the two parts. In addition to guides with comprehensive tips, you will find dozens of exercises to help prepare you for each aspect of the speaking test.

As part of our TEF Exam Preparation Course, you will also have the opportunity to book two Speaking Practice Sessions (60 minutes each), and receive expert feedback from one of our TEF specialists.
