FRENCH PROFICIENCY — DETOUR (TEF instead of DELF)
<p>Originally, when I had set out on this journey in January 2023, I thought I’d keep learning French, building my vocabulary, getting used to the fast pace of natural French speech, learning how to write, read, the whole shebang. My end goal at that time was to attain C1 proficiency by September 2023 (yes, I thought it’d be fun to have an overly ambitious goal). To do this, I thought I’d research how it can be done using the experience of those who’ve already done it. No need to reinvent the wheel, right? I found a few ways that I thought would really help me solidify my understanding of French and get to the promised land of native-like proficiency. Turns out, the media you use or the ways in which you study don’t really matter if you are not consistent in when you study. Yikes, tough pill to swallow.</p>
