DELF - DALF
Diplôme d'études en langue française / Diplôme approfondi de langue française
The DELF / DALF exams consist of 6 independent diplomas, each corresponding to one of the 6 levels of the Common European Framework of Reference. Each diploma can be obtained independently of each other, in the same country or in a different country. These exams are French language proficiency tests for non-native speakers of French who wish to have their proficiency level certified for professional, academic or personal reasons.
The DELF / DALF certificates are recognized anywhere in the world. They are to the French language what the Cambridge Certificate proficiency tests are to English.
The results do not expire with time.
Please consider the time period necessary to receive the certificate (around 3 weeks) if you want to apply to a school or for immigration purposes.
A $12 shipping fee will be added to the cost of the test. Once received in our premises, we will mail your certificate to the address you
provide on your registration form.
WHAT IS THE STRUCTURE OF THE EXAMINATION?
Each DELF/DALF exam evaluates the following four language skills: oral comprehension, reading comprehension, writing production, and oral production.
See the table below for general information about total test length and typical start times (subject to change). While the
end times will vary based on the number of people in the exam session, typically all speaking exams are completed by 3:30 on the day

WHAT OUR MEMBERS ARE SAYING
I'd like to start this off by thanking you for teaching me so much French. You were a great teacher and you helped me learn so many new things. I'd also like to apologize for missing a lot of lessons, although I'm sure that I would've rather gone to them. Again, you are the best teacher I've ever had, and it's sad to say goodbye to you.

Alliance Française de Denver created a wonderful virtual environment where I spent my Summer vacation; visiting the winemaking area of Bouzy; celebrating Bastille Day; learning how to cook with flowers; touring historic châteaux and beautiful villages; all in the safety and comfort of my home.
A real treat for any Francophone person; especially having a daily place for French chat to try out and maintain colloquial skills.

Anne is fantastic! The material is fast paced for this "old dog" to learn new tricks, but we could not go slower. It has been very helpful to prepare me for my trip to France.
Sue T.
A great place to learn and practice French while getting acquainted with French culture and interesting people. I definitely recommend AFD and their events. Je parle français! Et vous?
