The SLE is the French proficiency test used by the Government of Canada to evaluate federal employees and candidates for bilingual positions. It's administered by the Public Service Commission (PSC) and tests three skills:
65 multiple-choice questions testing grammar, vocabulary, sentence structure, and proper French usage in a professional context.
60 multiple-choice questions testing your ability to understand French texts: memos, reports, emails, and workplace documents.
A live interview with an evaluator who assesses how well you communicate in French, from basic conversations to complex workplace topics.
Your results form a three-letter linguistic profile (e.g., BBB, CBC, CCB) that determines which bilingual positions you qualify for.
You have an upcoming SLE evaluation and need to achieve or maintain your language profile. You know your target level (BBB, CBC, etc.) and need focused preparation.
You're applying for a government job that requires French proficiency. You need to pass the SLE before or shortly after your appointment.
Your next career step requires a higher linguistic profile. You need to upgrade from A to B, or B to C, in one or more components.
You didn't achieve your target level last time and need targeted practice on the specific component(s) where you fell short.
We evaluate your current French proficiency and identify gaps relative to your target SLE level.
A custom plan focused on your weak areas, whether that's written expression, reading, oral, or all three.
We use official PSC resources, government-style texts, and mock evaluations so you know exactly what to expect.
By evaluation day, you've practiced every component in real conditions. No surprises.

Enjoyed my 6 month starting my French journey with Martha. Our teacher Martha is a gifted to share knowledge. However I think that groups are overcrowded and if you can keep a maximum of 6 students, it will be more effective. In my group were more then 11 people, therefore we did not have enough time fro everyone to participate.
Justine and Audrey have been excellent French instructors throughout my French journey so far. Patient, friendly and very informative, highly recommend Learn French Toronto for anyone wanting to learn French.
Justine is a wonderful and caring French teacher who makes our online classes enjoyable, engaging, and welcoming. I really appreciate her attention to each student and the time she takes to correct our videos and audio recordings, helping us learn from our mistakes and improve with confidence. She always encourages everyone to participate and makes sure we feel comfortable practising French, even when we make mistakes. I also love how she brings extra examples and introduces new vocabulary, helping us expand our knowledge and use French in everyday situations. Her patience, dedication, and enthusiasm make a real difference in our learning experience. Thank you, Justine, for making our online French classes so positive and motivating!
During Martha's teaching, I was able to learn better. The homework correction also helped. Her Google Drive organization, breakout rooms and lots more. Finally, I enjoyed her classes.
Learning French is a different kind of experience, and having Justine as our teacher makes it so much more enjoyable! She is kind, patient, and very approachable. She encourages us to participate, practice, and learn without being afraid of making mistakes. I truly appreciate her support, patience, and positive attitude. I’m happy to have her as my Level 1 French teacher!
Great french instructors especially Justine, she's confident, really straight forward, helped many outside class time. The instructor made learning french for me fun and simple.
