As a growing academy focused on the French language for TEF / TCF preparation, we’re committed to delivering a focused, results-driven learning experience.
Acon Academy is a dedicated French language institute based in Surrey, BC, focused on helping individuals meet their immigration, academic, or professional language goals. Our programs are built around real-world outcomes, with a specific emphasis on the Canadian Language Benchmarks (CLB) and the TEF exam.We currently offer three types of classes:
- A CLB 5 course designed for beginners and early intermediate learners, especially those looking to qualify for Francophone work permits or extensions.
- A CLB 7 course for students aiming for higher scores required for permanent residency or competitive applications.
- A one-day class, ideal for anyone unsure about where to start or looking to get a sense of our teaching approach before committing to a full course.
Classes are structured, efficient, and paced to fit the lives of adult learners. Our instructors focus on building clarity, consistency, and test-ready skills from day one. Whether you’re starting from scratch or brushing up for an exam, Acon Academy offers a supportive path forward in your French language journey.
Our programs are built from the ground up to help students succeed in TEF and TCF exams, with targeted preparation for those aiming to reach CLB 5 and CLB 7. Every lesson is focused on exam-relevant skills—reading, listening, writing, and speaking—structured to match what you’ll actually face on test day. From diagnostic assessments to timed mock exams, we give you the tools and confidence to approach your test with clarity and purpose.
We understand that many of our students are balancing work, studies, or family responsibilities, which is why we’ve designed our classes to fit around your life. With options for weekday evenings, weekend sessions, and focused one-day intensives, you can choose the format that works best for you. Our batch system also ensures that if your first preference isn’t available, you’ll still have access to a backup slot without losing momentum in your learning.
Our teaching team includes instructors who specialize in the TEF and TCF exams and have years of experience helping students achieve their target CLB levels. They train you to understand the specific logic of these exams. Through consistent feedback, personalized support, and real exam insights, our instructors make sure you're not just learning the language, but mastering how to use it under pressure.
Our classes are intentionally kept small so that every student has space to engage, ask questions, and receive meaningful attention. Smaller groups allow instructors to focus on individual progress and create an environment where no one is left behind or overlooked. You’ll have more speaking time, faster responses to questions, and a setting that encourages focus, participation, and measurable growth week by week.
We provide detailed, feedback on your speaking and writing tasks, aligned with CLB scoring standards. You’ll know exactly where you’re falling short—whether in vocabulary, structure, or clarity—and how to fix it with clear, practical guidance. No generic feedback it’s tied directly to the mistakes you make and the areas you need to improve to hit your required band.
Practice work isn’t one-size-fits-all. Based on your performance and feedback, we assign exercises that directly target your weak points. This ensures your time is spent effectively, building the skills that will actually raise your score. If you’re struggling with listening, you’ll get focused drills, if writing is your issue, we’ll break down structure, syntax, and time management.
Throughout the course, instructors schedule individual check-ins to track your progress and make adjustments as needed. These sessions are your chance to ask specific questions, clarify doubts, and make sure you're always moving toward your goal. They also help identify any blind spots or inconsistent areas in your preparation that might go unnoticed in group settings.
