Birmingham CLEP French Tutoring FAQ
After years of studying French in high school, the opportunity to earn college credit for the knowledge one has gained before ever setting foot on a college campus can be extremely appealing. The French Language CLEP Exam provides just such an opportunity at many colleges and universities nationwide. This exam will provide you with the opportunity to fulfill up to two years of French study through successfully completing a single exam, but only if you prepare well for the demands of test day. No matter what your major will be in college, such credit can help ease your transition into collegiate studies. Many students do not plan to focus on foreign language studies in college, but many (if not most) programs require a set of core curriculum courses that include foreign language requirements. Get your French in order with a CLEP French Language tutor with the skills and experience to help you succeed.
Why needlessly repeat the work that you have done in a high school French class if you can use the CLEP exam to earn credits now, allowing you to focus on your particular major's courses? On the other hand, if you are planning to major in French, why would you wish to waste time reviewing topics you already understand, when you could be pressing onward to more advanced studies in French grammar and literature? No matter the educational trajectory that you aim to pursue in college, the CLEP exam offers an excellent opportunity to begin your college studies from an advanced position. In preparing for test day, you will need an able guide to help you review the many concepts that you have learned throughout your years of study. Varsity Tutors can help connect you with a CLEP French Language tutor who can assist you in preparing for this exam in an organized manner that's focused on your particular academic needs. Your tutor can meet at a time and location of your choosing, or face-to-face online.
The CLEP exam will test you on aural as well as reading proficiency. Regarding the first, CLEP French Language tutoring can help you bolster your listening and conversational skills so that you can meet the requirements of the examination board. Do not let a small misunderstanding lead to missed opportunities to earn points! Exercises targeting your weaker areas of knowledge can help you prepare your listening and speaking skills to be tested. The benefit of being able to practice your French conversational skills with a fluent instructor cannot be understated. In addition, throughout your French studies, you have learned a plethora of grammatical concepts, covering verbal grammar and idiomatic usages, which will be key parts of the examination. These concepts must be reviewed if you are to succeed on the questions that test your comprehension of these linguistic skills.
In addition, such review is necessary so you will have enough time to adequately answer the questions concerning the reading comprehension passages. Succeeding in these will require a great deal more time, and the combined application of the French skills that you have gained to this point. Likewise, a personal tutor can help you avoid the dreaded case of forgotten vocabulary by helping you to target your weakest areas of retention long before any test-day mishaps.
Among all subjects, the study of language is perhaps most ideally undertaken in collaboration with a partner who can directly interact with you. Such interaction enhances your utilization and retention of the concepts being studied. Your personal tutor can be your guide as you prepare for the CLEP French exam. Rather than wading alone through the many concepts you have learned in your years of language study, contact Varsity Tutors today for help connecting with a CLEP French Language tutor for your test preparation!

Recent Birmingham CLEP French Tutoring Session Notes
The student did well in our session today. Her math and writing scores have improved by 60 points each between her two sittings of the test, so she should be confident. I think her biggest improvement in recent weeks has been her vocabulary. She is using her strong language skills and deductive reasoning very effectively. As usual, she did extremely well in the writing (multiple choice) section, so even though she's improved, I believe she is capable of a much higher score than a 570.
We did a couple of sentence completion questions then focused on the writing sections. The student has really improved on the grammar sections, and I'm interested in seeing how he performs under time constraints. He is very good at identifying sentence structures and using the strategies we have worked on. We can still tie up some loose ends on the grammar front, but I am very encouraged by the progress we have made thus far.
The student and I got started by going through her practice ACT; she had scored much higher than she expected on the Math and Reading tests (though we still went over the missed/guessed answers). We will work on pacing as she mentioned not being able to finish the Science tests in time.
Made clear goals with the student about what work he needs to do on his own time between sessions, mainly practice tests, to figure out the pacing of the exam and become comfortable taking tests in the SAT format, and making an effort to read more to expand his useful vocabulary, reading speed, and reading comprehension. Took two diagnostic tests (one in Critical Reading and one in Mathematics). Determined that he is strong in Mathematics.
The student and I covered the Advanced Algebra section of the COMPASS exam tonight, after finishing the Basic Algebra section entirely. We've about one session's worth of material left on that, and then he'll take the exam before going on vacation.
Today the student and I worked on the essay for the first half hour. I went over some example prompts with her and we looked at brainstorming and examples for each topic. We then moved to analogies, followed by the reading passages and then math for the last 50 minutes or so.
