Clases virtuales para el TEFQ: Una experiencia que marcó la diferencia
Prepararme para el examen TEFQ de francés parecía un gran desafío, pero las clases virtuales que tomé marcaron una diferencia enorme en mi proceso. Desde el inicio, los contenidos estaban perfectamente adaptados a los requerimientos del examen, enfocándose en las cuatro competencias: comprensión oral, comprensión escrita, expresión oral y expresión escrita.
El formato virtual fue increíblemente práctico. Pude estudiar desde casa con horarios flexibles, lo cual fue clave para combinar mis estudios con otras responsabilidades. Los profesores eran altamente calificados, pacientes y conocían a profundidad las estrategias necesarias para superar cada sección del examen.
Quiero destacar especialmente a Andrea Delgado, mi profesora, quien con su paciencia y amor en cada clase hizo que el aprendizaje fuera no solo efectivo, sino también motivador y agradable. Su apoyo y dedicación marcaron una gran diferencia en mi preparación.
Lo que más me ayudó fueron las simulaciones de examen y los ejercicios prácticos, que se parecían mucho a las preguntas reales del TEFQ. Esto me hizo sentir preparado y seguro el día del examen.
Gracias a estas clases, logré aprobar las cuatro competencias con excelentes resultados y estoy un paso más cerca de alcanzar mis metas personales y profesionales. Recomiendo este programa, y especialmente a Andrea, a cualquiera que busque una preparación efectiva, accesible y de calidad para el TEFQ.
