Are you a better speaker, readers, writer or listener? Which is your strength of the 4 to reach CLB 7 in each?

i am a beginner and started learning recently. I know the basics like pronunciation and grammar. So wanted to know which exam module to prepare.

To be included in the French draws you need CLB 7 in all sections which is advanced-intermediate fluency. Get a French tutor and join French language groups. There are many videos on YouTube describing the differences so watch some of them based on your strengths.

Both TEF and TCF test the same French skills: listening, reading, writing, and speaking, but TCF is usually considered slightly more structured and predictable, which many beginners find easier. If your main goal is to improve CRS for immigration, focus less on “which is easier” and more on building consistent fluency across all four modules.
Joining a good IELTS or language training program can also help you develop exam techniques, improve confidence, and understand test patterns better, even if your focus is on French. Regular practice with guided feedback makes a big difference over time.
