Do I need to sign in to start the speaking coach?
The service description and current bank size are public. Sign-in and eligible speaking access are required to open speaking practice and before a real-time session starts.
TCF Canada Speaking Practice and AI Evaluation
Practise one prompt or a complete three-task simulation, then review a 20-point estimate, NCLC level, eight dimensions, main errors, strengths, and next steps. Pronunciation and fluency are evaluated only with enough audio evidence; real-time access depends on eligible rights.
What you practise
- 20-point and NCLC training estimates
- Eight dimensions, errors, strengths, and next steps
- Pronunciation and fluency only with enough audio evidence
Speaking feedback example
This excerpt shows how the report separates a position, supporting reasons, and evidence still needed.
Example response excerpt
À mon avis, le transport public devrait être moins cher parce qu'il aide les étudiants et réduit la circulation.- Position and reasons: the opinion is clear and supported by two relevant reasons.
- Development: add one concrete situation or data point to make the argument stronger.
- Evidence boundary: this text-only example cannot support pronunciation or fluency feedback.
This example shows the report structure only; it is not a real user's result and does not guarantee a score.

How speaking performance is analyzed
The training report separates task completion, interaction, and language performance instead of showing only an unexplained total.
- Task completion and interaction
- Reviews the role objective, responses to the interlocutor, and continuity of the exchange.
- Coherence and time management
- Reviews response structure, links between ideas, and use of the task time.
- Accuracy and lexical range
- Reviews grammar control, vocabulary range, and language appropriate to the situation.
- Pronunciation and fluency
- Evaluated only when the report has sufficient audio evidence; text-only reports mark this dimension as not evaluated.
Speaking simulation versus official scoring
The simulation supports task and interaction practice but does not reproduce the official test's two independent human assessments.
- In the official test, the test-centre examiner assesses the interview and the recording is then assessed independently by a trained France Éducation international evaluator.
- The simulator provides training feedback from the audio and text evidence available in the session; it does not issue an official score.
Turn the estimate into an NCLC target
The AI estimate is for practice planning only; it is not a language result for Express Entry or another immigration program. After an official TCF Canada test, convert each ability with the IRCC equivalency table.
How it works
- 1.Choose a prompt or full simulation
- 2.Confirm access before connecting
- 3.Complete the session and review the report
TCF speaking simulation questions
Does a standard free account include the real-time speaking coach?
No. A standard free account does not include the real-time coach; access is checked before the connection begins.
Does paid membership include unlimited use of the speaking coach?
No. All four paid plans unlock the same speaking bank and mock-exam content, but real-time service remains subject to the account's available allowance and service status, checked again before connection.
Is the speaking simulation result official?
No. The feedback supports practice and does not replace an official TCF result or an examiner's assessment.
Does every speaking report evaluate pronunciation?
No. Pronunciation and fluency are evaluated only when sufficient audio evidence is available; a text-only or insufficient-audio report marks the dimension as not evaluated.
