Hi there,

The French Higher speaking tier is normally a bit more difficult than the foundation one (naturally). one big thing that helped me is watching and listening to French TV shows and radio. It lets your brain be able to decipher the reason for the sentence and are able to understand context a bit better.

Generally, if you're able to pick up a few words and verbs you can roughly guess what the question is asking for. You don't need to be fluent! I would recommend to do what I mentioned above but also to brush up on conjugating verbs!

Good luck with it all.
