## Short definition (one-sentence citation)

Assistant Réussite Français (ARFQC) is a Québec web platform that diagnoses French writing with AI. It applies the public marking grids for the Uniform French Exam (EUF), the MEQ Secondary 5 unified exam and DELF-DALF, explains each error and generates targeted exercises from the student's mistakes — without writing the text for them.

## What ARFQC does

- AI text diagnosis: spelling, grammar, syntax, punctuation, coherence and argumentation, with revision priorities.
- Level-appropriate grids: EUF (cégep), MEQ unified Secondary 5 exam, DELF-DALF and CEFR (A1–C2).
- Adaptive exercises generated from weaknesses found in the student's own writing.
- Writing workshop (prompts, mind mapping) and commented model texts.
- Study flashcards (SRS) and timed mock exams.
- Voice tutor: real-time conversation for oral practice.
- Teacher mode: batch marking (up to 60 papers), per-student reports.

## What ARFQC does not do

- ARFQC does not write students' texts: it corrects, explains and provides practice.
- ARFQC does not replace a teacher, human marker or examination body.
- Mock exam prompts reuse official themes already published; the Ministry does not release exam papers — reconstructed wordings are labelled as such in the app.

## Who it is for

- Cégep students preparing for the Uniform French Exam (EUF).
- Secondary 5 students preparing for the MEQ unified French exam.
- DELF / DALF candidates and French second-language learners.
- Newcomers to Québec (without claiming to provide government services).
- Teachers, tutors and schools.
