Exam Preparation Course

About preparatory classes

This course is designed for anyone aiming to confidently and efficiently prepare for internationally recognized German exams – whether it’s the Goethe, Telc, or ÖSD certificates. Whether you’re targeting level A1, B1, or even C1, this structured 10-lesson program provides clarity, confidence, and strategy for every part of the exam.

What sets this course apart is its focused approach: each lesson is thematically tailored to cover specific exam sections – reading, listening, writing, and speaking – with clear guidance, useful phrases, and real task examples. Practice is at the core! Every task we tackle together brings you closer to the actual exam.

If you’ve been studying on your own and wasting time jumping between materials, know this: clarity is key. Through this program, our candidates gain not only knowledge, but also exam strategies and confidence. Teacher support doesn’t stop when the lesson ends – we’re available between classes for questions, advice, and additional resources.

The preparation is dynamic, concise, and guided by a detailed plan. In just 10 lessons, you’ll know where you stand, what you need, and how to get there.

NOTE: THIS PROGRAM IS HELD IN SMALL GROUPS AND OPENS PERIODICALLY
to ensure each participant receives individual attention and detailed feedback. The number of spots is strictly limited.

What is the Exam Preparation Course and how do I know if it’s right for me?

The Exam Preparation Course is an intensive ONLINE program consisting of 10 lessons, held exclusively on weekends – Saturdays and Sundays – at times that suit the participants. It’s specifically designed for those planning to take internationally recognized exams such as Goethe, Telc, or ÖSD, and want to feel confident in every part of the test.

Each lesson is focused on one specific exam section – reading, listening, writing, or speaking. We don’t just explain the task formats, but also work on solving strategies, common mistakes, and techniques that lead to better results. Our students know exactly what to expect and how to present themselves in the best way.

Special emphasis is placed on speaking – with exam simulations, answer practice, and individual feedback. Beyond knowledge, we build performance confidence.

In just 10 lessons, you’ll gain clarity, hands-on practice, and support – everything you need to feel prepared and relaxed on exam day. If you’ve been unsure where to start or how to know if you’re ready, this course is made for you.
