German A1 Writing Exam – Effective Tips for the Letter Section

The A1 writing exam is an essential part of the German A1 language test. It assesses whether you can write simple messages, such as personal letters, short notes, or emails. It's not only about grammar and vocabulary but also about clear structure, correct salutations, and appropriate content.

What is required in the writing section?

Typically, you are given a specific situation – for example, you need to write to someone because you want to reschedule an appointment or ask for information. The task usually includes three to four points that you should address in your text. Your text should be about 30 to 50 words long. It is important that you mention all required points and write clearly and understandably.

Important elements for the A1 writing exam

To prepare well for the test, you should practice the following areas:

  • Greetings and addressing forms (e.g. "Hello Anna", "Dear Mrs. Meier")
  • Asking questions and requesting information (e.g. "Could you please write to me...?")
  • Writing rejections or invitations (e.g. "Unfortunately, I cannot come")
  • Making requests and giving answers (e.g. "Please help me")
  • Polite closing phrases (e.g. "Kind regards", "Best wishes")

Practice grammar and sentence structure

The writing task does not require perfect German, but you should be able to form simple sentences correctly. Present tense, modal verbs (like "would like" or "must"), and correct word order are especially important. Short subordinate clauses with "because" or "that" may also appear. Spelling is also an evaluation criterion.

Helpful preparation methods

  • Practice with real sample tasks from previous exams.
  • Write short texts regularly on typical topics such as birthdays, language courses, travel, or work.
  • Read other letters and pay attention to common expressions.
  • Have your letters corrected by teachers or native speakers.
  • Use online platforms with interactive A1 exercises and solutions.

Common topics in the A1 writing exam

The tasks usually deal with everyday situations, for example:

  • You want to attend a course and write an email to the school.
  • You invite a friend to your birthday party.
  • You have to cancel a doctor's appointment and schedule a new one.
  • You write to a coworker to say you are sick and cannot come to work.

Our recommendation

Good preparation for the A1 writing exam is possible if you practice regularly, use real examples, and become familiar with the structure of a simple letter. Even if you still make many mistakes: practice and repetition will help you improve your writing and pass the exam successfully.

Tabesh Shahrivar: „This is the best you can imagine!“

Elena Spiridonova: „Very practical and clearly structured website interface. All necessary information is available.“

Anna Chin: „Hello, from August to October I prepared for the B1 exam with Olena. As a result, I passed the exam and received my B1 certificate. I would like to say that the training with Olena gave me more knowledge than the courses, because during those months my listening, reading, and writing skills improved noticeably. Speaking, of course, depends on vocabulary, but we practiced dialogues and naturally spoke more together as well.“
