Those who take the Goethe Certificate at B2 level demonstrate that they can write a short formal message in a real work or study environment. In the “Messages” module, you write a polite email of about 80 words to an institution, company, or authority. The goal is to request information, submit a complaint, or confirm an appointment – clearly and appropriately written.
You write a formal message for a specific situation. Usually, there are three to four guiding points, and you should write one paragraph for each. The message should be around 80 words long. You have 25 minutes for this task. It is part of the overall written exam.
Our expert Olena is the founder of this learning platform and leads the entire concept. She is a linguist with extensive experience in exam preparation and works with examiners from Germany, Austria, Switzerland, and beyond. She develops the exercises and examples specifically for learners preparing for professional and academic requirements.
"Plan your message with a few keywords – one idea per bullet point. Stick to clear sentences and don’t waste time on unnecessary phrases. A structured approach saves time and nerves."
With this overview, you have everything you need to prepare effectively and confidently for the written message task – whether you're learning for work, daily life, or study purposes.
