Telc B2 Presentation

All Details About the Presentation Task in the Telc B2 Exam

Why This Writing Format Matters

In the written part of the exam, you may be asked to write a short informative text in the form of a presentation. The goal is to organize a topic clearly and express your point of view. What matters is clarity, logical structure, and appropriate use of language – just as expected in real-life professional writing.

Four Key Structural Steps

1. Introduction – present the topic and capture interest
2. Main points – three to four core statements with fitting examples
3. Opinion – explain your personal position and anticipate questions
4. Conclusion – summarize your message and offer an outlook

Common Topic Areas

• Changing work environments: remote work and hybrid teams
• Sustainable mobility in urban areas
• Digital learning methods in schools and universities
• Cultural diversity in the workplace

Helpful Questions to Keep Your Focus

• Which facts will immediately convince the reader?
• Which practical example makes the topic easier to understand?
• What counterarguments might appear – and how can I respond?
• What should remain in the reader’s mind after reading?

Expert Tip from Olena

Olena – founder of this platform – develops all exercises in cooperation with experienced German teachers and examiners from around the world. Her advice: Plan your text using keyword cards. Each card stands for one section: introduction, facts, opinion, conclusion. Lay them out, change the order if necessary – and only then start writing. This method helps you keep a clear overview and avoid repetition.

Additional Expert Opinions

• Dr. Sarah Levy (Examiner): Clear subheadings for each paragraph make evaluation easier and earn points for structure.
• Marco Rossi (Language Coach): One precise example per paragraph is more convincing than several weaker ones.
