Telc
Englisch
The Telc B1 exam is a standardized language test that assesses the ability to communicate in German in everyday life, work, and simple formal situations. It serves as an official certificate of B1-level proficiency and is often required for naturalization or integration purposes.
Many individuals take this test to extend their residence permit, apply for German citizenship, or gain recognition of professional qualifications. Employers and educational institutions increasingly request proof of this language level.
The exam consists of a written and an oral section. Both parts assess different communication skills and are based on realistic language scenarios.
The oral part is usually done in pairs and includes:
The entire Telc B1 exam takes about 2.5 to 3 hours:
The exam is evaluated by trained assessors according to standardized criteria. To pass, candidates must achieve at least 60% in both the written and oral parts. Retaking individual sections is often possible if one part is failed.

Dmytro Incognito: „I am currently preparing for the B1 exam and using the Deutsch-Vorbereitung platform for this. I really like the website! There are many useful materials, explanations, and exercises that help me with my studies. I especially like the fact that you can practise all parts of the exam – reading, listening, writing, and speaking. Everything is explained clearly and understandably, and the examples are very similar to those in the real exam. I feel much more confident in my preparation now. I can definitely recommend the platform!“
Olya Tereshchenko: „A big thank you to Olena and her website for the excellent preparation for learning the German language and successfully passing the exam!“
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.“
