A1 Exam Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about A1 German examination practice

Our A1 practice tests are currently aligned with the CEFR levels assessed by telc exams. However, both telc and Goethe exams test the same CEFR A1 syllabus — the same vocabulary, grammar, and language skills. The main differences are in question formats. Practicing with our independently created practice tests effectively prepares you for any A1 German exam at the same CEFR level. We are actively developing Goethe-aligned practice tests, coming soon.

The A1 exam tests basic German skills – understanding simple sentences, introducing yourself, and handling everyday situations. It is required for family reunification visas and proves you can communicate at a beginner level.

With regular practice, most learners need 2-4 weeks of focused preparation. Our platform provides 40 mock exams and 600+ practice questions to help you prepare efficiently.

The A1 exam includes Reading (Leseverstehen), Listening (Hörverstehen), Writing (Schreiben), and Speaking (Sprechen). Our mock exams cover all four sections with exam-style questions.

Our AI explains why answers are correct or incorrect, checks your grammar in writing tasks, and provides instant feedback. This helps you learn from mistakes and improve faster.
