Exam preparation

The exam training offers a detailed insight into the respective exam and its structure. The materials are used to prepare for the listening, reading, writing and speaking modules / exam parts and are similar to a real exam in terms of task types, number of items and time limit. Simulate an exam situation by working on the tasks for the exam you want to prepare for under real conditions.

In addition, exam training with interactive evaluation – display of correct and incorrect answers – is available (accessible and certified) for each exam.
