What is the Goethe B1 Sprechen exam?

The Goethe B1 Sprechen exam checks how well you can communicate in German. You do not need perfect grammar. However, your ideas should be clear and connected.

You should show that you can speak about everyday topics. You also need to react to another person, ask questions, and explain your opinion.

The speaking module normally includes three main tasks:
