  2. knowledge of the exam structure: you should know what to expect on the day of the exam, i.e. how the exam is structured, what types of tasks you can expect and how you can best cope with them.

If you do not yet meet the language requirements, we recommend attending our German intensive coursesGerman evening courses or private lessons. In the German courses, you will practice your skills in the four competencies of reading, writing, listening and speaking. The German courses are conducted in accordance with the European Framework of Reference. In the courses at level B2, you will acquire all the knowledge and skills required to take an exam. However, exam preparation explicitly for telc B2 does not take place in the intensive courses and evening courses.
