Why is the official German exam fee charged separately?

Preparation is part of the German course, while the official telc or Goethe exam is booked and paid separately. The examination centre sets its own fees and dates. The course itself includes relevant preparation but does not include the external exam registration fee.

Short answer

Preparation is part of the German course, while the official telc or Goethe exam is booked and paid separately.

The examination centre sets its own fees and dates. The course itself includes relevant preparation but does not include the external exam registration fee.

Why is a small group especially helpful?

Our live online courses bring together 3–6 participants. This creates more room for questions, active speaking and direct individual corrections than a larger class of the same duration. The content can be adjusted to what the group actually needs.

  • Exam preparation integrated into lessons
  • Official exam paid to the exam centre
  • You can attend without a scheduled exam

Who benefits from this approach?

This approach is particularly useful for people learning German alongside work, for everyday life or in preparation for Goethe and telc examinations. The aim is to remember and use what you learn.
