Timeline
12 weeks per level
The Goethe-Zertifikat is the German certificate Indian employers, universities and the Ausbildung route recognise without argument. It runs A1 through C2, and each level is examined separately in reading, listening, writing and speaking.
Most people who write to us need B1, because that is the level named in the Ausbildung visa route under §16a AufenthG. Chambers of commerce frequently expect B2 in practice, and nursing recognition requires B2 outright.
The planning figure that matters: from no German at all to B1 is roughly 30 weeks of consistent class time, not the 12 weeks that gets quoted for a single level. Budget for the ladder, not the first rung.
How we prepare people for it
Small live groups where the demand supports one, and one to one where it does not. Every teacher on this language holds the certificate a level above what they teach, and we say who they are before you pay.
Examination fees are paid by you directly to the examining body. We do not mark them up and we do not book them for you.
