The B1 German course at Phonem is designed for learners with solid basic knowledge. You'll speak more independently about everyday life, work, and social topics while working specifically towards CEFR level B1.
The course follows the Common European Framework of Reference in B1.1 and B1.2. You'll practise coherent speaking, understanding texts, and structured writing. One course costs 419 €. As a gift for early registration (at least 7 days before the course starts) you pay only 379 €, our early-booking price. Many learners use B1 as a language certificate for naturalisation, vocational training, or university studies.
In small groups you speak often, get direct feedback and practise exam-style tasks with a clear thread running through them.
What do you learn in the B1 German course?
Your journey through B1
B1 is a milestone: You're now using German independently. You can talk about experiences, express opinions, and master most everyday situations in German.
At this level, your linguistic flexibility grows. You'll combine known structures creatively, close gaps through context, and understand longer texts and conversations with increasing confidence.
B1 is an important level for everyday life, work, vocational training, and university studies. The course at Phonem prepares you specifically for the CEFR requirements at B1.
