How it works

How Masar Deutsch teaches

Start at your level, study a little every day, and use your German in real situations. Here is what happens at each step.

  1. Placement test

    About 30 to 45 minutes: questions on grammar, vocabulary, reading and listening that adapt to your answers, then a short writing and speaking task. It suggests where to start, so you do not repeat what you already know.

  2. A daily plan

    Each day the app puts together a short plan: your next unit step, words that are due for review and one more thing to practise.

  3. Units in a clear order

    64 units from A1 to B2. Each one starts with a German conversation, then the words, the grammar in plain English, useful phrases, exercises that check every answer, and speaking.

  4. Spaced review

    Words and sentences come back just before you would forget them, so they stay in your memory. The article (der, die, das) and the plural travel with every noun.

  5. Hear it, then say it

    Conversations, words and sentences are read by two clear synthetic (AI) German voices, added level by level; a line without a recording says so. Record yourself and compare.

  6. Exam practice in the Goethe style

    14 mock exams with the four parts Hören, Lesen, Schreiben and Sprechen, and 10 practice sets for the parts of the A1 exam. The practice pass mark is 60%.

Exam practice

Practice in the Goethe style, honestly labelled.

  • Mock exams by level (A0: 2, A1: 3, A2: 3, B1: 3, B2: 3) with the four parts of the Goethe-Zertifikat exams: Hören, Lesen, Schreiben and Sprechen, and their timings.
  • 10 practice sets for the parts of the A1 exam (Start Deutsch 1 style): forms, short messages, listening, reading and speaking.
  • The practice pass mark is 60%, as in the Goethe exams. A practice result is guidance, not an exam result.
  • All tasks are written for Masar Deutsch. No official exam paper is copied.

Exam practice follows the style of the Goethe-Zertifikat exams. Masar Deutsch is not affiliated with, approved by or endorsed by the Goethe-Institut, and its mock exams are not official papers.

Estimates, not guarantees. From a complete beginner, at about 1 hour a day. Your starting level, your practice outside the course and the time you really give each day all change it. The placement test gives you an estimate for your own result.
