Question 1

How is the TELC B1 Writing module structured?

Accepted Answer

You have 30 minutes to write a personal or semi-formal letter (e.g., responding to an email, advertisement, or postcard). You will be given four thematic points that you must address in your response.

Question 2

What are the key requirements?

Accepted Answer

You should write a response (maximum 150 words) covering all four points. You will receive a task sheet, an answer sheet, and stamped concept paper for notes. Remember to transfer your final text to the answer sheet within the 30-minute timeframe (plan about 10 minutes for this).

Question 3

What tips can help me succeed?

Accepted Answer

Do not start every sentence with "Ich". Use conjunctions (e.g., "außerdem", "vielleicht", "weil", "dass") to connect your ideas. Vary your sentence structure and ensure you address all four points to maximize your score. No dictionary is allowed.
