What is German A2 level?
A2 is the second of the six CEFR levels. It is still basic German, but now in connected sentences and for routine situations.
With a German A2 certificate you show that you can:
- Understand and use common expressions and sentences in everyday situations
- Communicate in simple, routine situations about familiar topics such as your background and education, your surroundings and your needs
- Pick out the main information from short texts such as simple newspaper texts, ads and information boards

You speak in every class
Batches of 10 to 12, with 10 to 15 minutes of speaking practice in every class. The A2 speaking exam is taken in pairs, so most speaking practice is with a partner.
