Formulate emails and notices politely and clearly, matching the register.
Reading texts
Read information, notices and rules and find the important places.

Five tips
How to practise alongside work.
- Short sessions. A few minutes every day bring more than one long evening. Mistake training is made for that.
- Collect words from your occupation. Add the terms you really need at work to your exam practice.
- Ask your company for support. Some companies and programmes help with language courses or exam fees. It is worth asking.
- Use one whole exam as a starting point. It shows you whether A2 or B2 fits at the moment.
- Practise speaking regularly. Even ten minutes with the AI partner help you become more fluent.
