What Is Your German Level?

When you’re learning German, it’s hard to know if you’re actually improving and what your actual level is.

Simply because as a learner, you can’t assess yourself. You need an assessment from language teachers and experts who will know if you’re actually improving.

That’s where our GermanPod101 assessment test comes in!

Our team of language teachers designed a free German assessment test to:

Unlock your current level: Absolute Beginner, Beginner, Intermediate, or Advanced.
Identify your mistakes: See where you need to improve.
Reveal your test score: Find out how you performed as soon as you finish.
Give you lessons for your level: You unlock a recommended learning path based on your results.
