Goethe B1 Speaking Part 3: Feedback and Questions
Updated: 28 September 2026 · Checked against official exam sources
In the official adult model, the third task lasts about two minutes: answer questions about your presentation, give feedback on your partner’s presentation and ask a question.
A way to approach it
While listening, note one specific point to mention. Give brief feedback, then ask a question related to the presentation. Answer any question about your own presentation directly.
Final check
Replay your practice recording: is your feedback specific, and does your question relate to what your partner presented?
Practise with the official sample
Take the relevant part of the Goethe-Institut adult model set to its official time. Use the key for Reading and Listening and the published criteria for Writing and Speaking. In your next attempt, measure whether the same error recurs.
