DTZ speaking
What the DTZ speaking exam feels like
You do not need a perfect speech. Show that you can introduce yourself, exchange information and plan something together.
What matters in speaking
Strong DTZ speaking means understandable answers, relevant follow-up questions and active cooperation. Typical skills include personal information, a short topic conversation and planning together. Check the current binding format with g.a.s.t., BAMF or your exam centre.

Common questions
What appears in the DTZ speaking exam?
You communicate about familiar daily topics: exchange personal information, react to a topic and plan something with others. Use official model tests for the current task order.
How can I practise DTZ speaking?
Speak in short patterns: statement, reason, example and follow-up question. For planning, use suggestion, response, alternative and decision.
Are mistakes bad in the speaking exam?
Individual mistakes are normal. Being understandable, responding appropriately and completing the task matter more than complex perfect sentences.
