Practise German writing — with real corrections
Writing is the skill that improves fastest, because it depends most on structure. Once you know how an exam text is built, you gain marks before your grammar is perfect.
What examiners actually mark
- Task achievement: were all prompt points covered?
- Coherence: is there a clear thread with suitable connectors?
- Vocabulary: is the word choice varied and level-appropriate?
- Accuracy: do errors interfere with understanding?
A structure that always holds
Opening that refers to the trigger, body with one paragraph per prompt point, closing with a request or suggestion. This works equally for complaints, applications, forum posts and opinion pieces.
Memorise fixed phrases for opening and closing. They cost no thinking time in the exam and immediately read at level.
Correction that explains, not just marks
Lingut corrects your text sentence by sentence, offers a better formulation and maps the performance onto your exam's marking criteria. You see which criterion cost you marks, not just that something was wrong.
Frequently asked questions
How often should I practise writing?
Two texts a week is enough, provided you read every correction properly and revise the text once afterwards.
Is AI correction as good as a teacher?
For grammar, vocabulary and structure it is fast and consistent. A teacher remains valuable for individual learning strategy — the two complement each other.
How long should an exam text be?
It depends on the exam and level; covering every prompt point matters more than hitting a word count.
Can I use memorised sentences?
Yes, for the opening, transitions and closing. The body must respond to the specific task.
