Preparation for Deutsch B1·B2 Pflege · A1–B2
German for nurses
and caregivers.
From A1 to your B2 certificate.
Pflegeling takes internationally trained nurses, care assistants and elder-care workers from their first German word to the B2 certificate recognition authorities ask for — with dialogues from real shifts, exam practice, and instant AI feedback on your writing and speaking.
Independent preparation. Not affiliated with any examination body.
The four exam skills
Train exactly what the exam tests.
Every chapter drills the same four skills the B1·B2 Pflege exam grades — in the situations you actually meet on a ward, in a care home and in someone's front room.
Lesen
Reading
E-mails, care plans, package inserts, circulars and legal texts — the four reading parts, with the detail traps the real paper sets.
Hören
Listening
Telephone messages, ward rounds and handovers, team meetings — the four listening parts at real speed, replayable line by line and downloadable.
Schreiben
Writing
The exam task is an Aufnahmebericht or Biografiebericht — 120–170 words in 30 minutes — plus the Pflegebericht you write on every shift.
Sprechen
Speaking
All three parts of the oral exam — experience and opinions, the Kurzvortrag, the discussion — with feedback on pronunciation, fluency, accuracy and vocabulary.
AI feedback
A teacher's eye,
seconds after your shift.
Write your care report or record your handover. Pflegeling grades it the way an examiner would: task completion, grammar and vocabulary, professional register, structure.
You get a score, your strengths, concrete improvements and a corrected version of your own text — explained in your language, at 03:00 if that is when your shift ends.
Strengths
- All four blocks present: observation, measure, response, next steps.
- Professional register held throughout — no judgement words.
Improvements
- Keep one past tense — you switch to Perfekt in line 3.
- Add the exact time to every observation.
Correction
Der Patient klagenklagte über Schmerzen, deshalb ich habedeshalb habe ich den diensthabenden Arzt informiert.
Your path
Four levels, mapped to your real journey.
Language levels are not academic here. Each one opens the next door in the recognition process.
A1
First words
Introduce yourself, greet a patient, understand the shift plan. 13 chapters.
A2
Visa level
The level usually asked for the Recognition-Partnership visa route. 13 chapters.
B1
Recruitment
What programmes like Triple Win expect before departure. 14 chapters.
B2
Recognition
Full Berufsanerkennung, and the Deutsch B1·B2 Pflege certificate. 16 chapters.
Inside the app
Built for night shifts and long commutes.
Your journey, chapter by chapter — and exactly where you stopped.
Dialogues you can slow to 0.6× and translate on tap.
Eight full mock tests, under real exam timing.
Four learner languages
Learn German in your language.
Explanations, instructions and AI feedback appear in English, বাংলা, हिन्दी or Tagalog — while the German you practise stays exactly as German as the ward. Türkçe and اردو are next; this site already speaks both.
Questions care workers actually ask.
Which certificate do I need for recognition?
Most Bundesländer ask for B2 in the nursing profession — often a Fachsprachprüfung, or Deutsch B1·B2 Pflege in its place. Requirements differ by Bundesland and change over time, so confirm with the Anerkennungsstelle that will handle your file.
Do I need an internet connection?
Chapters, vocabulary, dialogues and audio work offline once you have downloaded a level. Grading is the exception: your writing and speaking answers are sent to Google Gemini to be evaluated, so those need a connection — they are saved on your device and sent as soon as you are back online.
Is it only for qualified nurses?
No — it is written for care work of every kind: qualified nurses, care assistants and Pflegehilfskräfte, elder-care and Altenpflege staff, home carers, Betreuungskräfte, and nursing students planning an Ausbildung. The German of a handover, a care report and a worried relative is the same German whoever is speaking it.
Is Pflegeling an official exam provider?
No. Pflegeling is independent preparation material for the B1·B2 Pflege examination. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by or certified by any examination body, it does not issue certificates, and it is language training and general orientation — not legal, immigration or medical advice.
