The dates for tutorials and Goethe exams at Goethe-Jinchuang Shanghai in June and July 2025 have been set. Please register for our “tutorials and exams” via our WeChat Mini Program at the times indicated further down in this announcement.
A quick reminder: we have improved the portfolio of the Goethe exams we offer for all levels of Goethe certificates in Shanghai! The exams are now presented under the new title of “tutorial and exam: Goethe-Zertifikat xx“. While the title has been adjusted, the main content has essentially remained the same: participants will take the desired exam and be issued certificates by the Goethe-Institut after passing the exam. However, the offer now also includes an additional 60 minute tutorial on the form and structure of the exam at no extra cost. That is why the new tutorial and exam format includes two dates – the one of the 60 minute tutorial course and the exam date itself. Please note both dates included in this concept when registering for your “tutorial and exam: Goethe-Zertifikat xx”. The tutorial part will be taught online via Tencent software a couple of days before the corresponding Goethe-Zertifikat takes place offline as before.
The following table shows our planned schedule for both tutorials and the corresponding Goethe certificates exam dates for June and July 2025 (please be aware that we can only accept registrations from adult persons, 18 years of age or older).

Important Notes
◇Candidates may only register for one tutorial/exam on the same CEFR level (if we offer multiple tutorial exams on that level), and if participants are still waiting for the results of a previously taken exam at Goethe-Jinchuang they may not register for the new tutorial/exams on the same CEFR level of the previously taken exam until the previous results have been released.

◇On the website of Goethe-Institute https://www.goethe.de/en/spr/prf.html you can find a set of model exercises and two sets of practice exercises, exam guidelines, terms and conditions for exam administration, supplement to the terms and conditions for exam administration: exam participants with special needs, information for exam candidates with special needs, manual Examination goals and test description and glossary.
