DTZ for adults, A2–B1

Practise for your DTZ exam

Work through a practice paper in your exam format. Check your reading and listening answers, or submit a writing response for feedback on the task and your language. Download the papers and listening audio to practise away from the screen.

For speaking, use photo cards for candidates A and B and the examiner guides with a partner or teacher. DTZ speaking is materials only; there is no live conversation in Faust.

Reading and listening feedback uses the questions you answered. Skipped questions are not treated as evidence of a weakness. Writing review keeps the selected task and your response together and names the capabilities assessed.

Use Gym to practise individual reading, listening and writing skills. Speaking Gym drills are not available for these profiles.
