Practise a single telc B2 Sprechen Teil, on demand
You don't always need the full 13-minute mock. Heloria's tutor can now launch just one telc B2 Sprechen part — Teil 1, 2 or 3 — matched to your weak spot.
Short answer: In Heloria you no longer have to run the whole telc Deutsch B2 speaking exam to practise it. When it fits what you're working on, the tutor launches just one Teil — Teil 1 (Präsentation), Teil 2 (Diskussion) or Teil 3 (Gemeinsam etwas planen) — as a short, live, AI-examined drill of about four to five minutes, instead of the full ~13-minute three-part mock. It picks the part that targets your weak spot, and tells you which Teil it's starting and why.
Why a single Teil, not the whole exam
The full telc B2 Sprechen is three parts back to back, plus 20 minutes of preparation — a real mock exam worth doing, but not every day. Most sessions you don't have a spare quarter of an hour, and most of the time your problem isn't all three parts — it's one of them. Maybe your Präsentation runs out of structure, or you go quiet in the Diskussion, or the planning task in Teil 3 leaves you searching for the right Redemittel.
Practising the whole exam to rehearse the one part that wobbles is a poor use of your time. So Heloria's tutor can now scope the speaking exam down to a single Teil, launch it right from the chat, and keep the rest of your session for everything else.
The three telc B2 Sprechen parts, each on its own
Each part is a distinct skill, and each can now be run alone:
| Teil | What it is | Length |
|---|---|---|
| Teil 1 — Präsentation | A short presentation on a given topic, from your own experience. | ~4 min |
| Teil 2 — Diskussion | A discussion: react, agree, disagree, keep the exchange going. | ~5 min |
| Teil 3 — Gemeinsam etwas planen | Plan something together toward a shared decision. | ~4 min |
When the tutor scopes a drill, the launch card tells you exactly what you're about to start — for example "Teil 2 — Diskussion · ~5 Min." — so a focused rep reads as a focused rep, not a surprise full exam. You start it, the AI examiner runs that one part in real time, and you get the same pronunciation-scored feedback afterwards, weighted toward what the tutor asked you to work on.
The tutor decides when it fits
You don't dig through a menu of exam parts. The tutor launches the drill the way a human tutor would — because the moment is right:
- You've been building an argument in chat, so it drops you into Teil 2 to defend it out loud.
- Your study plan flags the presentation as your weakest area, so it runs Teil 1 on a fresh topic.
- There are only a few minutes left in the session, so it picks a single four-minute Teil instead of starting a mock it can't finish.
Before it starts, the tutor says which Teil it's launching and why — so the practice is deliberate, matched to your weak spot and the time you actually have, not a default that always runs everything.
When you do want the full exam
Targeted drilling doesn't replace the real thing — it complements it. When you want the complete rehearsal, the tutor still runs the full three-part telc B2 Sprechen, with the 20-minute preparation phase and all three Teile in sequence. The rule of thumb Heloria follows is the one a good teacher would: single Teile most days, the full mock when you're near the exam or you ask for one. Drill the parts, rehearse the whole.
What's live today — and what isn't
Single-Teil Sprechen practice is live now for the telc Deutsch B2 exam, for English speakers learning German. It's part of Heloria's one live voice exam; the written and receptive parts (Lesen, Sprachbausteine, Hören, Schreiben) are practised as graded tasks inside the chat.
Other exams (Goethe, ÖSD, TestDaF), other language pairs, and mobile are on the roadmap — not available yet. We'd rather say that plainly than imply more than we ship.
FAQ
Can I practise just one part of the telc B2 speaking exam? Yes. Heloria's tutor can launch a single Teil — Teil 1 (Präsentation), Teil 2 (Diskussion) or Teil 3 (Gemeinsam etwas planen) — as a short live drill of about four to five minutes, instead of the full three-part exam.
How long is a single Teil? Roughly four to five minutes of speaking: Teil 1 and Teil 3 run about four minutes each, Teil 2 about five. The full exam is all three back to back, plus 20 minutes of preparation.
Does a single Teil still get scored feedback? Yes. You get the same post-exam feedback with pronunciation scoring as the full mock, weighted toward the part — and the specific focus — the tutor set for the drill.
Can I still run the whole Sprechen exam? Yes. The full three-part telc B2 Sprechen mock, with its 20-minute preparation phase, is still there for when you want the complete rehearsal.
How does the tutor choose which Teil to run? From what you've been working on, your study plan and your weaker areas, and the time left in the session — and it tells you which Teil it's starting and why before it begins.
What does it cost? Heloria is free in early access, no credit card.
