About
PassDeutsch started with a simple frustration: plenty of apps teach German, almost none prepare you for the specific paper you booked, and none of them tell you whether your writing would pass.
Preparing for a German exam usually means assembling your own course out of parts: a textbook for grammar, a flashcard app for vocabulary, a PDF of a sample paper someone shared, and - if you are lucky and can afford it - a tutor who will mark one letter a week. The parts do not talk to each other, and none of them tells you the one thing you need to know: would this pass?
PassDeutsch was built around that question. You choose the exam you actually booked - Goethe-Zertifikat, telc Deutsch or the DTZ - and the app gives you complete model tests in that format, timed the way the real paper is timed, with instant scoring for reading and listening and AI evaluation for writing and speaking. Then it shows you, module by module, where the certificate is currently being lost.
PassDeutsch is published by ShawonPro LLC ( ShawonPro), a small educational software company that builds language and learning apps. We are independent: not a school, not an exam board, and not affiliated with any examination body.
The roadmap is driven by what learners actually get stuck on: more model tests at every level, deeper speaking practice, better explanations behind each marked answer, and support for further exam formats. If something in the app is wrong, unclear or missing, tell us - contact@shawonpro.com reaches the people who build it.
How we build
Every task in the app exists in a real exam paper. Task types, part counts and timers follow the provider you choose, because the gap between knowing German and passing a German exam is mostly format familiarity.
There is no shortage of German material online. What learners cannot get alone is somebody telling them why an answer scored what it scored - which is why writing and speaking evaluation sit at the centre of the app rather than at the edge.
Studying with instructions in a language you are fluent in is faster, and it is what a good teacher would do. Eight languages, including ones this category usually ignores.
Every one of the 210 model tests is free. You should be able to measure yourself properly, in the real exam format, without a paywall standing between you and the answer.
PassDeutsch is an independent study tool. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to the Goethe-Institut, telc gGmbH, the Bundesamt für Migration und Flüchtlinge (BAMF), or any official examination body. Goethe-Zertifikat, telc Deutsch and DTZ are trademarks of their respective owners. Exam formats and requirements can change - always confirm the current specification with your test centre before booking.
