# telc B1 Mündliche Prüfung Part 3 – Plan Together

> Oral exam Part 3 of the telc B1: plan something together and reach agreement. Phrases for suggestions and agreement, typical mistakes and an example.

## Key takeaways

- You plan something together (e.g. a party) and agree on a solution.
- Make suggestions, react to them and reach agreement at the end.

- Task type: Planning conversation
- Focus: Negotiating together

## What this part tests

Part 3 tests whether you can plan something together with your partner and reach agreement. You get a task – for example “plan a farewell party for a colleague together” – and discuss what, when, where and how you’ll do it.

It’s about cooperation: making suggestions, reacting to your partner’s suggestions, weighing up and reaching a joint decision at the end. A good contribution isn’t just “yes” or “no” but a concrete suggestion with a short reason.

If you have phrases for suggestions, agreement and dividing tasks ready, you plan fluently. Importantly, you really need to reach a result – an open conversation without agreement feels incomplete.

**What you practice:** Making suggestions, Reacting to suggestions, Reaching agreement

## How to approach it

1. Read the planning task and think about which points you need to settle (what, when, where, who).
2. Make a concrete suggestion (“Wie wäre es, wenn wir …?”).
3. React to your partner’s suggestions – agree, add to them or propose something else.
4. Divide the tasks at the end (“Ich kümmere mich um …, kannst du …?”).
5. Close with a clear agreement (“Gut, dann machen wir das so”).

## Example task with answer

A short example in the same format: how to plan together and reach agreement (phrases in German).

**Task:** Plan a small farewell party for a colleague who is leaving the company together.

- Example phrases (excerpt):
  - Answer: Wie wäre es, wenn wir die Feier am Freitagnachmittag im Büro machen? – Gute Idee! Sollen wir etwas zu essen bestellen? – Ja, und ich kümmere mich um ein Geschenk. Kannst du die Kollegen einladen? – Einverstanden, das mache ich. Dann ist alles geplant. — The example makes concrete suggestions (“Wie wäre es, wenn …?”), reacts in agreement, divides the tasks and reaches a clear agreement at the end – exactly what Part 3 expects.

## Practice: test yourself

In Part 3 you plan a birthday surprise for a colleague together.

- Which sentence makes a good suggestion for planning together?
  - a) Ist mir egal, mach du das.
  - b) Wie wäre es, wenn wir einen Kuchen backen und sie zum Essen einladen?
  - c) Das schaffen wir sowieso nicht.
  - Answer: b — In Part 3 you actively make suggestions and plan together. Option b is a concrete suggestion with “Wie wäre es, wenn …?”. a and c don’t move the planning forward.

## Common mistakes

- **No concrete suggestions:** “Ja, machen wir was” isn’t enough. Make concrete suggestions with “Wie wäre es, wenn …?”.
- **Leaving it all to the partner:** Part 3 is teamwork – bring your own ideas and react actively.
- **No agreement:** Without a joint result the conversation feels incomplete. Agree at the end.
- **Forgetting the phrases:** Without phrases for suggestion and agreement, the planning sounds clumsy. Learn a set.

## Tips

- Learn phrases for suggestions (“Sollen wir …?”), agreement (“Gute Idee!”) and dividing tasks.
- Make sure you really reach an agreement at the end.
- Respond to your partner instead of just pushing through your own ideas.
