Practice for CILS B1 Cittadinanza

Prepare for CILS B1 Cittadinanza by talking to an AI examiner

For anyone afraid of the speaking test: an AI examiner talks to you the way the exam does, before the real day. Then timed mocks and writing correction.

Free to start: one writing correction with no account, then with an account one examiner call and one mock part. Then €39 once, for 12 months.

Practice, not the official exam. Scores are estimates.

The screen before a call: the four topics to choose from and the Start the recording button.

The speaking test

A voice that asks you questions. No text to read.

The examiner is a practice AI, not a person. The call has the shape of the real test: first questions about you, then a topic you choose. It gives no help and no praise. You can stop whenever you want.

  1. The first minuteSimple questions about you: name, where you are from, where you live, study or work.
  2. Minutes 2 to 4You choose a topic. The examiner asks a question, then follows what you answer.
  3. At the endThe estimated score and your sentences, the ones to fix and the ones that worked.

The speaking test, explained

The mocks

The whole exam, on the real clock.

Four parts in the official order. We keep the time, so reloading the page does not give minutes back. Each recording plays twice, as in the exam. The exercises are ours, written for this level.

Listening
30 minutes
Reading and grammar
40 minutes
Writing
40 minutes
Speaking
10 minutes, about

These are the minutes of the real exam. In the mock, the speaking call is shorter.

A mock part with its timer: 39:56 left, true or false questions and the hand-in button.

The writing

Write the email. See where you lose points.

The formal email is 80 to 120 words, to a landlord or an office. The correction follows the five marking criteria and explains each mistake in English or simple Italian: the register, the conditionals, the closing phrase.

Get an email corrected, no account

A free correction: the wrong phrase crossed out in red, the right one in green, with the reason.

Every day

Know what to do today, up to your exam date.

Set your exam date. The app counts the days and gives you today's list: writing, reading, speaking, listening and grammar, one thing at a time.

The Today screen: days left to the exam, and today's list with writing, reading and speaking.

An honest score, even when it is uncomfortable.

After a mock you see an estimate out of 12 for each part. As the line we use 7 out of 12, the most cited figure. No official document that names this module confirms it, and we say so.

What it gives you

  • Where you stand, part by part.
  • The sentences to fix, in your own words.
  • A reason to do the test again.

What it does not give you

  • An official result.
  • A promise that you will pass.
  • A replacement for the real exam.

Questions people ask

Is this the real exam?

No. It is practice, not official, and you cannot sit the exam online with us. The exam is taken at an authorised centre.

Does the score tell me if I will pass?

No. It is an estimate to show where you stand. It is not an official result and it promises nothing.

Who do I talk to in the call?

An AI practice examiner. It is not a person and not an official examiner. The conversation is recorded.

Does it work for PLIDA or CELI?

The speaking practice also helps people preparing PLIDA or CELI. The mocks and the writing are built on CILS B1 Cittadinanza, not on standard B1 or the other bodies' tasks.

What is free?

One writing correction with no account. With a free account, one call with the examiner and one mock part.
