Liana writes GoethéB1's Goethe-Zertifikat B1 guides and German-citizenship articles. She works through every official Goethe-Institut Modellsatz herself, so the task types, timing and scoring in the guides match the real exam. Focus areas: exam format, naturalization (Einbürgerung) and the B1 language proof.
