About

Pflegeling

Features
Read full description

Your journey to care work in Germany starts with one word: Pflegeling. Pflegeling is the German learning app built for internationally-trained nurses, care assistants and elder-care workers. Whether you are preparing your visa in Manila, Mumbai or Dhaka, or already working as a care assistant in Germany while you wait for recognition, Pflegeling takes you from your first German word to the B2 level you need for full professional recognition (Berufsanerkennung). Generic language apps teach you to order coffee. Pflegeling teaches you to admit a resident, understand a doctor's orders, hand over a shift, calm a worried relative, and write a care report that stands up to scrutiny — because that is the German that gets you licensed, and the German that keeps patients safe. A COMPLETE PATH: A1 → A2 → B1 → B2 • 56 structured chapters across four CEFR levels, each built around a real workplace scenario — from introducing yourself on the ward to managing emergencies and speaking with families. • Every chapter gives you a clear explanation in your own language, a vocabulary set with audio, realistic dialogues you can replay line by line, and reading, listening, speaking and writing exercises. • Milestones mapped to your real journey: A2 for the Recognition-Partnership visa, B1 for recruitment programmes, B2 for full recognition. PREPARATION FOR THE EXAM THAT MATTERS Pflegeling prepares you for the Deutsch B1·B2 Pflege examination — the nursing German exam recognition authorities across Germany accept — and for A1 and A2 on the way there. • Exercises mirror the real exam task types: exam-style listening and reading questions, Sprachbausteine, the written Aufnahmebericht and Biografiebericht, and all three oral formats — plus the Pflegebericht you write on shift. • 8 full mock tests, two per level, under real exam timing and scored per skill — so you know you are ready before you pay the exam fee. • Speaking is scored separately, because on this exam it is the subtest that decides your certificate. AI FEEDBACK ON SPEAKING AND WRITING Record your patient conversations and handovers, write your care reports, and get detailed feedback: corrections with explanations, a level estimate per task, and concrete tips in your own language. MADE FOR YOU • Explanations in English, বাংলা (Bangla), हिन्दी (Hindi) and Tagalog — the German stays German, the support speaks your language. • Chapters, vocabulary, dialogues and audio work offline once downloaded — learn on the bus or in the break room. Writing and speaking answers are sent to Google Gemini to be graded, so those need a connection; they are saved and sent when you are back online. • Dark mode for night-shift studying, and a per-skill progress radar that shows exactly what to drill before exam day. • Clear, honest guidance about the recognition process and what each Bundesland expects. WHO PFLEGELING IS FOR • Qualified nurses abroad preparing for recruitment to Germany • Care assistants, Pflegehilfskräfte and Altenpflege staff already working in Germany • Nurses working toward Anerkennung and the B2 certificate • Nursing students planning an Ausbildung in Germany • Anyone in care who needs German for the ward, not for the café Pflege is calling.
