You can practise reading and listening with a book or a podcast. Speaking needs someone who answers you in Catalan, gives you time to find your words, and tells you what to fix.
In OpiFluent, you talk out loud with Tocco, the tutor, in Catalan and at your own pace; after the conversation, he goes over your mistakes. You also get the exam's speaking tasks, to record and check against a grid.

Everything about the exam
Scoring
The marks are grouped into two blocks. Oral block (listening and speaking, 60 points): at least 40 at A1, 36 at A2. Written block (reading and writing, 40 points): at least 20 at A1, 24 at A2. At A2, speaking carries more weight than any other part.
What the exam is for
Law 6/2024 on the official language makes Catalan A1 a condition for the first renewal of the permit, and A2 for the second. It applies to people who applied for their first permit after the quota regulation came into force; the transitional period, when attending a Catalan course was enough, ended on 26 April 2026. For now, the official renewal pages require it for the salaried residence and work permit only; the law gives the Govern until 2029 to extend it to the other permits (self-employed, cross-border workers, residence without work). The announcement of the November 2026 A1 session also mentions cross-border workers: check with the Immigration Service. Andorra is not in the EU, so the rule applies whatever your nationality. No test on Andorran institutions is required for the renewal.
