Sprachkurse in Zürich, Winterthur und Online

I've had the opportunity to learn German A2 at Vox from May until August. My teacher Frau Jefremova was amazing, always punctual, well-prepared, and encouraged asking questions. It was a fun learning experience, done in an absolutely professional yet friendly and respectful environment. The focus on spoken part of language during the lessons actually took away the fear of speaking in public. Rest of the staff at school were also always willing to help and guide in matters of communication and information. Would definitely consider continuing further learning at Vox.

(Translated by Google) I really liked the course. Our teacher Leah responded very well to our goals and needs and managed to reconcile them. I made the most progress in speaking. The many conversations during the lessons have enabled me to speak more fluently and have expanded my active vocabulary. With Leah we often looked at the origin of words, the exact meaning and the “area of ​​use” of new words, which made it much easier for me to remember and understand them. Leah's attentive and personable way of teaching suited me very well. I would go to her class again in a heartbeat. I can't immediately think of anything that could have been done better, except perhaps that we didn't receive the books until the middle of the course, which firstly wasn't your fault and secondly wasn't that much of a problem. Leah managed it great :) (Original) Der Kurs hat mir richtig gut gefallen. Unsere Lehrerin Leah ist super auf unsere Ziele und Bedürfnisse eingegangen und hat es geschafft diese unter einen Hut zu bringen. Den grössten Fortschritt habe ich beim Sprechen gemacht. Die vielen Unterhaltungen während den Lektionen haben es mir ermöglicht nun einiges fliessender sprechen zu können und hat meinen aktiven Wortschatz erweitert. Wir haben mit Leah oft die Wortherkunft, die genaue Bedeutung und den „Verwendungsbereich“ von neuen Vokabeln angeschaut, was es mir enorm erleichtert hat mir diese zu merken und zu verstehen. Leahs aufmerksame und sympathische Art zu unterrichten hat sehr gut zu mir gepasst. Ich würde sofort wieder zu ihr in den Unterricht gehen. Gerade spontan kommt mir nichts in den Sinn, das man hätte besser machen können, ausser vielleicht dass wir die Bücher erst Mitte des Kurses erhalten haben, was erstens nicht euer Fehler war und zweitens gar nicht so gestört hat. Leah hat das super gemanagt :)

(Translated by Google) I attended a "super-intensive" online course. My French teacher, Sébastien, made the lessons very varied and exciting. I was able to ask questions about any grammar or vocabulary topic, which Sébastien then reviewed and explained clearly. I also found the small talk in French with Sébastien very helpful and enjoyable. I was able to learn a lot and will be taking the DALF C1 exam in about six weeks. The free trial lesson with teacher Nathalie in Winterthur also impressed me, and I also found the location of the school very good. The only thing I have to criticize was the organization until I could find a French group course at C1 level. Although the administration staff were all friendly, I originally wanted to attend a group course in Winterthur starting in mid-August, but sometimes only received an email response about once a week, so I ended up attending an online course starting in early September. In retrospect, I also found it very good online because the lessons themselves were extremely informative. That's why I would still like to take another course at the Vox language school. :) (Original) Ich habe einen „super-intensiven“ Onlinekurs besucht. Mein Französisch-Lehrer Sébastien hat den Unterricht sehr abwechslungsreich und spannend gestaltet. Ich konnte zu jedem Grammatik-Thema oder zum Wortschatz Fragen stellen und dies wurde dann gemeinsam mit Sébastien angeschaut und verständlich erklärt. Die Smalltalks auf Französisch mit Sébastien fand ich auch ganz hilfreich und angenehm. Ich konnte sehr viel lernen und werde in etwa sechs Wochen die DALF C1-Prüfung absolvieren. Die kostenlose Probelektion mit der Lehrerin Nathalie in Winterthur hat mich ebenfalls überzeugt und die Lage der Schule habe ich auch sehr gut gefunden. Das einzige, was ich etwas bemängeln muss, war die Organisation bis ein Französisch-Gruppenkurs auf C1-Niveau gefunden werden konnte. Die Mitarbeiter der Administration waren zwar alle freundlich, jedoch wollte ich ursprünglich ab Mitte August einen Gruppenkurs in Winterthur besuchen, aber bekam z. T. nur etwa einmal pro Woche eine Antwort per Mail und besuchte dann schliesslich einen Onlinekurs ab Anfang September. Im Nachhinein habe ich es online aber auch sehr gut gefunden, weil die Lektionen an sich äusserst lehrreich aufgebaut waren. Deshalb würde ich dennoch gerne wieder einen Kurs bei der Vox Sprachschule besuchen. :)

(Translated by Google) About 8 months ago I had the pleasure of studying under Olga Chincholle. She is a great teacher who really cares about her students. Evgenia Golandskaya, who organized everything, was also fantastic! Both made my time there a positive experience. I thank you both very much! (Original) Vor etwa 8 Monaten hatte ich das Vergnügen, unter Olga Chincholle zu lernen. Sie ist eine grossartige Lehrerin, die sich wirklich um ihre Schüler kümmert. Auch Evgenia Golandskaya, die alles organisiert hat, war fantastisch! Beide haben meine Zeit dort zu einer positiven Erfahrung gemacht. Ich danke ihnen beiden herzlich!

Here is my honest review of VOX Sprachschule Winterthur: I have taken two courses (B1 and B2 German) with Vox and I have had a very positive experience so far. I have recommended Vox to a close friend of mine as well. My teachers at Vox were some of the best I’ve had. Each lesson plan is organised, the class sizes are small, and the teachers are highly educated. I am currently taking B2 German with Daniel M. The lessons are organised and structured letting you know which concepts are covered. This makes it easy to look back and practice on your own. My teacher does a great job breaking down German grammar principles into simple components and explaining the rules involved in sentence structure and conversation. My language acquisition is quicker and easier thanks to this method of teaching. He pays extra attention to making sure your pronunciation is correct when speaking. This has improved my communication skills greatly. The reading, writing, and conversational exercises are very helpful. Overall this course continues to give me the tools to become fluent in German. I have previously taken B1 with VOX as well, and I was also impressed with my former teacher, Alys B.-C. We learned in a structured yet stress-free manner. It was easy to speak to my other classmates online. I appreciated the instructor's detailed notes, conversation, handouts, and written exercises. I would definitely take another Vox class again. It is worth the price. The teachers are supportive and you can e-mail them outside of class time. The school is flexible so working and learning is not a problem. The staff checks in with you to make sure your feedback about your class is taken into consideration. My understanding of German has vastly improved. My ability to read, write, and speak are much better than before. Overall Vox Sprachschule Winterthur gets a 5/5 for me.

I have loved everything about this Sprachschule, from the structure, to the teacher, to the administration. They are very quick at responding, very kind, and efficient. I have been in contact with different staff members, Ekaterina and Maria, and they have both been amazing. In addition, my teacher Yvonne is always energetic and helpful, encouraging us to speak and listening with so much patience. I am so happy to be continuing with them and would recommend it to anyone. I do feel like my German is already so much better.

(Translated by Google) I finished the German A1 course with my teacher Ruben, whom I really thank for his preparation and patience, he was able to put me at ease right away. Thanks to him I learned various notions of the German language starting from scratch, I recommend him to everyone. (Original) Ho terminato il corso di tedesco A1 con il mio insegnante Ruben, che ringrazio davvero per la preparazione e la pazienza, ha saputo mettermi a mio agio fin da subito. Grazie a lui ho appreso varie nozioni della lingua tedesca partendo da zero, lo consiglio a tutti.

I have just finished my Second Course with VOX Language school in Winterthur and I will be coming back for more in Winter 2022. Olga is a fantastic teacher working through the course at a good pace. She makes sure everyone gets a chance to talk during the class and makes a really nice atmosphere. If you are thinking of doing a course don't hesitate just book it. I highly recommend Vox.

Very good online course with an excellent teacher. Even at my age it was possible to learn German. :)

In 2022, I had a great experience in VOX-Sprachschule while doing a german course for 1 month. A small group was so good for learning and our teacher was great at teaching and very friendly.

The highest score for the teacher we had, Valentina Carlini. Thanks to his professionalism and kindness, even German is more fun. Despite being an expensive course with teachers like her, it is worth it. I would recommend her 100%.

Super! I took my German course here and it was really nice. Online lessons allow for maximum flexibility and the teacher assigned to me (Silvan) is really super helpful, he teaches very well, he is organized and kind. The school secretary (Evgenia) has also always been available to support me.
