Course Description
The Cambridge B1 Preliminary (formerly known as PET) shows that you have mastered the basics of English and are now an independent (or intermediate) user of English and the exam is internationally recognised.
In this exam preparation class you will work towards improving your English level alongside targeted exam preparation covering all sections of the exam. Having the correct level is often not enough in a language exam; you also need to know the format and the type of activities and questions. Your teacher will guide you through all sections and help you develop strategies for tackling the exam.
At VOX, our main focus is speaking, which will help the grammar and vocabulary to sink in and give you confidence using spoken English. Our small class sizes (3-5) guarantee you plenty of speaking practice and individual feedback on your progress. Of course, your teacher will not neglect the other skills: listening, reading and writing.

My A1 French course at school "VOX Sprachschule" is coming to an end and I couldn't be more satisfied with the experience. The course was well-structured, and the learning environment was both supportive and engaging. I would like to express my special gratitude to our teacher, Oksana, who is not only highly knowledgeable but also incredibly patient and encouraging. She made learning French enjoyable and accessible, even for beginners like myself. I highly recommend "VOX Sprachschule" to anyone looking to learn any language on-site or online. The head of the school and course managers are always in contact and constantly make an afforts to find the most suitable solutions for you. Thank you, VOX!
I took German lessons with Ruben. Although I was only able to attend the lessons for a short time, I think I made significant progress. Ruben was very supportive and made the class enjoyable and efficient. He helped me a lot to adapt to the class and constantly tried to adapt the course to everyone's needs.
Great experience. Teachers are way above any expectation and teaching method is simple effective. Merci
I have tried other schools before but I felt confident to start speaking in Vox-Sprachschule lessons. I really took advantage of the learning time trying to comunicate in German. That was possible thanks to Polina, an amazing teacher, super dinamic, with strong focus on speaking and without loosing the joy and fun while learning. Also the school is very flexible to attend students needs. Unspected, i needed to change shifts and there was an option so they solved it really fast. I would really like to continue my learning there!
I have taken two classes with Isabel - b1 and b2 German and i have been very happy with both. She’s an excellent and compassionate teacher. I like the emphasis on communication - reading, writing and speaking. I like the online format, and the teaching materials. I‘ve learned a lot and will consider a Vox class when I continue.
I attended a private A2 German course online and never had any kind of issue. Teacher (Yana) was very professional and always available for the explanations. I learned a lot attending that course. Likely I'll start another course afther the sommer break.
It was a pleasure working with VOX. The teachers were wonderful, as was Aida and Thea in helping to organize the schedules (and everything else!) I’ve tried a few language courses, and none were as accommodating and effective as VOX has been for me. I would absolutely recommend them!
(Translated by Google) It is a great pleasure working with Yves. His knowledge and ability to answer all questions give me confidence. I am now motivated to learn German again. Thank you very much, Yves. (Original) Es ist mir eine grosse Freude, mit Yves zu arbeiten. Sein Wissen und seine Fähigkeit, alle Fragen zu beantworten, geben mir Selbstvertrauen. Ich bin jetzt wieder motiviert, Deutsch zu lernen. Vielen Dank, Yves.
I took B1 course and the atmosphere was really good and our teacher was very kind. I enjoyed this class very much. Small group worked very good to me.
I’ve had a great experience with my online German lessons, largely thanks to my teacher, Sara. In addition to being multilingual, she has a very well-structured approach to teaching that makes each lesson clear and effective. She skillfully draws associations with other languages to ensure new concepts are easy to understand. The pace of the lessons is well balanced, and the homework is always relevant and helpful for reinforcing what we’ve covered. As I’m coming to the end of my current lesson package, I’ve already purchased another one, which says a lot about the quality of the teaching. This is the third time I’ve started learning German, and I genuinely feel that I’ve now found the right school and the right teacher to stay motivated, especially given how challenging the language can be. Sara is patient, insightful, and tech-savvy, and her notes are exceptionally neat and easy to follow, making revision straightforward. I highly recommend both VOX-Sprachschule and Sara to anyone looking to learn German.
(Translated by Google) It's very easy to understand and progressing smoothly. (Original) 大変分かりやすく順調に進捗しています。
