On B1 level at VOX, you will work towards the goal of being able to speak actively and independently, because at level B1 practically all of the grammar required for speaking freely will be completed. To achieve this, the principles of language usage on B1 level will be explained to you in a simple way using the VOX method, so that you can apply them immediately in your everyday life. We will work in a very focused and playful way on the sentence structure, declension of the nouns, declension of the adjectives, verb conjugation, Konjunktiv II, tenses and prepositions so that you can master these topics perfectly by the end of the course.

Course Description
If you are ready to sit your first intermediate level exam for German, then this course is for you. This course is also perfect for those who want to gain Swiss citizenship and need to prove that they have B1-level speaking skills or for your C-permit.
In this course, you will progress from a basic to an independent user of German and you will be able to deal with most daily situations in German. Your experienced teacher will help you to improve your language skills and also develop strategies for tackling the different parts of the exam. Our classes are small (3-5 people). This small size means your teacher can adapt to you and your needs. This exam preparation course will cover all parts of the exam: reading comprehension, listening comprehension, language elements (vocabulary and grammar), writing and, naturally, VOX’s specialty, speaking, and will familiarise you with the structure of each section. By using Telc-specific exam preparation materials you will be fully prepared for the exam by the end of the course.

Great experience. Followed the B1 German course during Corona time and I am impressed by the flexibility of the school and the teacher Priska. The general quality of the course is very good and very personal. Priska is a great teacher - and will definitely recommend her and Vox schule! Thanks! Pieter Laban
I took the online classes and I’m extremely satisfied with the way the classes are organised. Would highly recommend Nora Wilhelm as a teacher.
I am currently doing a B2 German course with 3 other students online. All the other courses I have done in other schools have been in much larger groups. I feel that the course is more tailored to us as individuals and I’m learning more as a result. Agi is an excellent teacher! She explains everything clearly, allows us to practise and corrects our mistakes without destroying confidence. This has been perfect for me as a refresher course but you would have to be motivated to do extra homework if everything were new as the speed is quite fast. I am finally getting to grips with cases and am slowly learning to speak with fewer grammatical errors. I would highly recommend Vox to those who want to learn quickly and want to improve their speaking ability.
Professional service, excellent teacher! Strongly recommend
After living about 10 years in Switzerland and having tried many different language schools, i have finally found a place to hone my German and Swiss German skills. Quite logical teaching method appeals to human brain memorization mechanisms, making language learning so natural, as it used to be with oneself's mother tongue in childhood time. The method is based upon academical linguistic education, as well as personal experience (bilingualism) of the school founder. Many thanks and greetings to Igor!
I am taking an A2 class and I can see that I am making good progress. The teacher (Yvonne) always comes to class well-prepared, and she explains things clearly. Our homework is corrected carefully with helpful comments. I also enjoy the small class size and the interactions with other students. Overall, a terrific course!
I just finished the semi intensive German A2 course with Yana Antonova. Yana is a great teacher and I loved her style of teaching. She is professional, patient, explains well and makes lessons as interesting and fun as possible for all. We had a group of four that gave all of us plenty of time to practice and ask questions. Lessons were moderated very well by Yana. I highly recommend her.
This is an amazing experience ☺ I participated in german B2 and now on C1 level. My teacher, Priska, is very good at understanding individual strengths and needs and adapts the lesson accordingly, no matter if in a group or private lesson context. The tempo is intense with homework in between the lessons. The upside is the great progress that you feel which comes in a short period of time. The school is so great that it makes me want to continue studying more languages once I'm happy with my German ☺
(Translated by Google) I am very satisfied with the language course - the teachers are very professional and I was able to greatly improve my English skills as a result. Thank you! (Original) Bin sehr zufrieden mit dem Sprachkurs - Die Leher sind sehr professionell und ich konnte meine Englischkenntnisse dadurch stark verbessern. Vielen Dank!

(Translated by Google) In addition to a central location and a motivated and qualified team, Vox offers a results-based method that quickly leads to speaking. This approach was new to me as a teacher and as a student and immediately impressed me. (Original) Neben einem zentralen Standort und einem motivierten und qualifizierten Team, bietet Vox eine ergebnisbezogene Methode, welche schnell zum Sprechen führt. Dieser Ansatz war für mich als Lehrer sowie als Schüler neu und hat mich auf Anhieb begeistert.
I understand the language way better than before because my teacher could explain why things were the way they were . I’ve had a lot of experience with teachers just Saying: “ it’s just that way.” But here that was not the case. I really enjoyed the lessons. Thank you Elena
