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.

We were in a small group (3 students), our teacher Michael is very patient and adapts to the class' skills and knowledge. The rythm is good, it's not boring, we had fun during the classes, and I feel I made real progress.
(Translated by Google) When I started learning German in January of this year, I met a teacher who wasn't very happy with him at first. After a few lessons with Maxi, I realized that he had a different way of teaching. He didn't stick to the examples in the book, he wanted to explain it to us in a more practical way so that we would think about it. A very good teacher but strict, it requires us to always be active. In other words, it's great for us students. I finished the B1 course with him. Thanks Max. "I think the online lessons are good, you should have them as part of the regular offer. I would also like to do the lessons from home in the future. I have seen a lot of teachers and schools and Olga is perfect for me. Olga looks at what we all need separately and adapts to our individual wishes and that is unique. Olga is very hard-working and responds to our opinions." (Original) Als ich im Januar dieses Jahres anfing, Deutsch zu lernen, traf ich einen Lehrer, der anfangs nicht sehr zufrieden mit ihm war. Nach ein paar Stunden mit Maxi wurde mir klar, dass er eine andere Art zu unterrichten hatte. Er hielt sich nicht an die Beispiele im Buch, er wollte es uns praktischer erklären, damit wir darüber nachdenken. Ein sehr guter Lehrer, aber streng, es erfordert, dass wir immer aktiv sind. Mit anderen Worten, es ist großartig für uns Schüler. Ich habe den B1-Kurs mit ihm beendet. Danke Max. "Den Online- Unterricht finde ich gut, ihr solltet das im festen Angebot haben. Ich würde den Unterricht in Zukunft auch von zu Hause aus machen wollen. Ich habe viele Lehrer und Schulen gesehen und Olga ist perfekt für mich. Olga schaut, was wir alle separat brauchen und passt sich unseren individuellen Wünschen an und das ist einzigartig. Olga ist sehr fleissig und geht auf unsere Meinungen ein."
I had a very good experience with Aida who helped me to find the right course for me, and Silvan as a fantastic teacher for private Swiss German classes on zoom! Very friendly and professional.
(Translated by Google) The Vox language school always tried to respond to my needs and wishes. Ms. Houria Merrad, my French teacher, was very professional and encouraged me to carry on even when things got difficult - with complete success. Always my pleasure! (Original) Die Vox-Sprachschule hat sich stehts bemüht auf meine Bedürfnisse & Wünsche einzugehen. Frau Houria Merrad meine Französisch Lehrerin war sehr professionel und hat mich auch wenns schwierig wurde - stehts aufgemuntert weiterzumachen - mit vollem Erfolg. Immer wieder gerne!
Language learning at Vox has been a great experience. They are very flexible and responsive and always tried to tailor lessons to fit and grow my actual abilities.
(Translated by Google) I completed an online one-on-one English course at level B2 and am very satisfied. Communication with the teacher is very easy, and I benefited immensely. The school is very professional, and the course has a logical structure and good materials. Very motivating. Thanks to the VOX language school! (Original) Habe einen Online Einzel-Kurs absolviert in Englisch Level B2 und bin sehr zufrieden. Die Kommunikation mit der Lehrerin ist sehr einfach und ich habe extrem profitiert. Die Schule arbeitet sehr professionell und der Kurs hat einen logischen Aufbau und gute Schulmaterialien. Sehr motivierend. Danke an die VOX Sprachschule!
(Translated by Google) Professional and dedicated teachers and a generally pleasant atmosphere. Highly recommended! (Original) Professionelle und engatierte Lehrer*innen und allgemein eine angenehme Atmosphäre. Nur zu empfehlen!
VOX in general is very well organized and professional. The Zürich location is convenient near the main train station. My teacher Miriam is a wonderful instructor and I can see that she is planning the lessons around what I understand vs. what I need to work on more. She gives the lessons in 100% German and makes everything very clear, explaining in English only if I really don't understand something. I also appreciate that she asks me what I'd prefer to learn about, helps me with pronunciation, recommends videos to watch and books to read, and she has created special worksheets just for me. I could not imagine a better instructor.
Very good results and a great customer service. Will attend future courses.
Very profissional staff and teachers. The classes are fun and the pace is just right.
I felt so good with the school that I just can't go without leaving a big thank you! Manager is very friendly and helpful, I explained my situation and he quickly found what I need and even gave me useful tips! Everything was super fast, I felt like a VIP customer here. More over, I had a free trial lesson with Camille, who is an increadibly competent teacher, ( being a teacher in high school I can really say a word) and in one hour I discovered new vocabulary, practised listening and speaking in french and she shared material so I can repeat at home. Huge respect and gratitude! Sincerely recommended school!
