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.

(Translated by Google) I really love VOX! 😍 Especially our teacher, Priska! 🫶🏻 It's so easy to learn a new language at this school because it's not just about memorizing rules, but also about lots of speaking practice. After two months, I feel comfortable speaking German with native speakers. Every lesson is incredibly interesting and insightful because we discuss lots of entertaining topics and learn so much about the language. I'm really happy with VOX! 🙏🏽 (Original) VOX gefällt mir wirklich sehr!😍Besonders unsere Lehrerin - Priska!🫶🏻 Mann kann in dieser Schule sehr einfach eine neue Sprache lernen, weil es nicht nur Regeln lernen gibt, aber viel Sprechübungen. Nach 2 Monaten kann ich mich wohl fühlen, wenn ich Deutsch mit Muttersprachlern spreche. Jeder Unterricht ist mega interessant und aufschlussreich, weil wir viele unterhaltende Themen diskutieren und viele neue über die Sprache lernen. Ich bin ja sehr zufrieden mit VOX🙏🏽
(Translated by Google) I had a really good experience with VOX Language School. I attended a B2 English course to prepare for the Cambridge First exam. My teacher (Tatiana) did an excellent job. The classes were held in small groups, which I really appreciated. In addition to the course homework, she also gave me extra homework to prepare for the exam, which I found very helpful. I will definitely take another course at VOX. Regards, Nils (Original) Ich habe wirklich gute Erfahrung gemacht mit VOX-Sprachschule, ich besuchte einen B2 Englisch Kurs, um mich auf das Cambridge First vorzubereiten. Meine Lehrerin (Tatiana) machte einen ausgezeichneten Job. Der Unterricht fand in kleinen Gruppen statt, was mir wirklich sehr gefiel. Neben den Hausaufgaben des Kurses gab sie mir auch noch Hausaufgaben für die Prüfungsvorbereitung, was ich sehr gut fand. Ich werde sicher wieder einmal einen Kurs bei VOX besuchen gruss Nils
I came to this school with 0 knowledge of German. I was very nervous at the beginning but the teachers at this school are so welcoming and really make you feel at ease. I especially find Christina's teaching approach really great and feel Ive learnt so much in her classes (both private and joint classes). I couldn't recommend this school enough!
I couldn't be happier with my A1 online German course with VOX! The team has been enormously professional and responsive, providing great support all through the course. And my instructor, Maria...WOW!! As a former educator, I've been extremely impressed by her level of knowledge AND her ability to explain every single question clearly and completely. Maria is a seriously talented German teacher--ask for her, though I'm sure VOX has a full team of great teachers to offer. FIVE GOLD STARS for my A1 German course with VOX. Would give more if possible!
The course is going very well, Olga is a great teacher. I'm generally quite happy with the online option, although I prefer face to face. Olga adapts to my needs, corrects my errors spotting. She does her job well and I am making progress.
(Translated by Google) I am very satisfied with the course at the Vox school. They have excellent instructors who are always very helpful and help you reach your goal very quickly. (Original) Ich bin sehr zufrieden mit dem Kurs an der Vox-Schule. Sie haben hervorragende Dozenten, die immer sehr hilfsbereit sind und einen sehr schnell ans Ziel bringen.
Had the best learning experience here! Was very lucky to be assigned to class of 2 students (including me) and have Kenny as my teacher here for my A1 class who make each class so fun and not as hard as i thought (not to mention he studies linguistic and multiple languange too, so he's super knowledgable and knows how to explain things from different POV of languanges). Location of the school is very strategic, only 7-8 mins walking distance from station. Classroom always tidy and nice. Love!
Great teachers
After a few courses at VOX, studying German, I can only recommend it for: 1) the quality / professionalism of the teaching (always prepared, hand-outs if necessary, follow-ups over email if a class is missed and topics / words / concepts promptly addressed the following lessons); 2) flexibility of the teaching and administration; 3) small class size (one of my main selection criteria) which allows for a good practice / feedback for all students; 4) convenient location close to HB (which was a big plus when you are trying to strike a balance with work and other chores). Both teachers I had so far (Coralie and Larissa) were extremely helpful, accurate and kind and helped me moved towards my goals.
(Translated by Google) I took an A2 German course via videoconference because I found it convenient. There were between 3 and 4 students in the group, which made it easy to ask questions and get personalized advice. (Original) J'ai suivi un cours de A2 Allemand en vidéoconférence car je trouvais ça pratique. Nous étions entre 3 et 4 élèves dans le groupe ce qui permet de facilement poser des questions et d'avoir des conseils personnalisés.
