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) About eight months ago, I had the pleasure of studying under Olga Chincholle. She is a wonderful teacher who truly cares about her students. Evgenia Golandskaya, who organized everything, was also fantastic! Both of them made my time there a positive experience. Thank you both so much!

I have just completed A1 German intensive with Ruben and I have to say, it really makes a difference when you have a teacher who is truly passionate about what they are teaching. The course felt well organised and I felt comfortable making mistakes (lots of them!) I would highly recommend this course for beginners as it gives you a great base line and understanding of how the language works. Danke Ruben & VOX

Vox Language School has an amazing philosophy when it comes to teaching and language learning. The students are in the centre of attention and their needs and wants are focused on with empathy and interest. The whole team is warm and welcoming and as a teacher I especially appreciate the recognition from my students and boss. I can definitely recommend this school to anyone - students and teachers!
(Translated by Google) Very professional... the teacher is very nice and not far from Zurich main station. I can highly recommend it! 👍🏻 (Original) Sehr professionell......die Lehrerin ist sehr nette und nicht weit weg vom Zürich HB. Das kann ich weiter empfehlen! 👍🏻
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.
The classes at Vox are absolutely amazing and a true delight. Even though I am learning online, the sessions are so interactive and fun that staying focused is easy.. I'm currently at an A2 level in German and I couldn't be happier with my progress. Anna is an incredible teacher, she is not only friendly but also brings so much energy and warmth to each class. Her lessons are always well-prepared and packed with engaging, varied exercises.
