Course Description
By passing the Cambridge B2 First, formerly Cambridge English: First (FCE) you demonstrate your ability to work and live independently in an English-speaking country. At this level you are able to communicate effectively in most face-to-face situations in an English-speaking environment and attend courses in English. You can follow the news and write different types of texts. The Cambridge B2 First exam is also internationally accepted for many tertiary courses in English-speaking countries.
You will build on your English knowledge in class through varied activities using learning materials specially designed for exam preparation. You will develop effective strategies to help you tackle all sections of the exam with confidence. You will regularly write new texts to improve your writing style which will help you reach your academic and professional goals while getting ample speaking practice to boost your ability to discuss a wide variety of topics in a more nuanced fashion. Our groups at VOX are small (2-5 people) so your teacher will be able to adapt to any specific needs and requests you may have. By the end of the course you will be excellently prepared to sit the B2 First with confidence.

Enrolled on the intensive German course and it has been great fun. Learnt a lot more quickly than I was expecting. The small class format and focus on speaking has really made a difference. The teacher Ruben has been great and is always able to explain concepts in a way that make them more understandable and helps with learning. Definitely recommend Vox Sprachschule for anyone wanting to learn German.
(Translated by Google) Very professional...the teacher is very nice and not far from Zurich main station. I highly recommend it! 👍🏻 (Original) Sehr professionell......die Lehrerin ist sehr nette und nicht weit weg vom Zürich HB. Das kann ich weiter empfehlen! 👍🏻
(Translated by Google) A modern, "crisp", dynamic, flexible and very friendly school where teaching and working with the teams behind the scenes is enormous fun! A great place to work that I can definitely recommend. (Original) Eine moderne, "knackige", dynamische, flexible und sehr sympathische Schule, an der das Unterrichten und die Zusammenarbeit mit den Teams hinter den Kulissen enormen Spass macht! Ein toller Arbeitsplatz, den ich auf jeden Fall weiterempfehlen kann.
I love the teachers but wish for flexible lesson schedules
(Translated by Google) I took an individual course in French to prepare myself optimally for my bilingual studies. My teacher Alex was very friendly, competent and motivating! Unfortunately, due to the change of residence, the course duration was limited to 8 weeks - otherwise I would have liked to continue! (Original) Ich hatte einen Individualkurs in Französisch, um mich optimal für mein zweisprachiges Studium vorzubereiten. Mein Lehrer Alex war sehr freundlich, kompetent und motivierend! Durch den Wohnortwechsel war die Kurszeit leider auf 8 Wochen beschränkt - sonst hätte ich gerne weitergemacht!
Very good online course with an excellent teacher. Even at my age it was possible to learn German. :)
(Translated by Google) Entertaining and recommended lessons with a focus on verbal communication. Both the teachers and the course managers were always very courteous and helpful. (Original) Unterhaltsamer und empfehlenswerter Unterricht mit Fokus auf die verbale Kommunikation. Sowohl die Lehrpersonen, als auch die Kurs-Managerinnen waren immer sehr zuvorkommenden und hilfreich.
Larissa was great. Patient and explained grammar concepts very well :)
I took a month long intensive B1 German course at VOX and it was the best experience I have had so far in my German learning! The class was small and personalised in a very convenient location in downtown Zurich. My teacher, Suzannah Higgs, was knowledgable, engaging and truly cared about my progression. I really noticed a difference in my level of comprehension and speech by the end of the course. I couldn't recommend it enough!
I initially selected VOX from among a handful of recommended language schools in Zurich because of its broad course offering. But I’ve stayed with VOX because of my incredible teacher, Isabelle. She took me from having absolutely zero knowledge of the German language to passing my A1 exam (which I needed as a condition of my visa to remain in Switzerland) in three months during our small group A1 course (which covered all of A1 and included supplementary test prep material). After completing this group course, I have continued taking individual lessons with Isabelle, completing A2, and am currently working through B1. I would highly recommend VOX, especially Isabelle – she is incredibly professional, has a very effective teaching method, and is patient but also knows when to push you ahead.
(Translated by Google) An excellent place to learn, very kind and professional people who provide you with all the necessary support, a very good option without a doubt! (Original) Un lugar excelente para aprender, personas muy amables y profesionales que te brindan todo el apoyo necesario, una muy buena opciĂłn sin duda alguna!
My wife and I took online private lessons at Vox. Our sole aim was to pass the B1 Goethe test in all modules. Yvonne Vogt was our teacher and she was simply brilliant! Yvonne ordered the right materials for us starting from the textbooks to exercises to model exams. She even conducted mock exams for us on the hearing and speaking modules. Both my wife and I passed all modules with high scores. Thank you Yvonne and Vox!
