The C1 level is already about the complexity of language use. The vocabulary will be massively expanded again and we will work on the ability to deal with complex communicative context in any situation of your life. If you still have gaps or uncertainties from previous levels, we will of course help you to close them in an effective and fun way.

Course Description
Our Goethe-Zertifikat C1 exam preparation course is ideal if you need to improve your German for work or in order to study in German. If you have already successfully completed B2, we would love to help you get ready for the Goethe C1 exam.
There are two main components to passing a language exam: having the right language level and being familiar with the exam format. During this course, your teacher will assist you on both fronts. You will become acquainted with every section of the exam while using exam-specific materials while also improving your language skills.
Our class sizes are very small (3-5 participants), which ensures that you teacher is able to adapt the class to your requirements. You will learn to express yourself more fluently in professional and social situations and work on developing your formal writing skills to help you at university or at work. By the end of the class you will be able to sit your exam with confidence knowing that you have prepared well.

I was taking individual classes and I had good teacher during the training. More focus on practical learning vs. overkill with grammar.
I am super happy with my experience with VOX. The online intensive three-month course has helped me greatly, and I like how small the classes are. My teacher Anna is just fantastic! Super motivating, helpful, and truly wants us to succeed on our language journey ☺️ I highly recommend VOX
The highest score for the teacher we had, Valentina Carlini. Thanks to his professionalism and kindness, even German is more fun. Despite being an expensive course with teachers like her, it is worth it. I would recommend her 100%.
As a teacher working for VOX, I could not be happier about my experience here. Teaching to single students or small groups (max five people) allows me to adapt the lessons to their goals, maximize their progress, follow them up thoroughly and establish trustworthy, effective relationships. The focus is on speaking skills, which I consider crucial to prepare the students for contexts of real communication. The team is varied, multilingual, highly motivated and supportive: the students will always find someone that can fit with their timetable and requirements. Finally, the school has a clear ambition to grow, to develop and to provide an ever-improving service. From my point of view, highly recommended for both teachers and students.
(Translated by Google) Mark Di Grazia – My Recommendation I would like to express my deep appreciation for Mark Di Grazia. Thanks to his clear explanations, patience, and motivating teaching methods, I was able to successfully pass the B1 exam. He engages with each learner and creates an atmosphere where you feel confident and comfortable speaking. I'm already looking forward to preparing for B2 with him! Best regards, Mateusz Gradomski (Original) Mark Di Grazia – meine Empfehlung Ich möchte meine tiefe Wertschätzung für Mark Di Grazia zum Ausdruck bringen. Dank seiner klaren Erklärungen, Geduld und motivierenden Unterrichtsmethoden konnte ich die B1-Prüfung erfolgreich bestehen. Er geht auf jeden Lernenden ein und schafft eine Atmosphäre, in der man sich sicher fühlt und gern spricht. Ich freue mich schon auf die Vorbereitung für B2 mit ihm! Mit herzlichen Grüßen, Mateusz Gradomski
The teachers are very competent (in my case Daniel and Marion) and the secretariat is very helpful and friendly. The school seems to be more expensive than others, but it is not because you will learn quickly.
The school has a very interesting system to teach! And the teacher Lisa follows the method very well and is an excellent teacher! She was the only one among 4 schools that I went to that finally managed to unlock me in German 💓
Had a very good learning period with Nadine! Would definitely recommend VOX-Sprachschule to anyone who would be interested to start picking up a new language in the fastest way possible!
Elly was a great and thoughtful teacher. Her emphasis on speaking was great for learning German and I’m leaving the course feeling like I learned alot. Thank you!
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!
It was a pleasure working with VOX. The teachers were wonderful, as was Aida and Thea in helping to organize the schedules (and everything else!) I’ve tried a few language courses, and none were as accommodating and effective as VOX has been for me. I would absolutely recommend them!
I am American and was on vacation when I recently took a month of biweekly B1 German classes with VOX school in Zurich. It was a LOVELY experience. I enjoyed the diversity of students, and my teacher, Isabelle, Wegmuller, was absolutely exceptional. She had very original and creative ways of presenting new material and engaging the students. She has an astounding grasp of Hoch Deutsch and a vast well of knowledge about so many different things. The time past so quickly, too quickly, and I learned a lot in just a short period of time. I highly recommend this school, and Isabelle, if you can get her. Well done, VOX and Isabelle.
