I have done my A1 and A2 language courses with Yana. She is a very professional teacher and I learned a lot thanks to her. Great learning experience!
Switzerland is a country of service and VOX School shows exactly why. The teachers and coordinators are very professional and generally care about their students' learning experience. The smaller groups make the classes more personal, as if having a private tutor. After taking 3 courses here, I can confidently say that it was the best choice I made.
Learning A1 German at Vox has been very positive experience. They are very flexible, accommodative and their teachers are passionate about what they do. I have enjoyed very embarking on this challenging journey of learning German with Vox. They definitely made it easier
(Translated by Google) A relaxed and informal atmosphere, a very high-quality teacher, and a small class size for optimal learning. I'm already looking forward to the next lesson. Highly recommended! (Original) entspannte und ungezwungene Atmosphäre, qualitativ sehr gute Lehrerin, kleine Klasse für optimalen Lerneffekt. Ich freue mich schon auf die nächste Lektion. Sehr zu empfehlen!
(Translated by Google) Very helpful, very friendly and the learning material is great. (Original) Sehr hilfsbereich, sehr freundlich und lernstoff ist supper.
I am currently in the A2 German course at VOX. I am extremely happy with their services. The class I am in has 4 people which makes each lesson feel like private or semi-private. My teacher Isabelle is fantastic. She pushes us to only speak in German throughout the lesson which I can tell has boosted my grammar and speaking abilities. She makes each class interactive by explaining the theory and then letting us put it into practice, there is a lot of emphasis on speaking. I truly appreciate her teaching style and the confidence VOX has given me to speak more German in my everyday life.
I’m very happy with VOX. I’ve completed my A2 and B1 German courses here, and I’m currently doing B2. I really like the way the classes are conducted. It’s not just about doing exercises in a book there’s a strong focus on conversation and discussing topics that interest the students. I’d especially like to mention Priska. She’s an excellent teacher who prepares all her lessons with care, always answers our questions, helps us, and teaches in the best possible way. I will definitely continue taking my courses here ☺️
Very good language school.
Had such a good experience with VOX. I e-mailed them very last-minute and they were able to get me in to lessons extremely quickly and were very prompt in their replies. My teacher, Isabelle, has been amazing - I have progressed extremely quickly under her guidance, and have had a great deal of fun doing it. I would wholeheartedly and enthusiastically recommend her and VOX.
I honestly have to say I’m truly satisfied by the course you are providing. Cristina is a highly professional teacher and she really cares about our improvements. She is always at your disposal for any request and despite the limited time available she does manage to organize the lessons in order to cover both theory and practice. In addition, I think there is a perfect balancing of homework load, always with a view to the achievements of the objectives required to prepare for the A1 exam.
My learning experience at Vox Sprach Schule with Mr. Björn as my teacher has been extremely positive to date. Within a short timeframe, I have increased my knowledge towards new vocabulary and gained a good understanding of constructing the German grammar. As a result, I am more confident to communicate in public. Equally, I understand more of what I read and hear too. Mr. Björn is always very well prepared, organised and focused. His teaching style is methodical and presented with a lot of attention to detail. He provides me a wide range of solutions, “tips and tricks” to memorise new words, alternative words, and explains different ways on how to best apply them. He does a lot of repetition and provides a lot of examples in the class to make sure that I have thoroughly understood the syllables before moving on to the next lesson. Above all, he does extensive helpful notes which are customised and prepared simultaneously during each class. I receive these notes shortly after every class, and they help me to study at home. The atmosphere in the class is very friendly and comfortable. Although I was nervous at first, I am very relaxed with my learning experience and look forward to attend each class with much enthusiasm. Vox Sprach Schule is very well located and maintained to high standards. The administration team has been extremely helpful and flexible towards accommodating my requests in order to ensure my learning experience is productive. I sincerely appreciate, and thank Vox Sprach Schule for placing Mr. Björn as my German teacher as I gave progressed a lot under his guidance. I look forward to continue my education with the same team and highly recommend them to anyone looking to learn a new language in Switzerland. D.A Pollocks Student.

Thanks to his clear explanations, patience, and motivating teaching methods, I was able to successfully pass the B1 exam.

Best regards, Mateusz Gradomski (Original) Mark Di Grazia – meine Empfehlung Ich möchte meine tiefe Wertschätzung für Mark Di Grazia zum Ausdruck bringen.
