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
VOX’s Telc Deutsch C1 preparation courses are perfect for students who have successfully completed the B2 level and are looking for an extra challenge or need an official certificate for work or to gain entrance to a German-speaking university. In small groups, your teacher will help you to expand your vocabulary, particularly or formal German, hone your writing skills and communicate with confidence and nuance about complex and varied topics.
In addition to improving your German level, your teacher will fully prepare you for the exam by using exam-specific materials. 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. A large part of passing a language exam is the correct preparation and the confidence you will gain when you feel fully ready by the end of our preparation courses.

The teacher Priska is a great professional! She makes the lessons very fun, she is very patient and explains very well, I'm very happy with her. Thank you Vox Sprachschule and Aida for being so attentive to every detail and cover the needs of the students.
I took some swiss-german courses with Silvan per Zoom. It was perfect, efficient, well organised. This school has very friendly teachers. Recommanded.
(Translated by Google) The school is very professional, admittedly a bit pricey, but definitely worth the money. My B1 language teacher, Maria Fedorova, is incredibly dedicated! She explains grammar very efficiently and clearly, prioritizing the key points. She was always available to answer my questions and gave me lots of helpful tips on everyday speech. The course structure and topics are absolutely fascinating. I've really gotten excited about learning English. I highly recommend Maria! (Original) Die Schule ist sehr professionell, preislich zwar eher teurer, aber sein Geld definitiv wert. Meine Sprachlehrerin Maria Fedorova für B1 ist super engagiert! Sie erklärt Grammatik sehr effizient und klar und priorisiert. Sie war für alle meine Fragen da und gab mir viele nützliche Tipps, wie es im Alltag gesprochen wird. Kursgestaltung und Themen absolut spannend. Meine Begeisterung für‘s Englisch lernen ist entfacht. I highly recommend Maria!
Good teachers trained by Goethe Institute, regular follow-up by Sprachschule, flexibility to adapt the agenda, I am happy with the service and would recommend it
It is the best price you can get a German course in Switzerland.
(Translated by Google) Within a very short time, I learned the basics of Spanish at VOX and had a lot of fun! My teacher tailored the approach and content to my needs, which made learning a new language easier and kept my interest and motivation high. The school also boasts a very central location and great flexibility in scheduling – overall, I'm very satisfied :) (Original) Innerhalb von sehr kurzer Zeit lernte ich an der VOX die Grundzüge der spanischen Sprache und hatte dabei eine ganze Menge Spass! Meine Lehrerin hat die Vorgehensweise und Inhalte stark auf meine Bedürfnisse angepasst, was den Einstieg in eine neue Sprache einerseits erleichtert und das Interesse & Motivation hoch hält. Die Schule punktet zudem mit einem sehr zentralen Standort und hoher Flexibilität bei der Organisation der Termine - insgesamt bin ich sehr zufrieden :)
I had a German A1 course in Vox, with Yelyzaveta Berezovska as a teacher. I am very satisfied with Elly's teaching approach. She was paying attention to each student's progress and helped us overcome the difficulties that we had with the material. The classes were structured well with short repetitions of the previously learned material, then learning new material, summarising what we had learned at the end of each class, and setting homework assignments. Besides following the workbook, there were a lot of interactive exercises that Elly had prepared herself, that challenged us to practice what we had learned. Also a lot of out of the book homework in addition. I had the feeling that I was progressing after each class. The workbook "Sprachniveau A1+ Begegnungen, Deutsch als Fremdsprache" by Anne Buscha and Szilvia Szita we used in the class was structured and thought through extremely well. What I like about the school is that there is an option to visit the classes online. This is really convenient not to miss classes when traveling. The online courses worked surprisingly well, as the school classrooms are equipped for online teaching as well and Elly was making sure that you feel like you are really in the classroom. The team in Vox was really collaborative and helpful. The location of the school on Central was very convenient.
I'm currently doing a B1 online German group course and so far the experience has been really great. The teacher (Yulia) is very professional, is fully prepared for each class, makes things interesting by mixing teaching content (text book, youtube videos, poem listening) and most importantly encourages us to speak, speak, speak! Can highly recommend.
(Translated by Google) A great language school, the teachers are very knowledgeable, the staff are helpful and the teaching methods are very good. (Original) Eine Tolle Sprachschule die Lehrpersonen sind sehr Vlecksiebel , die Lehrkräfte sind hilfsbereit und die Lehrmethoden sind sehr gut.
The methodology, which is based on speaking, is very successful in the learning process. I took two levels of German at this School and I noticed quick progress. During this time I had 5 teachers and all of them were amazing!! their explanations were very clear and thanks to them, it was easier to improve my German.
Amazing experience with VOX completing A1 course in Deutsch. The teacher Joline was incredible, I would give 10 stars if I could. She is extremely patient, supportive, and always creates a comfortable learning environment where it feels safe to make mistakes and ask questions. Her lessons are well-structured, engaging, and tailored to my level and learning goals. What I appreciated most is how clearly she explains grammar and provide practical examples that make it easier to understand and remember. She also really encourages speaking practice, which helped me gain confidence and improve my standard that much faster. Overall, I highly recommend this teacher to anyone looking for a professional, motivating, and friendly German language instructor.
