Course Description
It can be difficult to start learning a language as an adult, but our motivating and empathetic teachers will help you to overcome any fears or psychological hurdles you may have and enable you to use German with confidence. Your teacher will provide a supportive environment to give you the right start in your language learning journey.
In our “Goethe-Zertifikat A1: Start Deutsch 1” exam preparation course you will prepare for the exam while learning the basics of German. This exam preparation course will cover all aspects of the exam and you will become familiar with the structure of each section using materials specifically aimed at exam preparation in addition to materials on general grammar and vocabulary.
At VOX, we consider speaking the key tool you need to use and practise to successfully learn a language. Our small class sizes (3-5 people) enable you to get lots of speaking practice and individual attention to boost your confidence and make the grammar stick. Accurate pronunciation is a vital ingredient of smooth communication. Your teacher will help you learn to accurately pronounce German sounds that are new to you. At the end of the course you will be excellently prepared and be able to sit your first German exam with confidence and enthusiasm.

(Translated by Google) I'm glad I chose a B2 German course with the VOX language school; I'm simply satisfied with it. It's worth paying a little more, but the quality is good...👍👍 (Original) Ich bin froh, dass ich mit der VOX Sprachschule einen B2 Deutschkurs entschieden habe, mit der bin ich einfach zufrieden. Es lont sich ein bisschen mehr bezahlen aber gute Qualität…👍👍
(Translated by Google) About eight months ago, I had the pleasure of studying with Olga Chincholle. She's a fantastic teacher who truly cares about her students. Evgenia Golandskaya, who organized everything, was also fantastic! They both made my time there a positive experience. I thank them both sincerely! (Original) Vor etwa 8 Monaten hatte ich das Vergnügen, unter Olga Chincholle zu lernen. Sie ist eine grossartige Lehrerin, die sich wirklich um ihre Schüler kümmert. Auch Evgenia Golandskaya, die alles organisiert hat, war fantastisch! Beide haben meine Zeit dort zu einer positiven Erfahrung gemacht. Ich danke ihnen beiden herzlich!
Ruben has been an outstanding teacher
(Translated by Google) The Vox Language School is fantastic! It was my best language learning experience so far. I took my B1 German course and private lessons at the Winterthur location. My teacher was Olga, and she is now my absolute favorite! The lessons were well-structured and always fun. Learning languages isn't easy, but Olga made it easy and interesting for me. Many thanks to VOX and Olga! (Original) Die Vox Sprachschule ist fantastisch! Das war bis jetzt meine beste Erfahrung beim Sprachenlernen. Ich habe meinen B1-Deutsch-Kurs und Privatunterricht am Standort Winterthur gemacht. Meine Lehrerin war Olga, sie ist jetzt meine absolute Lieblingslehrerin! Der Unterricht war gut strukturiert und hat immer Spaß gemacht. Sprachenlernen ist nicht einfach, aber Olga hat es für mich leicht und interessant gemacht. Vielen Dank an VOX und an Olga!
Very good language school.
Very positive experience, I could see a clear improvement of my german level after doing the A2 course. Very competent teachers and a strong focus on speaking which is the best way to fill confident in actually speaking the language. I recommend!
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

Mariia Fedorova is the best teacher! She is so kind and friendly! Absolutely recommend the VOX school and my lovely teacher Maria☺️

Thank you Vox Sprachschule for handling all my enquiries promptly and professionally. I have really enjoyed my online German lessons with Valentina. The lessons are always fun, the content relevant and the grammar has been so clearly explained and summarised!
Took A2&B1 course with Isabelle. She removed my mentale blockage towards German language. Thank you Isabelle! You change my perspective.
