On B1 level at VOX, you will work towards the goal of being able to speak actively and independently, because at level B1 practically all of the grammar required for speaking freely will be completed. To achieve this, the principles of language usage on B1 level will be explained to you in a simple way using the VOX method, so that you can apply them immediately in your everyday life. We will work in a very focused and playful way on the sentence structure, declension of the nouns, declension of the adjectives, verb conjugation, Konjunktiv II, tenses and prepositions so that you can master these topics perfectly by the end of the course.

Course Description
If you are ready to sit your first intermediate level exam for German, then this course is for you. This course is also perfect for those who want to gain Swiss citizenship and need to prove that they have B1-level speaking skills or for your C-permit.
In this course, you will progress from a basic to an independent user of German and you will be able to deal with most daily situations in German. Your experienced teacher will help you to improve your language skills and also develop strategies for tackling the different parts of the exam. Our classes are small (3-5 people). This small size means your teacher can adapt to you and your needs. 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, and will familiarise you with the structure of each section. By using Telc-specific exam preparation materials you will be fully prepared for the exam by the end of the course.

It was a wonderful experience!
(Translated by Google) Registration and planning at the Vox language school in Winterthur was completely straightforward – very professional and well-organized. I'd especially like to commend my teacher, Vera: she's not only incredibly friendly but also unbelievably dedicated. 🫶🏽 She explains things patiently and clearly, takes time for questions even outside of official class hours, and shares engaging exercises and additional materials via chat. I'm very grateful for my significant learning progress and would gladly return anytime, preferably with Vera again! 🙏 (Original) Die Anmeldung und Planung bei der Vox Sprachschule in Winterthur verlief völlig unkompliziert – sehr professionell und gut organisiert. Besonders hervorheben möchte ich meine Lehrperson Vera: Sie ist nicht nur ausgesprochen sympathisch, sondern auch unglaublich engagiert. 🫶🏽 Sie erklärt geduldig und verständlich, nimmt sich auch ausserhalb der offiziellen Unterrichtszeit Zeit für Fragen und teilt spannende Übungen und Zusatzmaterial über den Chat. Ich bin sehr dankbar für den grossen Lernerfolg und komme jederzeit gerne wieder am liebsten wieder mit Vera! 🙏
I have taken two classes with Isabel - b1 and b2 German and i have been very happy with both. She’s an excellent and compassionate teacher. I like the emphasis on communication - reading, writing and speaking. I like the online format, and the teaching materials. I‘ve learned a lot and will consider a Vox class when I continue.
Very professional and individual approach to the students
I couldn't be happier with my A1 online German course with VOX! The team has been enormously professional and responsive, providing great support all through the course. And my instructor, Maria...WOW!! As a former educator, I've been extremely impressed by her level of knowledge AND her ability to explain every single question clearly and completely. Maria is a seriously talented German teacher--ask for her, though I'm sure VOX has a full team of great teachers to offer. FIVE GOLD STARS for my A1 German course with VOX. Would give more if possible!
Its a great school. I am taking A2 with Sabrina intensive course. Sabrina is truly a great teacher, she is super patient, explains very well and really loves teaching. Totally recommend it!!
I had my lesson with Elly and she was super patient and help us to get us the AHA moment when comes to learning German. I especially enjoyed her lesson because we are not allow to speak english (most time) during her lesson, which helped us tremendously on german speaking skill 🤩🥰 really hope I can come back to her lesson at some point😭❤️🔥
The best of its kind in Zürich - if not Switzerland! Amazing staff.
Great experience. Anna is a very thoughtful teacher .Her lessons were engaging, useful, and she was very patient.Always encouraging her students to try. I would highly recommend
(Translated by Google) I've been attending VOX-Sprachschule for a while now, and I have to say the lessons are exceptional. For the price, it's definitely worth it. I recommend it to anyone who wants to learn languages well, especially German. (Original) È da un po' di tempo che sto frequentando la VOX-Sprachschule e devo dire che le lezioni sono eccezionali. Per quanto riguarda al prezzo ne vale veramente la pena. La consiglio a chi vorrebbe imparare bene le lingue, sopprattutto il tedesco.
