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.

Very professional and accommodating school. Tobias in particular has been an excellent teacher for the past couple of months.
I took German lessons with Ruben. Although I was only able to attend the lessons for a short time, I think I made significant progress. Ruben was very supportive and made the class enjoyable and efficient. He helped me a lot to adapt to the class and constantly tried to adapt the course to everyone's needs.
(Translated by Google) I attended an exam preparation course with Tatiana at VOX. The course was incredibly well-structured and organized. I was able to learn a great deal in a short time. The teacher immediately recognized my strengths and weaknesses and tailored the course content accordingly. I would say it's one of the best courses I've ever taken, and I can definitely recommend the school to anyone. (Original) Ich habe bei VOX einen Prüfungsvorbereitungs-Kurs bei Tatiana besucht. Der Kurs war super strukturiert und gut organisiert. Ich konnte in kurzer Zeit sehr viel lernen. Die Lehrerin erkannte meine Stärken und Schwächen sofort und passte die Kursinhalte auch an diese an. Ich würde sagen, es ist einer der besten Kurse, den ich bisher besucht habe und ich kann die Schule auf jeden Fall jedem empfehlen.
(Translated by Google) Priska is a very good teacher! (Original) Priska ist a sehr gut lehrerin!
In 2022, I had a great experience in VOX-Sprachschule while doing a german course for 1 month. A small group was so good for learning and our teacher was great at teaching and very friendly.
Very nice school with a nice and flexible teachers :)
I highly recommend VOX! As a beginner with no previous knowledge of German I learnt a lot thanks to the very patient and professional teacher Ruben! I also liked the size of the group and the location.
Very happy with Vox. It is worth the price. We were in a small group (3 students), our teacher Michael is very patient and adapts to the class' skills and knowledge. The rythm is good, it's not boring, we had fun during the classes, and I feel I made real progress.
I had a fantastic experience learning with Lise Schaller and Sara Alves Penteado, both in-person and online for my A2 and B1 packages. Both teachers are very friendly and always make you feel comfortable. Each lesson is well-planned, curated, and offers high value for money. Sara teaches online and her notes are very clear, organised and easy to follow. Both teachers draw and use color-coding, which makes the concepts very easy to understand. If you want to get a strong understanding, it is excellent!
My experience with VOX has been incredible. I would recommend you for sure. Michael was extremely good, patient and always came prepared. If I did not understood something, he would take his time and explain again (and sometimes again) without any impatience. Thank you very much for the well planned itenarary and accommodating me in the Corona...🤔..... Times
(Translated by Google) I've been attending the C1 German course at VOX Language School for a month now and I'm very satisfied. My goal was to improve my spoken communication, and I'm already seeing significant progress in my fluency. Our teacher addresses our individual goals, and we're learning many useful expressions that are perfectly suited to our level. It's especially helpful that we get to practice speaking a lot in class. Highly recommended! (Original) Ich besuche seit einem Monat den C1-Deutschkurs bei VOX Sprachschule und bin sehr zufrieden. Mein Ziel war es, meine mündliche Kommunikation zu verbessern, und ich sehe bereits deutliche Fortschritte in meiner Sprachflüssigkeit. Unser Lehrer geht auf unsere persönlichen Ziele ein, und wir lernen viele nützliche Ausdrücke, die wirklich zum Niveau passen. Besonders hilfreich ist, dass wir im Unterricht viel sprechen können. Sehr empfehlenswert!
I'm really happy with VOX and Larissa, the lessons are engaging and fun, a lot of speaking practice and grammar. But the most important thing is they care about your experience. Definitely recommending.
