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.

I just finished the semi intensive German A2 course with Yana Antonova. Yana is a great teacher and I loved her style of teaching. She is professional, patient, explains well and makes lessons as interesting and fun as possible for all. We had a group of four that gave all of us plenty of time to practice and ask questions. Lessons were moderated very well by Yana. I highly recommend her.
(Translated by Google) Alice's lessons are great! I learn a lot and it's fun! (Original) Der Unterricht mit Alice ist super! Ich lerne viel und es macht Spass!
Ich lerne Deutsch! I am in the A1 class, which is being paid for by my employer. Thanks to VOX Sprachschule and especially to our teacher Stefan. I'm amazed by how much we have learned in just 6 weeks.
Good lecturer with excellent teaching skills which pinpointed our pronunciation / grammar / vocab mistakes whenever we are practising German conversation.
... Bonjour !! I did my private french course here. Teacher Mikaela was so kind and I learned a lots from her not only french language but also daily life situation. Owner and administration team was amazing took care and was flexible. I thinking about continue my class in the future. ...

(Translated by Google) I'm being taught by Tatiana. I'm extremely happy with her and couldn't imagine a better instructor. She explains things really well, is very patient, and encourages me. Thank you so much. (Original) Ich werde von Tatiana unterrichtet. Bin super zufrieden und könnte mir keine bessere Dozentin vorstellen. Sie erklärt es mir super, hat viel Geduld und fördert mich. Vielen Dank.
Andersen is best teacher i highly recommanded him💪🏾
I just finished my A2 course and I’m starting my B1 course today. VOX Schule is the best language school in town!! The location is very convenient. The class sizes are small and manageable. For the price you can get great discounts. The teachers are very professional and organised Shoutout to the best teacher Mr. Ruben. He’s very respectful and compassionate. His lessons were entertaining, informative and engaging. He made sure that every student understands. My German has greatly improved. Mr. Ruben Thank you so much for your great work. Thank you VOX and Ms. Aida for your help and guidance in getting the information about the courses, scheduling and the application process. It was such a great learning experience and I look forward to learning more and growing confident in speaking German.
(Translated by Google) I took a private French course to prepare myself optimally for my bilingual studies. My teacher, Alex, was very friendly, competent, and motivating! Due to my move, the course duration was unfortunately limited to eight weeks—otherwise, I would have gladly continued! (Original) Ich hatte einen Individualkurs in Französisch, um mich optimal für mein zweisprachiges Studium vorzubereiten. Mein Lehrer Alex war sehr freundlich, kompetent und motivierend! Durch den Wohnortwechsel war die Kurszeit leider auf 8 Wochen beschränkt - sonst hätte ich gerne weitergemacht!
Great teachers! Very satisfied with online course as well
I had an excellent experience completing two intensive face-to-face courses (German B1 and B2) at this school. My teachers, Alys and Florian, were outstanding; they prioritized real-life conversation—which I found incredibly helpful—while consistently challenging us to expand our vocabulary. A unique advantage here is the teachers' deep familiarity with the local Swiss German dialect and culture, allowing them to share fascinating cultural insights alongside the curriculum. With small group sizes, everyone has ample opportunity to speak and stay engaged. Highly recommended!
It was a pleasure working with VOX. The teachers were wonderful, as was Aida and Thea in helping to organize the schedules (and everything else!) I’ve tried a few language courses, and none were as accommodating and effective as VOX has been for me. I would absolutely recommend them!
