Most excellent place to learn German I have found. Good mix of teaching and speaking practice.
(Translated by Google) Last fall, I attended private French lessons for several weeks and was very satisfied with the support and preparation provided by the teacher. We structured the course very dynamically and focused on speaking. He was able to identify individual weaknesses and focus on them, while also being able to confidently and effectively answer frequently asked questions about the French language. I can definitely recommend the language school without reservation! (Original) Im letzten Herbst habe ich über mehrere Wochen Privatstunden in Französisch besucht und war mit der Betreuung und Vorbereitungs des Sprachlehrers sehr zufrieden. Wir haben den Kurs sehr dynamisch ausgestaltet und den Fokus aufs Sprechen gelegt. Dabei hat er einerseits individuelle Schwächen erkannt und darauf den Lernfokus gelegt und andererseits konnte er immer wieder auftauchende Spontanfragen zur französischen Sprache stets souverän und gut beantworten. Kann die Sprachschule auf jeden Fall uneingeschränkt weiterempfehlen!
Great school with individual approach, small groups and great teachers🤗 Loved working with our teacher Elly, really helpful and interesting classes. Definitely recommend this school!
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.
(Translated by Google) Excellent online course The French A1 course with Sébastien Pruvost was super intensive in January 2021. I learned a great deal. The course was very well structured, and Sébastien provided excellent preparation. I'm truly impressed with the progress I've made in such a short time. Reaching the entire A1 level in one month. Fantastic! (Original) Sehr guter online Kurs Der Französisch Kurs A1 superintensiv bei Sébastien Pruvost im Januar 2021. Ich habe sehr viel gelernt sehr guter Aufbau des Kurses und gute Vorbereitung von Sébastien. Bin wirklich begeistert vom Fortschritt den ich gemacht habe in der kurzen Zeit. Das ganze Niveau A1 in einem Monat. Top.

Amazing lessons, friendly and forthcoming teacher. Can only be recommended!!
My wife and I took online private lessons at Vox. Our sole aim was to pass the B1 Goethe test in all modules. Yvonne Vogt was our teacher and she was simply brilliant! Yvonne ordered the right materials for us starting from the textbooks to exercises to model exams. She even conducted mock exams for us on the hearing and speaking modules. Both my wife and I passed all modules with high scores. Thank you Yvonne and Vox!
(Translated by Google) I am very satisfied with the online German course. I am even more satisfied with the German teacher, Karl K. Dalitz; he is very competent, friendly, and explains everything very well. If I need another German course in the future, I would gladly take it with Karl K. Dalitz again. Thank you very much. (Original) Ich bin sehr zufrieden mit dem Deutschonlinekurs. Ich bin noch mehr zufrieden mit dem Deutchlehrer Karl K. Dalitz,er ist sehr kompetent,freundlich,erklärt alles sehr gut.Ich würde später gerne wenn ich nochmals einen Deutschkurs brauche wieder gerne bei Karl K.Dalitz machen. Lieben Dank
The course is going very well, Olga is a great teacher. I'm generally quite happy with the online option, although I prefer face to face. Olga adapts to my needs, corrects my errors spotting. She does her job well and I am making progress.

Many people struggle to learn English due to psychological barriers preventing them from actively speaking. At VOX-Sprachschule, we have developed a methodology that grants you the possibility to overcome whatever difficulties you may encounter when looking for the most efficient way to learn how to speak. Our teachers will constantly pay attention to your individual learning needs, which is guaranteed to make your experience at VOX-Sprachschule a success story.
Speaking is the most natural function of language. If we compare learning languages to learning an instrument, the key to success is practice - practicing playing or, in the case of languages, speaking. Once the connections between your brain and the muscles responsible for speech are established, you can create beautifully sounding sentences. At VOX-Sprachschule, you will learn to speak actively - understanding, reading, and writing will follow.
