Last spring I enrolled to the B1 German course in a team of five and Alexander Lips as our teacher. I am very happy with my decision and I can definitely recommend it. Alexander is a great teacher with a lot of knowledge and experience. He was very supportive throughout the course and he always encouraged me to speak more and corrected my mistakes in a constructive way. He also gave me useful tips and tricks on how to pronounce words correctly and how to avoid common errors. He made the lessons fun and engaging by using different materials and activities. Alexander also explained the grammar rules clearly and thoroughly. He used simple and easy-to-understand examples to illustrate the concepts and showed me how to apply them in different contexts. He also provided me with exercises and homework to practice what I learned and to reinforce my knowledge. He always checked my answers and gave me feedback on how to improve them. Our teacher was also very flexible and responsive to our needs. He asked us what our goals and expectations were at the beginning of the course and tailored the lessons accordingly. He also regularly asked us if we had any questions or suggestions and adjusted the pace and content of the lessons based on our feedback. I would highly recommend this German course to anyone who wants to learn or improve their German skills. Alexander is a professional and great teacher who knows how to teach the language effectively and enjoyably. He helped me achieve my learning objectives and made me feel more confident and comfortable in speaking and understanding German. He is one of the best teachers I have ever had.
(Translated by Google) I had the pleasure of learning German with Florian, and I can't recommend him highly enough! His teaching style is engaging and effective, making complex grammar concepts easy to understand. He also creates a supportive and interactive classroom atmosphere that encourages participation and boosts confidence. He tailors the lessons to individual needs, ensuring that each student progresses at their own pace. Thanks to his passion for the language and culture, I not only improved my German skills but also developed a genuine love for the language. He is very dedicated. (Original) Ich hatte das Vergnügen, mit Florian Deutsch zu lernen, und ich kann ihn nicht genug empfehlen! Sein Unterrichtsstil ist ansprechend und effektiv, wodurch komplexe Grammatik Konzepte leicht verständlich werden. Er schafft auch eine unterstützende und interaktive Klassenatmosphäre, die zur Teilnahme anregt und das Selbstvertrauen stärkt. Er passt die Lektionen an die individuellen Bedürfnisse an und sorgt dafür, dass jeder Schüler in seinem eigenen Tempo Fortschritte macht. Dank seiner Leidenschaft für die Sprache und Kultur habe ich nicht nur meine Deutschkenntnisse verbessert, sondern auch eine echte Liebe zur Sprache entwickelt. Er ist sehr engagiert.
(Translated by Google) The VOX language school enabled people who had to leave their homes due to hostilities in Ukraine to integrate into the language environment. A huge thank you to the school for the excellent teacher! A special thank you goes to our teacher, Yana Antonova. Yana Antonova introduced us to the German language. She made every lesson fun, energetic, interesting, and dynamic. She inspires us to learn and absorb new information. I really want to continue. (Original) Die VOX-Sprachschule ermöglichte es Menschen, die aufgrund der Feindseligkeiten in der Ukraine ihre Heimat verlassen mussten, sich in die Sprachumgebung zu integrieren. Ein grosses Dankeschön an die Schule für den hervorragenden Lehrer! Ein besonderes Dankeschön geht an unsere Lehrerin Yana Antonova. Yana Antonova führte uns in die deutsche Sprache ein. Sie hat jede Unterrichtsstunde lustig, energiegeladen, interessant und dynamisch gestaltet. Sie macht uns Lust, zu lernen und neue Informationen zu erhalten. Ich möchte wirklich weitermachen.
(Translated by Google) A very good team that responds competently and in a variety of ways to the needs of students and customers. (Original) Sehr gutes Team, das kompetent und vielfältig auf die Studenten und Kunden eingeht.
Highly recommend 😊 After changing various school to learn German, in Vox I had the opportunity to get intensive and super-intensive courses with great teachers. The most advantageous is that all classes are hold with 3-5 people strictly which is the perfect number in order the tuition to be efficient.
Very small group class and lots of interaction with a teacher. It is great opportunity not only improving your language skills, but also communication skills and meet amazing people. Whenever you have questions you always can easily reach to your teacher. If you are looking for a lot of interaction in a class and would like to improve your communication skill, this is the best school for that!
(Translated by Google) I really enjoyed the course. Our teacher, Leah, was excellent at addressing our goals and needs and managed to bring them all together. I made the most progress in speaking. The many conversations during the lessons allowed me to speak much more fluently and expanded my active vocabulary. With Leah, we often looked at the etymology, precise meaning, and usage of new vocabulary, which made it much easier for me to remember and understand them. Leah's attentive and friendly teaching style suited me perfectly. I would definitely take her classes again. Off the top of my head, nothing comes to mind that could have been improved, except perhaps that we only received the books halfway through the course, which wasn't your fault and wasn't really a problem. Leah handled it brilliantly :) (Original) Der Kurs hat mir richtig gut gefallen. Unsere Lehrerin Leah ist super auf unsere Ziele und Bedürfnisse eingegangen und hat es geschafft diese unter einen Hut zu bringen. Den grössten Fortschritt habe ich beim Sprechen gemacht. Die vielen Unterhaltungen während den Lektionen haben es mir ermöglicht nun einiges fliessender sprechen zu können und hat meinen aktiven Wortschatz erweitert. Wir haben mit Leah oft die Wortherkunft, die genaue Bedeutung und den „Verwendungsbereich“ von neuen Vokabeln angeschaut, was es mir enorm erleichtert hat mir diese zu merken und zu verstehen. Leahs aufmerksame und sympathische Art zu unterrichten hat sehr gut zu mir gepasst. Ich würde sofort wieder zu ihr in den Unterricht gehen. Gerade spontan kommt mir nichts in den Sinn, das man hätte besser machen können, ausser vielleicht dass wir die Bücher erst Mitte des Kurses erhalten haben, was erstens nicht euer Fehler war und zweitens gar nicht so gestört hat. Leah hat das super gemanagt :)
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!
(Translated by Google) Responsive staff, professional teachers! (Original) Reaktionsschnelles Personal, professionelle Lehrer!
Wonderful school, very convenient location and experienced teachers! I took 3 courses here (A1, A2, B1) and passed the B1 test without any problems, even though in the last month I did almost no homework. Many thanks to the teachers for their genuine interest and friendly atmosphere.
This is an amazing experience ☺ I participated in german B2 and now on C1 level. My teacher, Priska, is very good at understanding individual strengths and needs and adapts the lesson accordingly, no matter if in a group or private lesson context. The tempo is intense with homework in between the lessons. The upside is the great progress that you feel which comes in a short period of time. The school is so great that it makes me want to continue studying more languages once I'm happy with my German ☺
Being a teacher at VOX is a very rich and joyful experience. The VOX method allows the students to get to meet a language from one of the most important sides of it – speaking. Back in the days, when I was learning English and French, a method such as the VOX-method would have helped me a lot and I would have loved to get to know it earlier. VOX provides a learning atmosphere that gives the students a chance to learn a language with a lot of motivation. One of the many advantages is also that the school is located right next to the main train station and that is very convenient both for the students and the teachers.

Many people struggle to learn French 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.
