Great teachers! Very satisfied with online course as well
Great teachers, flexible schedule, convenient location - I enjoyed my German B2 and C1 classes I had with VOX.
Good and a very dedicated teacher Andersen
(Translated by Google) Within a very short time, I learned the basics of Spanish at VOX and had a lot of fun! My teacher adapted the approach and content to my needs, which made it easier to get started with a new language while keeping my interest and motivation high. The school also scores points with its very central location and high flexibility in scheduling – overall, I'm very satisfied :) (Original) Innerhalb von sehr kurzer Zeit lernte ich an der VOX die Grundzüge der spanischen Sprache und hatte dabei eine ganze Menge Spass! Meine Lehrerin hat die Vorgehensweise und Inhalte stark auf meine Bedürfnisse angepasst, was den Einstieg in eine neue Sprache einerseits erleichtert und das Interesse & Motivation hoch hält. Die Schule punktet zudem mit einem sehr zentralen Standort und hoher Flexibilität bei der Organisation der Termine - insgesamt bin ich sehr zufrieden :)
(Translated by Google) I'm currently taking a business English course, as well as individual lessons. Flexible, uncomplicated, solution-oriented! Registration is possible with preferred dates, which is what brought me to VOX. Group courses with a maximum of 5 participants ensure rapid progress. I can also recommend private lessons. The teachers know how to motivate and are top-notch in their field! (Original) Ich besuche zur Zeit einen Business-Englischkurs, ebenso parallel dazu Einzellektionen. flexibel, unkompliziert, lösungsorientiert! Anmeldung mit Wunschterminen möglich, was mich auch zu VOX gebracht hat. Gruppenkurse mit max. 5 Teilnehmern sorgen für schnelles Weiterkommen. Ebenfalls kann ich Privatlektionen weiterempfehlen. Die Lehrerinnen und Lehrer verstehen es zu motivieren und sind fachlich top!
Very nice school with a nice and flexible teachers :)
(Translated by Google) I'm very happy with both my teachers (Anna and Evgeniya) and with Vox. The lessons are very enjoyable, and the content and level are 100% tailored to my needs. (Original) Ich bin sowohl mit meinen beiden Lehrerinnen (Anna und Evgeniya) als auch mit Vox sehr zufrieden. Der Unterricht ist sehr angenehm und der Inhalt und das Niveau sind zu 100% auf meine Bedürfnisse abgestimmt.
(Translated by Google) I attended a "super-intensive" online course. My French teacher, Sébastien, made the lessons very varied and exciting. I was able to ask questions about any grammar or vocabulary topic, which Sébastien then reviewed and explained clearly. I also found the small talk in French with Sébastien very helpful and enjoyable. I was able to learn a lot and will be taking the DALF C1 exam in about six weeks. The free trial lesson with teacher Nathalie in Winterthur also impressed me, and I also found the location of the school very good. The only thing I have to criticize was the organization until I could find a French group course at C1 level. Although the administration staff were all friendly, I originally wanted to attend a group course in Winterthur starting in mid-August, but sometimes only received an email response about once a week, so I ended up attending an online course starting in early September. In retrospect, I also found it very good online because the lessons themselves were extremely informative. That's why I would still like to take another course at the Vox language school. :) (Original) Ich habe einen „super-intensiven“ Onlinekurs besucht. Mein Französisch-Lehrer Sébastien hat den Unterricht sehr abwechslungsreich und spannend gestaltet. Ich konnte zu jedem Grammatik-Thema oder zum Wortschatz Fragen stellen und dies wurde dann gemeinsam mit Sébastien angeschaut und verständlich erklärt. Die Smalltalks auf Französisch mit Sébastien fand ich auch ganz hilfreich und angenehm. Ich konnte sehr viel lernen und werde in etwa sechs Wochen die DALF C1-Prüfung absolvieren. Die kostenlose Probelektion mit der Lehrerin Nathalie in Winterthur hat mich ebenfalls überzeugt und die Lage der Schule habe ich auch sehr gut gefunden. Das einzige, was ich etwas bemängeln muss, war die Organisation bis ein Französisch-Gruppenkurs auf C1-Niveau gefunden werden konnte. Die Mitarbeiter der Administration waren zwar alle freundlich, jedoch wollte ich ursprünglich ab Mitte August einen Gruppenkurs in Winterthur besuchen, aber bekam z. T. nur etwa einmal pro Woche eine Antwort per Mail und besuchte dann schliesslich einen Onlinekurs ab Anfang September. Im Nachhinein habe ich es online aber auch sehr gut gefunden, weil die Lektionen an sich äusserst lehrreich aufgebaut waren. Deshalb würde ich dennoch gerne wieder einen Kurs bei der Vox Sprachschule besuchen. :)
Deutsch A1 Online Very good school for learning. Easy selection of course. Timely communication and atleast bilingual teachers. My teacher Ms. Nora is absolutely great. Has been understanding and flexible with the classes.
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!
Good place to learn a new language fast.
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 ☺

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.
