Pricing
Based on value
The price of a language course is always linked to the group size and the course content. We start group courses with only 2 people (max. 5) and aim to complete one level within one course.
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.
Thoroughly enjoyed the course!
Its a great school. I am taking A2 with Sabrina intensive course. Sabrina is truly a great teacher, she is super patient, explains very well and really loves teaching. Totally recommend it!!
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.
I was taking individual classes and I had good teacher during the training. More focus on practical learning vs. overkill with grammar.
VOX-Sprachschule is top notch. My teacher, Alexander, is always able to answer my questions. His expertise in languages and teaching really shows. Unlike other German courses I've attended, I really enjoyed and looked forward to this one 2x per week. The lessons and homework kept me motivated. The flexibility and personalized learning objectives of the individual lessons was really worth the extra cost for me. I've signed up to take the course again. I would recommend this course to anyone that is serious about learning one of the languages they offer.
Very professional and individual approach to the students
(Translated by Google) I am satisfied with the Vox language school, namely with German teacher Björn Benjamin Lutz. Lessons are not only well structured but also funny. I think classes in small groups are effective. (Original) Ich bin zufrieden mit der Vox-Sprachschule, nämlich mit Deutschlehrer Björn Benjamin Lutz. Lektionen sind nicht nur gut strukturiert, sondern auch lustig. Klassen in kleinen Gruppen halte ich für effektiv.
Please find below your text if you wish to leave it after the rating: I’m extremely happy with my classes with Solange. I feel there is a good balance between conversation and grammar, and I believe I’m improving every week. I look forward to continuing with her for the next levels. Thank you!
I would like to express my satisfaction with the school in general and my German teacher, Ms. Olga Chincholle, in particular. Starting from a prompt and highly organized reception and course orientation, followed by professionalism of my teacher - everything is perfect so far. The most important is the fact, that the course is fully oriented towards my personal level and needs. I'm glad to have this experience!
Very good language school.
Very profissional staff and teachers. The classes are fun and the pace is just right.

Many people struggle to learn German 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.
