I love the teachers but wish for flexible lesson schedules
I would like to share my experience with Vox-Sprachschule, which has been extremely positive from start to finish. From the moment I arrived, I received a very warm and professional welcome from Maxime. He took the time to clearly explain how the program works and ensured that I felt comfortable and confident about the learning process ahead. I also had the opportunity to learn with an outstanding teacher, Mariia. Her teaching approach is both engaging and highly effective. Thanks to her guidance, I have made significant progress and can genuinely see my improvement in English. She creates a supportive and motivating environment, which makes learning both enjoyable and rewarding. Overall, I highly recommend Vox-Sprachschule to anyone looking for a serious and well-structured language learning experience. The quality of teaching and the level of support provided truly make a difference. Piqueras Nicolas
The methodology, which is based on speaking, is very successful in the learning process. I took two levels of German at this School and I noticed quick progress. During this time I had 5 teachers and all of them were amazing!! their explanations were very clear and thanks to them, it was easier to improve my German.
Caterina from Vox the best teacher we can have she corrected each moment our mistakes and prononciation.She answers to our questions and give very good advices for grammar issues! Best teacher !
Very nice school with a nice and flexible teachers :)
Maria Davydova was excellent and professional throughout our correspondence.
(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.
The way the school teaches is very good. It is the first time I have passed a level without any doubt. Olga is the best teacher I have ever had. I definitely recommend the school.
Had such a good experience with VOX. I e-mailed them very last-minute and they were able to get me in to lessons extremely quickly and were very prompt in their replies. My teacher, Isabelle, has been amazing - I have progressed extremely quickly under her guidance, and have had a great deal of fun doing it. I would wholeheartedly and enthusiastically recommend her and VOX.
I was taking a C2 English course at the VOX language school to prepare for a Toefl exam. The school is located in the heart of the city right on Central square. After my request for a C2 level course, I was quickly given a recommendation about who would be the best teacher for me. I was being introduced to Tatiana who is a great teacher and she helped me out in any way I needed her. I didn’t have much time for my exam preparation, but Tatiana made sure we covered everything for the exam just in time. All in all, I would highly recommend studying at VOX language school and would definitely join again if I wanted to improve or learn another language!
(Translated by Google) I had the B1 lesson with the teacher, Priska. It was really practical and great! I not only learned about grammar but also got lots of practice in the language. I absolutely recommend VOX School! :) (Original) Ich hatte die B1 Lektion mit der Lehrerin, Priska. Es war wirklich praktisch und prima! Ich habe nicht nur über die Grammatisch gelernt sondern auch vielen Sprache Praxis gemacht. Ich empfehle VOX Schule absolut! :)
This is an excellent language school. I was looking for a flexible program that could accommodate my work and travel schedule, and yet allow me to gain a working knowledge of German fairly quickly. The staff at VOX-sprachschule were incredibly cooperative and helpful. With their assistance I was able to find the right level and schedule for lessons. In my case this was private lessons via video. But am sure the group lessons are excellent as well. The teaching materials and the quality of instruction is really superb. I am especially pleased with my instructor, Isabelle Wegmüller, who is very knowledgeable, patient and fun. I am making good progress and expect to continue on with my lessons for the foreseeable future. I highly recommend this language school.

Course Description
If you are ready to sit your first intermediate level exam for German, then this course is for you. This course is also perfect for those who want to gain Swiss citizenship and need to prove that they have B1-level speaking skills or for your C-permit.
In this course, you will progress from a basic to an independent user of German and you will be able to deal with most daily situations in German. Your experienced teacher will help you to improve your language skills and also develop strategies for tackling the different parts of the exam. Our classes are small (3-5 people). This small size means your teacher can adapt to you and your needs. 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, and will familiarise you with the structure of each section. By using Telc-specific exam preparation materials you will be fully prepared for the exam by the end of the course.
If you didn’t find any course in the course list, please fill out our non binding inquiry form, we might still have a course for you.

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.
