Just completed my A2 DE course with Vox. I have had the best teacher in Alexander Lips. I am looking forward to do my next DE language level with Alexander soon.
(Translated by Google) I loved the place and the teacher is very, very good; she makes learning very easy and helps you a lot. She is very attentive and professional. I loved it. (Original) Ich habe den Ort geliebt und die Lehrerin ist sehr sehr gut, sie macht es sehr einfach zu lernen und hilft dir, sie ist sehr aufmerksam und professionell, ich liebe es
(Translated by Google) Freundlich, zielgerichtet, zuverlässig, creativity und mit Freude am Werk. Habe wohl Privatunterricht bei der optimalen Lehrerin (I) gebucht. Friendly, purposeful, reliable, serious but not too much, a creative force and with a lot of pleasure at work. I probably booked private lessons with an optimal teacher. (Original) Freundlich, zielgerichtet, zuverlässig, kreativ und mit Freude am Werk. Habe wohl Privatunterricht bei der optimalen Lehrerin (I) gebucht. Amichevole, finalizzata, affidabile, seria ma non troppo, una forza creativa e con molto piacere sul lavoro. Probabilmente ho prenotato lezioni private con una insegnante ottimale.
Had a very good learning period with Nadine! Would definitely recommend VOX-Sprachschule to anyone who would be interested to start picking up a new language in the fastest way possible!
Switzerland is a country of service and VOX School shows exactly why. The teachers and coordinators are very professional and generally care about their students' learning experience. The smaller groups make the classes more personal, as if having a private tutor. After taking 3 courses here, I can confidently say that it was the best choice I made.
(Translated by Google) The best language school 🫡 (Original) La mejor escuela de idiomas 🫡
I've worked for VOX for more than two years now. The best thing, among others, is probably a highly motivated team. Every single person here works hard and always tries to improve, including the back office, teachers and the owners of the school who work so hard themselves to offer high quality and well organized courses with personal care. Challenging and live working environment. Highly recommend!
👍🏼
Locations is perfect! Teachers are very professional and just cool ;) Recommend this school in any aspect!
Good place to learn a new language fast.
(Translated by Google) A great language school, the teachers are very knowledgeable, the staff are helpful and the teaching methods are very good. (Original) Eine Tolle Sprachschule die Lehrpersonen sind sehr Vlecksiebel , die Lehrkräfte sind hilfsbereit und die Lehrmethoden sind sehr gut.
Most excellent place to learn German I have found. Good mix of teaching and speaking practice.

Many people struggle to learn Mandarin Chinese 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.
