My experience with VOX has been overall very positive and I cannot stress enough how their format of teaching to a maximum of 4 people at a time helps students developing their linguistic skills faster: you have more time to speak, to ask questions and to interact with your co-students. Isabelle has been a fantastic teacher. I attended A1 and A2 German courses with her. She was always ready to help whenever I needed assistance and answered my questions super quickly every time. She also pushed me and motivated me constantly. Herzlichen Dank Isabelle!!
(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.

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.

My experience with VOX has been incredible. I would recommend you for sure. Michael was extremely good, patient and always came prepared. If I did not understood something, he would take his time and explain again (and sometimes again) without any impatience. Thank you very much for the well planned itenarary and accommodating me in the Corona...🤔..... Times
I am very happy with my experience at VOX.The one-to-one lessons are exactly what I was looking for: a personalised course focused on conversation but also fun and interesting . My teacher Isabelle is very competent and supportive, she has helped me a lot to feel more confident in German and to enjoy speaking and learning the language :)
Ruben has been an outstanding teacher
Alles war sehr gut, insbesondere die Lehrerin Leonie. Sie nimmt den Unterricht ernst und versucht, alle beizubringen. Kritik kann ich nur über den Raum nennen, der sehr klein war. Der Raum ist im 5.Stock Zimmer 6. Ich bedanke mich bei Ihnen schliesslich für die faire Kosten. Lieben Gruss Yasin (Translated by Google) Everything was very good, especially the teacher Leonie. She takes classes seriously and tries to teach everyone. The only criticism I can give is the room, which was very small. The room is on the 5th floor, room 6. Finally, I would like to thank you for the fair costs. Kind regards Yasin
Great language school with amazing teachers! I can especially recommended Sabrina and Felicity, both very professional and friendly, explain everything in a great detail, encourage to talk and help you to pronounce words correctly. The admin staff also very accommodating and helpful.
Ich bin froh, dass ich mit der VOX Sprachschule einen B2 Deutschkurs entschieden habe, mit der bin ich einfach zufrieden. Es lont sich ein bisschen mehr bezahlen aber gute Qualität…👍👍 (Translated by Google) I am glad that I chose a B2 German course with the VOX language school, I am simply satisfied with it. It's worth paying a little more but good quality...👍👍

Die Lehrer sind leidenschaftlich gut und man lernt den Inhalt schnell (Translated by Google) The teachers are passionate and you learn the content quickly
Vox Language School has an amazing philosophy when it comes to teaching and language learning. The students are in the centre of attention and their needs and wants are focused on with empathy and interest. The whole team is warm and welcoming and as a teacher I especially appreciate the recognition from my students and boss. I can definitely recommend this school to anyone - students and teachers!

Learning English in Zurich: Where should I start?
As Zurich is rapidly evolving into a largely international city, there seems to be no way around finally learning the English language. As a consequence of this, the number of possible courses has also increased, which complicates the process of finding the ideal course for your personal learning targets even further. But where do you start when you cannot see the wood for the trees? In order to learn a language as efficiently and goal oriented as possible a wide range of key factors should be covered, for example personal learning targets, time planning, group size, teachers’ professionalism, and ample speaking opportunities. At VOX, we highly value helping you to speak confidently with the help of our self-developed teaching method – and this without wasting your precious time (and money).
The teacher: the ideal profile
Finding an English course in Zurich usually does not pose a challenge. This can unfortunately not be rendered true when looking for the ideal teacher. Throughout the process of choosing the perfect teacher for you, it is crucial to pay close attention to appropriate qualifications. It is often the case that native speakers have mastered English without any difficulties, yet they struggle when trying to make the underlying structure of a language tangible for their students. The result: an endless game of unspecific explanations, dull grammar exercises, and tremendous frustration. How are you supposed to acquire English with all its nuances, when the teacher merely learned the language by imitating other native speakers?
And what can you do when the teacher is indeed qualified, but the chemistry is just not right? For this reason, our success management team will reach out to you throughout the progression of your English course to ensure the highest quality possible. Open and regular communication with our students is thus essential, as nobody else but you can communicate best if you are pleased with your course and moving closer to your goals day by day. If it is in fact the case that you do not see eye to eye with your teacher, our team at VOX Zurich will help you find a more suitable teacher and the ideal solution for you as quickly as possible.
Group size: a lack of speaking results in a lack of learning
Essential key factors for successful learning cannot be implemented in big groups due to logistical factors, which especially prevents regular opportunities for active speaking. At worst, students feel lost in big groups and can only be supported toa minor degree by their teacher. For our English courses in Zurich, we thus consciously form groups of only max. five students. The teacher is therefore able to focus on your personal needs and the course is specifically tailored and adjusted to your individual learning process. Our small group sizes enable a speedy acquisition of the target language, which results in you being able to use English flexibly and confidently in various everyday situations within a short amount of time.
Our target-oriented lesson design without overcrowded classrooms is also reflected in our course planning. Your learning process is considerably accelerated due to close collaboration with your teacher, which makes it possible to cover a full level in just 1-3 months. As a result, sublevels such as A.1, A.2, A.3 etc. become redundant. It is not going to be necessary to book pricey continuation courses, as you enjoy the undivided attention of your teacher and complex structures are explained using a clearly structured teaching method.
Motivation and psychological barriers: Feeling stuck when speaking English?
You have now finally found your ideal English course, but still feel not confident enough to actually speak your target language. You are constantly wondering what the reason for this could be? The issue might sound rather complicated but can be easily solved: psychological barriers. These barriers, which significantly impact and impede your learning process, only develop in adolescence. For this reason, children do not seem to face any issues when learning languages and they integrate highly complex structures effortlessly into their preexisting language system. Our team at VOX is highly aware of these psychological challenges and has developed special strategies to actively counteract these barriers, making English speaking as easy as winking.
Just as important as bursting these psychological barriers is targeting one’s intrinsic motivation. Learning a new language is indeed time-consuming and can easily fall into the background due to various personal reasons. In order to perpetuate your motivation and avoid a vicious circle of frustration from the onset, we define your personal motivation in the first lesson with you, as well as your individual learning objectives. Throughout your course, we are constantly pursuing your goals with the help of efficient and scientifically proven strategies.
Personal learning targets: Improving your English level or rather striving for an official certificate?
English course does not equal English course. When looking for an English course it is crucial to pay close attention to your personal learning targets. Most people pursue the goal of improving their level in general to ensure smooth communication within the English language. However, you would rather like to prepare for an official exam (e.g. Cambridge Certificate) or improve certain terminology for your everyday life at work? At VOX, we can provide enough flexibility to actively tackle specific areas of the English language, which is mainly the result of our small group sizes – as always with the full attention and support of the teacher.
Central location: Nobody likes travelling for hours
Living and working in Zurich can indeed be hectic. Often, it already proves to be difficult to integrate an English course into an already busy schedule. The location of VOX Zurich could however not be more central, as the school is located right at Zurich Central in the historic Polybahn building. VOX Zurich can also be reached by foot in only a few minutes from Zurich Main Station. You urgently have to go on a business trip, or you would like to visit your family? Thanks to our innovative digital board you can continue attending your English course, irrespective of your own location. Consequently, nothing seems to be standing in the way of successfully learning the English language – and this can be taken literally.

Many people struggle to learn English 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.
