I have had an excellent experience during my B2 German course with VOX. Yana is an incredible teacher, she is really encouraging and patient and my German has improved more than I ever could have hoped! Yana made sure that every lesson was tailored towards my needs and really went above and beyond in making sure I was always getting the most out of the course and our lessons - can't thank her enough!!
Professional service, excellent teacher! Strongly recommend
(Translated by Google) Alice's lessons are great! I learn a lot and it's fun! (Original) Der Unterricht mit Alice ist super! Ich lerne viel und es macht Spass!
My experience with VOX was fantastic. I did a 2 month private online course with Isabel and I was amazed at how much I actually learned in such a short time. She is a very skilled teacher and the lessons were always relaxed and friendly. When I struggled with some of the concepts she was able to really explain the intricate details In an easy way that really helped me progress and really understand what I was learning. I will definitely continue on with VOX and Isabel, I highly recommend their services for learning German.
Great teachers, flexible schedule, convenient location - I enjoyed my German B2 and C1 classes I had with VOX.
Very happy with Elly
(Translated by Google) I am very happy to be taking my course at VOX; it's very dynamic and involves a lot of conversation. (Original) Ich bin sehr froh, meinen Kurs bei VOX zu machen, sehr dynamisch und mit viel Konversation.
Teachers are great, and the small group size makes sure the classes remain interactive and you are engaged all the time
Centrally located, and flexible hours. Classes with my teacher, Isabelle Wegmüller, are highly engaging, and I feel like my German is slowly taking shape
I have tried other schools before but I felt confident to start speaking in Vox-Sprachschule lessons. I really took advantage of the learning time trying to comunicate in German. That was possible thanks to Polina, an amazing teacher, super dinamic, with strong focus on speaking and without loosing the joy and fun while learning. Also the school is very flexible to attend students needs. Unspected, i needed to change shifts and there was an option so they solved it really fast. I would really like to continue my learning there!
I’m about to complete my A1 German course with VOX, and I attended the semi-individual class with my partner. The registration process was incredibly quick and seamless, thanks to the excellent support from the administration. We’ve truly enjoyed our lessons and feel that we’ve made significant progress. Elly has been outstanding in creating an engaging and supportive learning environment, while skillfully adapting each session to our individual strengths and areas for improvement. We would highly recommend VOX to anyone.
A great choice for anyone working full-time who wants to learn German at a flexible pace, with a strong focus on verbal communication. I highly recommend VOX Sprachschule.
Quality teaching
Languages
For every language we teach at VOX-Sprachschule, we focus on speaking, as it is the most natural form of communication. Many people concentrate on writing and reading, which prevents them from feeling like they are making progress in their target language. We try to approach this learning process differently: when you train yourself to speak first, grammar simply becomes a tool to support you in your language-learning journey. Reading and writing should come naturally, while speaking needs to be practiced at least 15 minutes a day.
