On B1 level at VOX, you will work towards the goal of being able to speak actively and independently, because at level B1 practically all of the grammar required for speaking freely will be completed. To achieve this, the principles of language usage on B1 level will be explained to you in a simple way using the VOX method, so that you can apply them immediately in your everyday life. We will work in a very focused and playful way on the sentence structure, declension of the nouns, declension of the adjectives, verb conjugation, Konjunktiv II, tenses and prepositions so that you can master these topics perfectly by the end of the course.

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.
Choosing a course
You can choose another German B1 Course in Zurich Central, with a different start date and a different schedule. More German Courses for all levels from A1 to C2. You may be interested in other language courses in Zurich Central. We will help you to speak fluently not only German!I couldn't be happier with my A1 online German course with VOX! The team has been enormously professional and responsive, providing great support all through the course. And my instructor, Maria...WOW!! As a former educator, I've been extremely impressed by her level of knowledge AND her ability to explain every single question clearly and completely. Maria is a seriously talented German teacher--ask for her, though I'm sure VOX has a full team of great teachers to offer. FIVE GOLD STARS for my A1 German course with VOX. Would give more if possible!
I am currently in the A2 German course at VOX. I am extremely happy with their services. The class I am in has 4 people which makes each lesson feel like private or semi-private. My teacher Isabelle is fantastic. She pushes us to only speak in German throughout the lesson which I can tell has boosted my grammar and speaking abilities. She makes each class interactive by explaining the theory and then letting us put it into practice, there is a lot of emphasis on speaking. I truly appreciate her teaching style and the confidence VOX has given me to speak more German in my everyday life.
(Translated by Google) I am very satisfied with the language course - the teachers are very professional and I was able to greatly improve my English skills as a result. Thank you! (Original) Bin sehr zufrieden mit dem Sprachkurs - Die Leher sind sehr professionell und ich konnte meine Englischkenntnisse dadurch stark verbessern. Vielen Dank!
Elly from Vox the best teacher we can have she corrected each moment our mistakes ans prononciation.
I am currently in A2 German with the amazing Isabelle. She is a great teacher with great teaching technics and amazing personality. All of us in the group really vibe with her and learn with pleasure and smiles. My German has improved drastically and I am more confident to speak now. VOX Sprachschule is the best choice one can make for learning a language.
Took a 1-1 course to prepare for the German C1 exam and I passed. Teacher Larissa was encouraging the whole time.
After 13+ years in Switzerland I finally enrolled myself in super intensive German lessons A1 and chose VOX based on stellar online reviews. I can fully echo all the positive reviews as the class sizes are small and ideal for learning and the instructors (Felicity) are extremely patient and awesome. Registration is a breeze and the central location makes it easily accessible via public transportation. Looking forward to A2 and I can definitely recommend VOX to anyone who is ready to learn German!

(Translated by Google) I tried to learn German for 4 years in several ways: self-taught, through apps or other online learning programs. But by far, Vox-Sprachschule Winterthur turned out to be the best choice! With teacher Daniel I did more more progress than ever! The courses I choose are individual, Daniel customizes the study plan according to what works best for me. I am on my 4th session and I can say that I love the German language! I will do the next course with Daniel, thanks to the whole team! (Original) Am încercat să învăț limba germană timp de 4 ani în mai multe feluri:ca autodidactă ,prin aplicații sau alte programe de învățare online .Dar de departe,Vox-Sprachschule Winterthur s-a dovedit a fi alegerea cea mai bună!Cu profesorul Daniel am făcut mai multe progrese ca niciodată!Cursurile alese de mine sunt individuale,Daniel personalizează planul de studiu în funcție de ceea ce funcționează cel mai bine pentru mine.Sunt la a 4 a ședință și pot spune că iubesc limba germană!Următorul curs îl voi face tot cu Daniel!mulțumesc întregii echipe!
(Translated by Google) I took part in the online intensive German course level C1 and am completely satisfied with my experience at the Vox language school. Communication with the secretariat was always friendly, quick and very helpful. The teacher was not only very competent, but also always available. The intensive course has 3 lessons of 120 minutes each per week, but students should plan plenty of study hours between lessons. In class, the grammar rules are repeated, exercises for text comprehension and listening comprehension are carried out and pronunciation is improved. The teacher assigns written or oral tasks for the whole class, but if you have great difficulty with certain topics, you will also be helped with individual tasks. The written work is also corrected every time and this helps a lot when preparing for the written part of the exam. (Original) Ich habe an dem Online-Intensiv-Deutschkurs Niveau C1 teilgenommen und bin mit meiner Erfahrung bei der Vox-Sprachschule voll und ganz zufrieden. Die Kommunikation mit dem Sekretariat war immer freundlich, schnell und sehr hilfreich. Die Lehrerin war nicht nur sehr kompetent, sondern immer verfügbar. Beim Intensivkurs gibt es 3 Unterrichtsstunden à 120 Minuten pro Woche, aber die Studentinnen/Studenten sollen viele Lernstunden zwischen den Unterrichtsstunden einplanen. Im Unterricht werden die Grammatikregeln wiederholt, Übungen zum Textverständnis und Hörverständnis durchgeführt und die Aussprache verbessert. Die Lehrerin vergibt jeweils schriftliche oder mündliche Aufgaben für die ganze Klasse, aber, wenn Man große Schwierigkeiten mit bestimmten Themen hat, wird ihm auch bei einzelnen Aufgaben geholfen. Die schriftlichen Arbeiten werden auch jedes Mal korrigiert und das hilft sehr bei der Vorbereitung auf den schriftlichen Teil der Prüfung.
(Translated by Google) I took the A1 module with Professor Yana and it is certainly the best of all!! The school's method is very busy, which means it's not for everyone, but with Yana's classes twice a week, I felt very encouraged to speak the language (German), in addition to her teaching skills being great. All teachers have linguistic knowledge. (Original) Fiz o módulo A1 com a professora Yana e certamente é a melhor de todas!! O método da escola é bem corrido, o que significa que não é para qualquer um, mas com as aulas da Yana duas vezes por semana, me senti muito estimulada a falar o idioma (alemão), além da didática dela ser ótima. Conhecimento linguístico todos os professores têm.
