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.

(Translated by Google) About 8 months ago I had the pleasure of studying under Olga Chincholle. She is a great teacher who really cares about her students. Evgenia Golandskaya, who organized everything, was also fantastic! Both made my time there a positive experience. I thank you both very much!

Great school, I definitely recommend it !
Language learning at Vox has been a great experience. They are very flexible and responsive and always tried to tailor lessons to fit and grow my actual abilities.
Superb school and a dynamic one!!! They have great teachers! I recommend the school for its very good quality and you will learn a lot. A tip! you can ask for an English certificate!
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.
I've been very impressed with VOX Sprachschule Zürich. I started A1 classes in a small group lesson in February, then the pandemic hit and my courses were moved online. My teacher, Maximiliano (Maxi) Nigg, is fantastic! The classes are challenging but so helpful and my confidence in German continues to grow. I would recommend VOX and specifically Maxi to anyone who is looking to learn German.
I took a month long intensive B1 German course at VOX and it was the best experience I have had so far in my German learning! The class was small and personalised in a very convenient location in downtown Zurich. My teacher, Suzannah Higgs, was knowledgable, engaging and truly cared about my progression. I really noticed a difference in my level of comprehension and speech by the end of the course. I couldn't recommend it enough!
The teachers are very competent (in my case Daniel and Marion) and the secretariat is very helpful and friendly. The school seems to be more expensive than others, but it is not because you will learn quickly.
Good lecturer with excellent teaching skills which pinpointed our pronunciation / grammar / vocab mistakes whenever we are practising German conversation.
I'm currently learning German faster than I thought possible. I'm very impressed with Mr. Botchkarev's method, very systematic and oriented towards practical application.
Took A2&B1 course with Isabelle. She removed my mentale blockage towards German language. Thank you Isabelle! You change my perspective. Your creativity, fun spirit and very clear approach made this journey smooth as possible. I can highly recommend Isabelle and this school to anyone who is struggling to learn German.
Great location and very professional and motivated teachers. Have been going there for a year now and can totally recommend it!
