English Courses in Zurich

(Translated by Google) I really liked the course. Our teacher Leah responded very well to our goals and needs and managed to reconcile them. I made the most progress in speaking. The many conversations during the lessons have enabled me to speak more fluently and have expanded my active vocabulary. With Leah we often looked at the origin of words, the exact meaning and the “area of ​​use” of new words, which made it much easier for me to remember and understand them. Leah's attentive and personable way of teaching suited me very well. I would go to her class again in a heartbeat. I can't immediately think of anything that could have been done better, except perhaps that we didn't receive the books until the middle of the course, which firstly wasn't your fault and secondly wasn't that much of a problem. Leah managed it great :) (Original) Der Kurs hat mir richtig gut gefallen. Unsere Lehrerin Leah ist super auf unsere Ziele und Bedürfnisse eingegangen und hat es geschafft diese unter einen Hut zu bringen. Den grössten Fortschritt habe ich beim Sprechen gemacht. Die vielen Unterhaltungen während den Lektionen haben es mir ermöglicht nun einiges fliessender sprechen zu können und hat meinen aktiven Wortschatz erweitert. Wir haben mit Leah oft die Wortherkunft, die genaue Bedeutung und den „Verwendungsbereich“ von neuen Vokabeln angeschaut, was es mir enorm erleichtert hat mir diese zu merken und zu verstehen. Leahs aufmerksame und sympathische Art zu unterrichten hat sehr gut zu mir gepasst. Ich würde sofort wieder zu ihr in den Unterricht gehen. Gerade spontan kommt mir nichts in den Sinn, das man hätte besser machen können, ausser vielleicht dass wir die Bücher erst Mitte des Kurses erhalten haben, was erstens nicht euer Fehler war und zweitens gar nicht so gestört hat. Leah hat das super gemanagt :)

I highly recommend taking your German classes at VOX. And even more so I recommend requesting Alexander Lips as your teacher. Over the last year or so I've taken a few classes with Alexander (B1, B2, C1) and I've waited to make a review as I've been gate keeping his greatness. He is the best language instructor I've ever had and the most passionate. It is hard to stay motivated to study a language and it's hard to attend an evening course after work. But this isn't the case in Alexander's class. His expertise is inspiring. The course was completely tailored to our goals and our motivations. We explored poetry, books and presentations, all of which was frankly fun and enriching. We learned grammar, practiced speaking and reading, all while learning about history and art. I can also say I've read two books in German now which is super satisfying and it also gives me more to talk about to my friends in German. If anything I wish I had more time to learn and take advantage of Alexander's great instruction. Another very unique skill of Alexander's is his deep understanding of etymology and applying the skill to make words stick in your mind. He can break down words into components to then make connections to others words, languages, history, or stories. He shows the patterns to look for to do the same. There are words I'll never forget because he took the time to really give us the depth of the word. Such a talent to have! Huge thank you to VOX for such great organization and a huge thank you to Alexander for all the work and care he puts in his instruction. So, if you've read to here you should really go register already for a course!

This is an excellent language school. I was looking for a flexible program that could accommodate my work and travel schedule, and yet allow me to gain a working knowledge of German fairly quickly. The staff at VOX-sprachschule were incredibly cooperative and helpful. With their assistance I was able to find the right level and schedule for lessons. In my case this was private lessons via video. But am sure the group lessons are excellent as well. The teaching materials and the quality of instruction is really superb. I am especially pleased with my instructor, Isabelle Wegmüller, who is very knowledgeable, patient and fun. I am making good progress and expect to continue on with my lessons for the foreseeable future. I highly recommend this language school.

(Translated by Google) I wanted to learn French and took 20 hours of private lessons with Mr. Sebastien. Very nice, understanding and took things slowly. The administration took very good care of your new arrivals. They called me after the first week to see how I was doing. I once gave a 4-star rating and 1 day later the administration called me directly to ask what was missing or how they could help. Overall, I was very satisfied with Mr. Sebastien and the VOX administration team. When I have more time again, I would like to continue my lessons. (Original) Ich wollte Französisch lernen und machte dort 20 Stunden Privatunterricht mit dem Herr Sebastien. Sehr nett, verständnisvoll und ging die Sache langsam an. Die Administration kümmerte sich sehr gut um Ihre Neuzugänge. Sie riefen mich nach der ersten Woche an, um zu wissen wie es mir ergeht. Ich machte einmal eine 4-Sterne Bewertung und 1 Tag später rief die Administration direkt mich an um zu fragen was mir fehlte oder wie sie noch behilflich sein können. Im grossen und ganzen war ich sehr zufrieden von Herr Sebastien und dem Administrationsteam von VOX. Wenn ich wieder mehr Zeit habe möchte ich gerne mein Unterricht fortsetzen.

I am taking level B1 with Björn and he is great! He is friendly and very professional: his explanations are clear and kind, he is very energetic and has always a clear path to follow in the classroom. Very recommended!

The best language school for immigrants. Very reliable and responsive team, great teachers and also comfortable classes in heart of the city. I improved myself a lot with two courses already, and gladly will attend for more. Also the schedule might be flexible and they help with any questions I have. Thank you VOX! Keep going 🤗

I am very happy with the teaching method of this school. Before I started to learn German with this method, I had been learning German already two years. Nevertheless I didn't feel power to communicate, not even talking about passing the exam in order to receive permit C. And with the method of this school I only needed one and a half months and I passed the exam with 85% out of 100%. I started to talk to people. I started to understand cases and genders. Rules of the German language no longer scare me. It all became like a game for me. And my learning now goes on, ones you understand the method, you can continue learning all the time. I recommend this school very much. And if I decide to learn some other language more, I will absolutely go only to this language school.

I started my German language learning journey with Vox Language School as a complete beginner. I took an A1 group course with Solange, which helped me so much to get started in German and allowed me to delve into the fundamentals of German (grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation). Currently, I am taking individual lessons from Tatiana, tailored to my language needs. We are working on more advanced grammar rules, vocabulary and also specific strategies to pass TELC B1 exam. Overall, my experience with Vox is outstanding, especially with individual lessons, I can swiftly progress and learn whatever I need to achieve my language goals. Therefore, I highly recommend Vox Language School.

I think I achieved my goals by doing a course with Felicity. I learned something new about learning as well, which I can apply in every studying subject. That's why I can recommend this course to everyone who learns German. The studying materials and school facilities are also of highest quality. Thank you ones more for your team work!

Elly from Vox the best teacher we can have she corrected each moment our mistakes ans prononciation.

I really enjoy studying German at this school. I am grateful for the opportunity in a short time to gain knowledge for communication in a new country for me. Special thanks to the teacher Solange Morel, who gives information very professionally and excitingly and strongly motivates in learning the language! She’s really cool at teaching!

Awesome class
