Individual Super-Intensive German C1 Lessons in Winterthur

(Translated by Google) I really enjoyed the conversation course with Timo. In the last 12 lessons, Timo has chosen many interesting texts as well as various podcasts about current topics. We were always very motivated to have conversations. I can only recommend this course. (Original) Der Konversationskurs bei Timo hat mir viele Freude gemacht. In den letzten 12 Lektionen hat Timo sowohl viele interesante Texte als auch verschiedene Podcasts über aktuellen Themen gewählt. Damit waren wir immer sehr gut motiviert Konversation zu machen. Ich kann diesen Kurs nur weiterempfehlen.

Great school, I definitely recommend it !

(Translated by Google) I took a “super-intensive” online course. My French teacher Sébastien made the lessons very varied and exciting. I was able to ask questions about any grammar topic or vocabulary and this was then looked at together with Sébastien and explained in an understandable way. I also found the small talks in French with Sébastien very helpful and pleasant. I was able to learn a lot and will be taking the DALF C1 exam in about six weeks. The free trial lesson with the teacher Nathalie in Winterthur also convinced me and I also found the location of the school very good. The only thing I have to complain about was the organization until a French group course at C1 level could be found. The administration staff were all friendly, but I originally wanted to attend a group course in Winterthur from mid-August, but for example I was given... T. only received an answer by email about once a week and then finally attended an online course from the beginning of September. In retrospect, I found it very good online because the lessons themselves were extremely educational. That's why I would still like to take a course at the Vox language school again. :) (Original) Ich habe einen „super-intensiven“ Onlinekurs besucht. Mein Französisch-Lehrer Sébastien hat den Unterricht sehr abwechslungsreich und spannend gestaltet. Ich konnte zu jedem Grammatik-Thema oder zum Wortschatz Fragen stellen und dies wurde dann gemeinsam mit Sébastien angeschaut und verständlich erklärt. Die Smalltalks auf Französisch mit Sébastien fand ich auch ganz hilfreich und angenehm. Ich konnte sehr viel lernen und werde in etwa sechs Wochen die DALF C1-Prüfung absolvieren. Die kostenlose Probelektion mit der Lehrerin Nathalie in Winterthur hat mich ebenfalls überzeugt und die Lage der Schule habe ich auch sehr gut gefunden. Das einzige, was ich etwas bemängeln muss, war die Organisation bis ein Französisch-Gruppenkurs auf C1-Niveau gefunden werden konnte. Die Mitarbeiter der Administration waren zwar alle freundlich, jedoch wollte ich ursprünglich ab Mitte August einen Gruppenkurs in Winterthur besuchen, aber bekam z. T. nur etwa einmal pro Woche eine Antwort per Mail und besuchte dann schliesslich einen Onlinekurs ab Anfang September. Im Nachhinein habe ich es online aber auch sehr gut gefunden, weil die Lektionen an sich äusserst lehrreich aufgebaut waren. Deshalb würde ich dennoch gerne wieder einen Kurs bei der Vox Sprachschule besuchen. :)

I attended a private A2 German course online and never had any kind of issue. Teacher (Yana) was very professional and always available for the explanations. I learned a lot attending that course. Likely I'll start another course afther the sommer break.

Very profissional staff and teachers. The classes are fun and the pace is just right.

(Translated by Google) I had the opportunity to take my first French course (A1/A2) with Sebastien Pruvost. Sebastien is now one of my favorite teachers so far, trying to teach you French quickly and in a structured manner. His method is based on traditional textbooks such as Grammaire en dialogues as well as playful, authentic auditory and visual options. He is flexible and responds specifically to the needs of his students. I can wholeheartedly recommend Sebastien as a French teacher at the VOX School!

Seine Methode basiert auf traditionelle Lehrbücher wie Grammaire en dialogues sowie auf spielerische, authentische auditive und visuelle Optionen. Er zeigt sich flexibel und geht gezielt auf die Bedürfnisse seines Schülers ein. Ich kann Sebastien als Französischlehrer der VOX Schule von Herzen empfehlen!

Review from my partner Kathleen Izzat I do feel that I am moving towards my goals with this language course and there is enough speaking practice. The lessons are interesting and Priska is very friendly and patient, often encouraging the students to find or to work out the correct answer by ourselves initially, then using help from co-students before stepping in to assist and advise. We are given plenty of relevant, everyday examples of the language in use and are supported well when we try to use German to describe our own experiences and thoughts. Looking back through the course book I can see that the new information being provided very cleverly flows throughout each chapter, as well as from chapter to chapter - it’s a well written course book. I would however, as a memory aid, prefer the book to be more colourful (for example, as in Hueber’s Schritte plus series) but that’s just my own preference. It’s not a problem though and it forces me to make my own notes, but that does take up a lot of home time on this intensive course. Overall though I am very pleased with this course

(Translated by Google) I am very satisfied with the school's performance and can only recommend it. I had the opportunity to work with Isabelle Wegmüller and Isabel Paraguassu, with whom I learned a lot and made progress. The school's administrative team is committed, attentive and flexible. That was perfect! (Original) Ich bin sehr zufrieden mit den Leistungen der Schule und kann sie nur empfehlen. Ich hatte die Gelegenheit, mit Isabelle Wegmüller und Isabel Paraguassu zu arbeiten, mit denen ich viel gelernt und Fortschritte gemacht habe. Das Verwaltungsteam der Schule ist engagiert, aufmerksam und flexibel. Das war perfekt !

(Translated by Google) I thought the lessons with Tatiana were great. I looked forward to every lesson with her and would definitely recommend you. She organizes the lessons very individually and reacts spontaneously when we have talked about other topics. I had a great time and hope to continue the course in the spring. We laughed a lot and for me having fun is the most important thing in learning (Original) Ich fand den Unterricht mit Tatiana super. Habe mich auf jede Lektion mit ihr gefreut und würde euch auf jeden Fall weiterempfehlen. Sie gestaltet den Unterricht sehr individuell und reagiert spontan wenn wir über andere Themen gesprochen haben. Ich hatte eine tolle Zeit und hoffe den Kurs im Frühling noch weiterführen zu können. Wir haben viel gelacht und für mich ist Spass das wichtigste um zu lernen

Here is my honest review of VOX Sprachschule Winterthur: I have taken two courses (B1 and B2 German) with Vox and I have had a very positive experience so far. I have recommended Vox to a close friend of mine as well. My teachers at Vox were some of the best I’ve had. Each lesson plan is organised, the class sizes are small, and the teachers are highly educated. I am currently taking B2 German with Daniel M. The lessons are organised and structured letting you know which concepts are covered. This makes it easy to look back and practice on your own. My teacher does a great job breaking down German grammar principles into simple components and explaining the rules involved in sentence structure and conversation. My language acquisition is quicker and easier thanks to this method of teaching. He pays extra attention to making sure your pronunciation is correct when speaking. This has improved my communication skills greatly. The reading, writing, and conversational exercises are very helpful. Overall this course continues to give me the tools to become fluent in German. I have previously taken B1 with VOX as well, and I was also impressed with my former teacher, Alys B.-C. We learned in a structured yet stress-free manner. It was easy to speak to my other classmates online. I appreciated the instructor's detailed notes, conversation, handouts, and written exercises. I would definitely take another Vox class again. It is worth the price. The teachers are supportive and you can e-mail them outside of class time. The school is flexible so working and learning is not a problem. The staff checks in with you to make sure your feedback about your class is taken into consideration. My understanding of German has vastly improved. My ability to read, write, and speak are much better than before. Overall Vox Sprachschule Winterthur gets a 5/5 for me.

Vox Sprachschule has been a great service provider for dependable German learning courses. Customer communication has been great and trustworthy. I was able to revise my German lessons taken earlier and feel confident that I will be able to take the A2 Telc exam successfully. My thanks goes to my tutor Isabelle W. who was instrumental in taking me through the paces with her genuine encoragement and knowledgeable inputs. I wish the school and all its tutors all the best.

The school has a very interesting system to teach! And the teacher Lisa follows the method very well and is an excellent teacher! She was the only one among 4 schools that I went to that finally managed to unlock me in German 💓
