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.

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!We’ve taken the A1 and A2 classes with Maria from Voxsprachschule, and it’s been great. Learned at a very high pace, tailored to our skill sets. Maria made the discussions enjoyable and interactive. Highly, highly recommended!
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!
As someone with learning difficulties I find languages very difficult. I have private lessons in person and Fabian, my teacher, has helped so much in all aspects of my German. The lessons are interesting, fun and after a few years struggling to improve I have finally seen a difference. If you are looking for in person lessons I can heartily recommend
(Translated by Google) It is a great pleasure working with Yves. His knowledge and ability to answer all questions give me confidence. I am now motivated to learn German again. Thank you very much, Yves. (Original) Es ist mir eine grosse Freude, mit Yves zu arbeiten. Sein Wissen und seine Fähigkeit, alle Fragen zu beantworten, geben mir Selbstvertrauen. Ich bin jetzt wieder motiviert, Deutsch zu lernen. Vielen Dank, Yves.
(Translated by Google) The Vox language school always made an effort to meet my needs and wishes. My French teacher, Ms. Houria Merrad, was very professional and always encouraged me to keep going, even when things got difficult – with great success. I would gladly go back! (Original) Die Vox-Sprachschule hat sich stehts bemüht auf meine Bedürfnisse & Wünsche einzugehen. Frau Houria Merrad meine Französisch Lehrerin war sehr professionel und hat mich auch wenns schwierig wurde - stehts aufgemuntert weiterzumachen - mit vollem Erfolg. Immer wieder gerne!
For my experience as student pf multiple Languages in multiple countries I find the quality of VOX really outstanding. I had 2 different teachers and they were both very very good and prepared.
Most excellent place to learn German I have found. Good mix of teaching and speaking practice.
Great learning experience! I recommend this school to anybody who wants to get a step forward with his/her speaking skills. Class size of 3 to 5 students allows you to take advantage of every minute of the lessons.
Great experience. Anna is a very thoughtful teacher .Her lessons were engaging, useful, and she was very patient.Always encouraging her students to try. I would highly recommend
Wonderful school, very convenient location and experienced teachers! I took 3 courses here (A1, A2, B1) and passed the B1 test without any problems, even though in the last month I did almost no homework. Many thanks to the teachers for their genuine interest and friendly atmosphere.
Extremely satisfied
I'm currently taking an in-person German class with Lise, and the experience has been excellent. Lise is an amazing teacher—very supportive and always brings a lot of energy to the lessons. We have a lot of fun while learning, and I've gained so much from her classes. She uses a wide range of materials, including articles, special notes, and videos, which keeps things interesting and interactive. I highly recommend her as a teacher!
