Preparation for the Langgymi Entrance-Exam in Zurich
The offers on this page are aimed at pupils of the 6th grade of primary school.
People interested in Gymi from 2nd/3rd secondary school please visit this page: Kurzgymi-Coursess.
Before they can attend the “Gymnasium”, pupils must pass the central entrance examination. That’s an ambitious goal because in order to achieve this the knowledge of the 6th grade material of Primarschule must be above average.
With the reliable LearningCulture course programme we enable them to gain the knowledge and self-confidence they need to achieve this goal.

Our Students Give us Good Marks
In order to ensure and continuously improve the quality of our courses, we depend on feedback from parents. But we also regularly ask our students what they think of our lessons. You can read some of the answers here.

You, the parents, stay informed
Communicating with you is important to us. After three course days, you will receive the first written feedback on your child's performance and commitment. You’ll get the second feedback in the middle of the course and the third after the exam simulation. The coaches also keep a personal "logbook" for all children, which you can consult at any time.

Professional Teaching Aids
We could not find any teaching aids that met our requirements, so we simply developed our own. Our teaching aids for Langgymi explain the material vividly, provide simple memory aids and contain versatile exercises including tasks from old examinations. In addition, the structure is perfectly adapted to our course concept.

Thematic Courses During Summer Holidays, Autumn Holidays and Christmas Holidays
Do you need some additional tricks to solve "Satzaufgaben" in math? Should the essays be more convincing? In our themed courses, students can practise and improve exam-related skills. Specialised coaches show what is important during the exams, provide solutions and take away the fear of the tasks.
