Why Enrol Your Child with Us?
Thorough, Personalised, Proven
Experience & Strategy
Our Gymi course team brings together expertise in pedagogy, psychology, education, languages, and the natural sciences, and has already successfully guided many children on their path to the Gymnasium. In 80 lessons of 45 minutes each, your child will learn all relevant exam content and specific task types in a small class (3 to max. 8 children), while at the same time developing effective learning strategies. We strengthen your child’s confidence in their own ability to learn!
Assessment and exam simulation
In the group course, an assessment is carried out at the beginning and a simulation test is provided after Christmas vacations. This course also includes personal coaching sessions, written feedback and individual vacation plans.
Essay Writing
Essay writing is often neglected in public school, yet it is crucial for the Gymnasium entrance exam. In our course, children learn to write structured and persuasive texts. They can submit essays at any time and receive prompt, detailed feedback – all included in the course fee.
After Hours Help
Our tutors are also available as a resource for your child outside of course hours in an online meeting, at no additional cost. This is particularly helpful if questions arise regarding homework or if a particular topic presents a special challenge.
Professional course materials
We only use preparation materials from YONDY. They guide you through all exam topics in a structured way and systematically build up knowledge. Thanks to detailed solutions provided, your child can continue practicing independently at home and on the go.
Money-Back Guarantee
For over five years, we’ve had the pleasure of supporting numerous satisfied families in Zurich and Winterthur — something we’re truly proud of.

Lesson Times
Based on your schedule, you as a family specify your desired lesson times and we do our best to accomodate your requested lesson time.
Learning Location
Lessons are generally held at your home, but can also be held in a public place such as a library, a school building or another location of your choice.
Course Content
All exam-relevant topics are covered. Step-by-step structure of theory, exercises and previous exam tasks based on your child's current level of learning. In a one-on-one or two-on-one setting, your child can receive even more targeted and individual attention than in group lessons.
Exam Simulation
During the course, an exam simulation is included, which gives an insight into your child's current learning level. The child can gain exam experience and receive individual feedback on their learning.
Single or two-person setting
We will be happy to put together a personalized quote for you based on your budget. Generally, fewer lessons are required in a private setting than in group lessons, as we can focus more specifically and individually on the respective learning level. If your child finds a learning partner, we will also be happy to arrange a two-person setting.
Teachers
Based on the desired lesson times and location, we will select suitable teachers for German and mathematics, who we will be happy to introduce to you personally. They are experienced tutors with solid specialist knowledge in the respective subject, as well as strong social skills and a high degree of flexibility. Our teachers are also available for your child outside lesson times and will be happy to help with any questions.
Teaching materials
We develop knowledge with the help of the teaching material YONDY which has been compiled and tested by secondary school teachers. The teaching material is an integral part of the one-on-one and two-on-one setting however and changes to this can be made by mutual agreement.
