In this episode, I explain the Swiss education system (focus on
Canton of Zurich) from kindergarten to university, including
grading, secondary school options and academic paths. I also
share my personal experience — growing up in the Swiss system and
now navigating it as a mum.

This episode is especially helpful for parents, expats, and
anyone curious about life in Switzerland, while also improving
your Swiss German listening skills with clear, slow speech.

Transcripts: The Swiss German transcript of
every episode was written by myself, by hand — because no
software can truly capture the beauty of the
dialect. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Get it here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

German with the world.
