Our Approach to Teaching
Once a week is not enough
We have worked as traditional teachers, and we know that 1 lesson a week and nothing else is not enough for improving one’s English.
Further activities
The course includes materials that the student can choose to work with during the week so that they are exposed to the subject matter as often as possible.
Achieve improvement
Our focus is on your success.
If you wish to improve, and want to put in the effort to do so, OnWord is the right language school for you.
Our clients learn English not only in online lessons with a tutor, but also outside of these lessons through extra resources and activities.
Our Values

- Lessons are worth the money they cost and provide real improvement.
