Knowledge of English is almost a necessity nowadays and it is obvious that without a good level it is difficult to cope in a working or business environment. That's why we are pleased to announce a new partnership with OnWord Education for our coworkers with a discount of up to 15%. OnWord provides individual online English language courses to students of any level. It was created by experienced tutors Pierce Mountney and Ladislav Masopust, who share a similar view on what kind of teaching is most effective. Pierce in particular has been in contact with Telegraph for some time and has completed an English conversation course with our management team.
"OnWord are English language courses that offer students a different approach to that provided by mainstream language schools. Our clients receive not only tutor-led classes, but also a comprehensive system of well-organized materials and activities to work with outside of those classes. Exposing the student to English as often as possible is absolutely essential, and this style of teaching allows for the fastest progress..." explains the authors of the project their approach to teaching.
OnWord Education clients can choose from several teaching options. The most important product is the so-called complete courses, which is one 60-minute lesson with a tutor per week and materials for almost every day. It is also possible to split this lesson into short 20 minute lessons during the week or choose to have a purely conversational lesson. In addition, it is always possible to discuss the details of the course directly with the tutor. By being one-to-one lessons, each course can be tailored to the individual to improve as quickly as possible. A laptop with a microphone and ideally a camera is all that is needed for online lessons.
Collaborating with Telegraph Coworking was in fact something of a natural step, as Pierce Mountney has been in contact with it for some time and knows both house manager Alžběta Smejkalová and Sofia Taranenko, who was a student on his conversation course and who is also in charge of Coworking at the Telegraph. Telegraph Coworking is a well-equipped place that provides its clients with comfort and facilities for their business activities. Thus, OnWord Education provides another opportunity in career growth that a good command of the English language certainly represents. Rapid progression can then mean new opportunities to establish oneself in the country and internationally in any field.
To mark this new partnership, Telegraph coworkers will benefit from a 15% discount on all courses. Because, as the founding trainers conclude, "We value the quality of service that Telegraph offers and would like to bring to its clients another of the added values that this complex has to offer.""

Ladislav Masopust is originally from the Czech Republic.
