About us

Sowa is a place where learning is calm, attentive and effective. Since 2014, we have been helping children and adults reach their goals — at school, in exams and in a new country.

Our story

We started out as a small group of maths and language teachers who believed that anyone can understand difficult material if it’s explained patiently and in plain, human terms.

Over time we were joined by English teachers and teachers of Polish as a foreign language. Today our students come from more than a dozen countries, and we teach in four languages.

In Polish, Ukrainian and Russian alike, “sowa” means “owl” — the wise bird that sees more than others. That’s what we want to be for our students.

Our values

Patience

There’s no such thing as a silly question. We explain as many times as it takes.

Clarity

A clear plan, measurable goals and regular reports.

Openness

Students from all over the world feel at home with us.

Growth

Our teachers keep training and sharing their experience with one another.

How we work

  1. Every course begins with a level assessment and a conversation about goals.
  2. We match teachers not only to the subject but also to the student’s personality.
  3. We combine the requirements of the Polish national curriculum with hands-on practice and engaging materials.
  4. Parents and adult students receive regular updates on progress.

Where to find us

Our centre is right in the heart of Warsaw, just a few minutes from the metro. We also welcome students to online lessons from anywhere in the world.
