Professional English starts with a foundation.
Our courses require at least early pre-intermediate English and are not designed for absolute beginners. We focus on communication for your current work, including business, law, medicine and academic settings. General language schools can help you build the basics first. Individual courses may require a higher starting level.
Complete one free evaluation before your first course. Buying materials for self-study or use with your own teacher? Use the automatic evaluation for an indicative starting-level recommendation. It does not include personal feedback, speaking review or a conversation with Mr. Polushin. Enrolled HOE class students receive the fuller teacher-reviewed evaluation after their access is confirmed. At least early pre-intermediate English (A2) is required; some courses need a higher level. You do not repeat placement for every course.

English programmes built around the work your teams actually do.
From one specialist team to coordinated programmes across departments, business segments and sectors, we design learning around real communication needs. Business, technical, legal, medical and academic contexts can each require a different approach.
AI tools. Experienced human judgement.
We combine advanced AI tools with professional teaching knowledge, subject input and human review. The goal is relevant practice, useful feedback and communication people can apply at work.
Effectiveness comes before ticking boxes.
We agree on practical outcomes and review the evidence of progress. If a proposed course is unlikely to work, we will say so and explain why. If a different format, preparation stage or solution would serve you better, we will recommend it. We protect the HOE name by taking results seriously.

Am I learning business or English?
You are learning to communicate in English in a professional context. Meetings, decisions and situations from your industry give language learning a purpose.
Will I receive an automatic recommendation?
Material-only learners receive an automatic, indicative course recommendation. It does not assess pronunciation, speaking, interaction or writing quality. Confirmed HOE class students receive a fuller teacher-reviewed evaluation. Material access does not include a free personal evaluation.
Are the courses in Portuguese or Spanish?
The hub pages and guidance are available in Portuguese, Spanish and English. The courses teach English; support languages vary by course.
How do I access my individual course?
Select Student login on the homepage. Use the course code, username and password supplied for your individual course. For courses linked to your email, select My courses using my registered email and sign in with your ChatGPT account using that same email.
Does the hub bring all my progress together?
The hub brings course access together. Connected individual courses also share work privately with the teacher. You can still keep local backups.
