Your step-by-step plan
Individual trajectory. Flexibility. Practical training.
Adaptive learning makes English personal. It’s not about the rules in a textbook. It’s about your goals, your schedule and your results. This is how we work at Business Language.
This is an approach where the program adapts to you. It starts with diagnostics. This is followed by a plan that takes into account the level, goals, and most common mistakes. Instead of a one-size-fits-all course, you get your own development trajectory. Each lesson has a practical goal.
You are busy. You have specific tasks. There is no time for unnecessary theory. Customized training focuses energy on real results. You need to prepare for an interview – we do a mock interview. If you have a presentation to make, we train your pitch in English. This saves time and increases motivation.
The plan is built around your goals. Each stage is measured. There are no unnecessary repetitions. You develop exactly what brings results. This means faster progress and tangible changes in 1-3 months.
A combination of short online modules, individual lessons and conversational practice. Live sessions to practice real-life dialogues. You choose the rhythm. The program adapts to your working hours.
Work through cases, role-playing games, simulations. It’s one thing to read the rules. It’s another to say difficult phrases in a negotiation scenario. Feedback from the teacher identifies weaknesses and gives specific exercises to correct them.
Platforms and artificial intelligence are useful for repetition, pronunciation analysis, and progress tracking. They make routines more efficient. But an algorithm without a teacher is just an app. The best results come from combining technology with a live teacher who knows the context of your work.
3-minute “pitch rehearsals”. Say a short description of the project out loud every day.
● Role-playing scenarios. Practice standard work dialogues once a week.
● Micro vocabulary tasks. 5 new words in context every day. Return to them in 3 days.
Express Pronunciation. 10 minutes daily with recording and analysis of errors.
Work cases are collected. Based on them, modules for negotiations, presentations and correspondence are created. The instructor personalizes the task for each participant. The team receives short homework exercises to consolidate. The result: faster implementation of communication standards and fewer errors in business correspondence.
● The illusion of “automatic progress”. Just installing the application is not enough. You need pedagogical support.
● Wrong metrics. Measure practical results, not just the number of exercises completed.
Overload. Regular short exercises are better than rare long sessions.
You start speaking faster. You are less nervous at interviews. You prepare presentations more easily. English ceases to be an abstract skill. It becomes a tool that helps you achieve your goals.
Adapted learning doesn’t promise miracles overnight. It gives you the tools. And it requires consistency. If you are ready to invest time, it will return it with a profit ????.

The private medicine market in Ukraine continues to show growth despite the war and economic challenges. According to experts, the private sector is increasingly competing with state institutions, forming new standards of quality and service.
“We see that Ukrainians have started to invest more in health. If in the 2000s private medicine was perceived as an addition to state hospitals, now it is a full-fledged alternative”, – said the director of Oxford Medical network Tetyana Sidorova.
According to Pro-Consulting, before the war, the share of private medicine was about 10-15%. However, the COVID-19 pandemic and then military conditions accelerated the transformation. The development of telemedicine, the expansion of networks in bedroom communities and the emergence of highly specialized areas were key factors in strengthening the market position.
Oxford Medical is the largest network of multidisciplinary medical centers in Ukraine, founded in 2005. The network unites dozens of branches in different regions, providing a full range of medical services: from outpatient appointments and laboratory diagnostics to surgery, dentistry and inpatient care.
The development company Alliance Novobud announces an important event – the Illinsky House clubhouse has been assigned an address: 21 Naberezhno-Khreshchatytska Street, Kyiv, Podil district.

The global labor market has no borders anymore. Ukrainian specialists are increasingly being interviewed by international companies where English is the working language. And even if you are a super-specialist in your field, without the ability to speak English clearly and confidently, your chances of getting a job are sharply reduced.
English at a job interview is not about perfect grammar. It’s about whether the recruiter or technical interviewer will understand how you think, whether you can explain your decisions, and whether you can interact with an international team.
In this article, we will analyze:
● the differences between HR and technical interviews
● what English skills are important for interviews
● how to answer typical questions
● what words and phrases will help you sound confident;
● how to prepare so that you don’t look confused.
An HR interview is the first barrier. It tests not only English, but also soft skills: communication, motivation, and the ability to fit into a team.
1. Tell me about yourself.
2. What are your strengths and weaknesses?
3. Why do you want to work for our company?
4. Describe a challenge you faced at work and how you handled it.
5. Where do you see yourself in five years?
It is important not to memorize ready-made answers, but to have a structure. For example:
● Briefly: who you are, what experience you have.
Specifics: an example from life or work.
Conclusion: a positive conclusion.
Example:
“One of my strengths is adaptability. For example, when my team switched to a completely new tool last year, I quickly learned it and helped others onboard. I believe this skill will help me integrate smoothly into new projects.”
The main thing here is to prove that you can solve problems. But you need English to explain the logic:
● how you approached the problem
● why you chose this particular algorithm or technology
● how your solution works.
● IT: solve an algorithmic problem and explain your thought process in English.
Engineering: describe the process you have optimized.
Marketing: present a case study where the strategy has yielded results.
The formula Problem → Solution → Result works here.
“The problem was slow query performance. I optimized the database indexes, which reduced execution time from 15 seconds to 2. As a result, the system could handle more users simultaneously.”
1. Professional vocabulary. You should be fluent in the terms of your specialty.
2. Stable phrases for HR questions. In order not to get lost and start answering confidently.
3. Ability to paraphrase. If you forget a word, explain it in another way.
4. Pronunciation. Not an accent, but intelligibility.
5. The pace of speech. Calm and even, without fuss.
● I would describe myself as…
● One of my key strengths is…
● I’ m currently focusing on improving…
● What excites me about this role is…
● I’ m motivated by opportunities to…
● The main challenge was…
● I decided to approach it by…
● My solution was based on…
● This resulted in…
● If I had more time, I would improve it by…
1. Answering too briefly. To the question “Tell me about yourself ” they say: “I am a developer with 5 years of experience ” – and that’s it. You need at least 2-3 sentences with details.
2. They translate verbatim from Ukrainian. This results in strange phrases like “I have such experience ” instead of “I have experience in…”.
3. They focus on grammar. This is distracting. It is more important for recruiters to understand the essence.
4. Excessive modesty. English culture allows you to talk about achievements directly.
1. Make a list of typical HR and technical questions.
2. Write down your answers. Don’t cram, but make notes for reference.
3. Record yourself on a dictaphone. You will hear where you get confused and which words are “stuck”.
4. Find a partner or teacher. Role-playing interviews are the best training.
5. Go through several fake interviews. Even with an AI agent or a friend.
The secret is simple: don’t correct yourself in the middle of a sentence. If you make a mistake, finish the thought. The recruiter will understand the meaning.
Energy, confidence, and clarity of explanation are more important.
Phrases that save you if you get stuck:
● Let me rephrase that.
● What I mean is…
● Could you please clarify the question?
That’s a good question, let me think for a second.
● You have 3-4 sentences for Tell me about yourself.
● Ready-made answers to the “strengths and weaknesses”.
Examples of projects with a clear structure (Problem → Solution → Result).
● Vocabulary of your profession in English.
● Fallback phrases in case you forget a word.
English at an interview is not about perfect grammar. It’s about the ability to communicate your thoughts clearly and confidently. Therefore, preparing for an interview in English is very important. If you know the basic answers, practice professional vocabulary, and rehearse the interview situation at least a few times, you will have a huge advantage.
Every interview is a training session. Even if you don’t get an offer, the next one will be easier. And with the right preparation, English will no longer be a barrier and will become your weapon.

According to the Serbian Economist, Montenegrin President Jakov Milatovic said that the country’s migration policy should be revised, emphasizing that the influx of foreigners has made housing and rent unaffordable for Montenegrin citizens. According to him, the real estate market is overloaded, and young Montenegrins are deprived of the opportunity to rent housing and combine study with work, Adria TV reported.
“Because of the large number of foreigners, a square meter of housing has become a luxury, rent has increased many times, and young people who could work, including while studying, have been left without the opportunity to earn for themselves and their families. It’s time to change the approach: first jobs and apartments for our citizens, and then open doors for foreigners,” said Milatovic.
He emphasized that migration policy should be “responsible and fair”, and the priority is to provide housing and jobs for locals and create conditions for the return of those who have gone abroad.
After 2022, Montenegro faced a marked increase in the number of foreigners, which sharply increased housing and rental prices. This was especially felt in Podgorica, Budva and seaside regions.
In the case of stricter rules of stay and rent, foreigners living in Montenegro are likely to look for alternatives in neighboring countries:
– Serbia is the most likely destination. The country is distinguished by its lenient migration legislation, proximity, common language space and developed infrastructure for foreigners. Belgrade, Novi Sad and Nis have already become centers of attraction for migrants, especially from Russia, Ukraine and CIS countries.
– Bosnia and Herzegovina is also attractive for migrants because of low housing prices, although it is much less developed in terms of infrastructure and labor market.
– Croatia – as an EU country remains an option, but high real estate prices and visa restrictions make it less accessible.
Thus, the most real “beneficiary” of a possible tightening of migration policy in Montenegro will be Serbia, where large migrant communities have already formed and where the authorities are interested in attracting foreigners to stimulate the economy.
According to the results of the 2023 census, there were 122,744 immigrants in Montenegro, i.e. people who lived outside the country for at least a year and later returned or resettled.
Of these, 35.3% were citizens of foreign countries (≈ 43,268 people).
Among the countries of origin of immigrants:
– Serbia – 45,000 persons;
– Russia – 15,000 persons;
– Germany – 7,000 persons;
– Ukraine – 3,000 persons.
In the municipality of Budva in 2023 among the inhabitants were 14 % of Russians and 4 % of Ukrainians.

According to the results of the auction, the state-owned enterprise “Forests of Ukraine” contracted 99% of the volume of round timber and firewood for the fourth quarter of this year, the press service of the SE reported on Telegram.
“Demand for wood continues to grow. (…) The average price of roundwood rose to UAH 6,800/cubic meter (in the third quarter — UAH 5,700/cubic meter, in the second — UAH 5,400/cubic meter). The average price of firewood for industrial use is UAH 2,300 per cubic meter (in the third quarter — UAH 1,800 per cubic meter, in the second — UAH 1,500 per cubic meter),” the report says.
As noted, the starting prices of the auctions were lower than the sales prices in the third quarter. The state-owned enterprise “Forests of Ukraine” tried to restrain price dynamics, but in conditions of free competition, the final prices are determined exclusively by demand.
To increase supply, Lisy Ukrainy put all available resources up for auction (except for firewood for the population, the social sector, and resources for the Armed Forces of Ukraine). A small percentage of products that buyers rejected were immediately put up for additional auction. Products for which there was no demand or which had a high price were put up for Dutch auction to determine the market price.
According to the state-owned enterprise, 1.5 million cubic meters of wood in the second half of the year was supplied to customers under forward contracts at a fixed price, meaning that processors were able to avoid the risk of rising product costs in advance.
In addition, during July-September, timber harvesting consistently exceeded 1 million cubic meters.
“As for increasing harvesting, this issue requires comprehensive solutions, most of which are currently beyond the competence of foresters,” said Forests of Ukraine, adding that the volume of main use logging over the past three years has remained virtually unchanged, within the range of 5.6-5.7 million cubic meters.
