This course contains the use of artificial intelligence.
Your English is fine until the meeting turns to job grading or global mobility, and then you are translating in your head while the conversation moves on without you. General English courses do not fix this. The gap is not grammar. It is the specific terms nobody taught you. Here are 523 tools to close it: 14 working files, 257 ready-to-use procedures, templates, matrices and question lists, 245 terms, models and methods explained, and 7 services shown on screen.
Open a lecture, take the terms and the template, use them in your next meeting or interview.
Where professional English actually breaks
You understand every word and still cannot say what you mean, because the phrase you need is a fixed expression you have never heard. You write a policy and it reads as translated, which quietly costs you authority. In an interview you describe your work in general language while another candidate uses the exact term. The vocabulary is finite and learnable. It just is not in any general course.
What changes after this course
You name your work in the terms your colleagues use. You follow a meeting about pay structures, performance or mobility without a dictionary. Your documents read as written and not as translated. In an interview you answer with a structure and the right words. And you can run an interview in English yourself and assess the answers.

Who is teaching
I am Mike, the #1 HR instructor on Udemy, with 1,800,000+ course enrollments from 170,000 students, and the author of about 200 books on Amazon. I built the people system at Preply as it became a unicorn and worked at Wargaming, iDeals and Alfa-Bank across 20 years in HR. I hold PHRi, SHRM-CP and HCI sHRBP certifications and represent HRCI in Eastern Europe.
English is my second language too. When I first thought about an international certification, my English was so-so, and that stopped me: how would I sit an exam in English? When I finally started to prepare, the questions seemed strange at first, as if the English in them were a special one. As I went on, I understood them better and better and began to see how they were worded. Later, at Preply, up to 30 percent of the people in our Kyiv office were foreigners, so in meetings and even in the kitchen we tried to speak English. And when I was working hard on my English, for a long time it felt as if I stood still, and then I found myself talking freely with foreigners. Progress comes in a jump.
