The General English course is designed for both foreign teenagers and foreign adults. The course duration is chosen individually, and at the end of the studying, foreign graduates receive a company certificate.

OHC is a family-owned company with an international network that has been operating for more than 50 years.

OHC Core develops everyday communication and foundational fluency with 15 hours of classes per week. OHC Plus combines Core lessons with a daily Special Focus session and provides 20 hours of classes per week. Special Focus options are exam preparation, Business English, and Conversation & Culture. The focus options support preparation for further education, workplace communication, and everyday cultural interaction.

OHC's General English course develops four skills: reading, writing, listening, and speaking. Structured lessons focus on accuracy and confident communication. Students practice English in everyday situations, while exploring the city, and when interacting with others.

A typical day at OHC combines classes of up to 14 students with self-study at school, with teacher support available. The overall program also offers hands-on outdoor lessons. Students learn with participants from different countries.

Progress is tracked through feedback, achievements, and students' reflections on their own experience of studying.
