What Englishdom does

Englishdom is an online English language school operated by Cyprus-incorporated Edusoft Solutions Limited (HE 478100, headquartered in Nicosia). The platform delivers one-on-one and group (up to 7 students) English lessons with over 1,100 vetted teachers who each independently set their own rates, complemented by Speaking Clubs (groups of up to 12), an Online Trainer self-study tool, Interest-Based Clubs, and 16+ specialized courses spanning Business, Travel, Relocation, Conversational, Beginners, and Premium-tier offerings for IT/Finance/Business sectors and exam preparation (IELTS, TOEFL, NMT, EVI). Cambridge University Press content and methodologies are integrated into the curriculum and visibly badged on the site.

The underlying technology stack centers on Prometheus EdTech — proprietary software owned by Edusoft Solutions Limited (copyright 2010–2026) that is being phased in from March 6, 2026 as the platform's new technical foundation. The user-facing surface extends across a self-serve web platform (englishdom.com with Ukrainian, Russian, and English variants), the ED Class mobile app (iOS/Android for lesson attendance, homework, and reminders), and the ED Words vocabulary app (28,000+ words, ~350 thematic sets, spaced-repetition algorithm, custom word creation). Supporting infrastructure includes Cloudflare for CDN/security, multiple payment processors (Ecommpay, WayForPay, PayU) and installment partners (Monobank, PrivatBank), Google Analytics/Amplitude/Omnisend for analytics, and a Telegram-based support chatbot. An "AI Dictionary" is listed in beta within the platform navigation.

Englishdom operates a two-sided marketplace monetized through (a) commission on teacher earnings, (b) student lesson prepayments and recurring monthly subscriptions (with auto-renewal and documented dunning), (c) gift certificates (90-day validity), and (d) a CPA/affiliate publisher program. Distribution relies heavily on word-of-mouth (70% of new students), supplemented by a Refer-a-Friend promotion, owned content channels (podcast on six major platforms, YouTube, social media, blog, weekly newsletter), and a dedicated corporate sales segment (/ua/corp/). Reach spans Ukrainian, Russian, and broader European/English-speaking markets, and the company holds GDPR and PCI DSS-aligned compliance posture with CCPA/COPPA-relevant age-gating.
